Tensions persist in India’s Gurugram biz hub amid clashes FMTNews FMTWorld
NEW DELHI: Traffic was lighter than usual today and some streets were deserted in the Gurugram business hub south of the Indian capital Delhi as authorities said the death toll from two days of Hindu-Muslim clashes in the region had mounted to seven.
“The conspirators are being continuously identified. A total of 116 people have been arrested so far,” Manohar Lal Khattar, the chief minister of Haryana state where Gurugram is located, said today. While schools in most of the area were permitted to reopen today, several institutions opted to suspend physical classes and move online amid concerns for safety.
Security forces were also on alert for planned protests by Hindu nationalist groups, including in the capital Delhi.
