At least five persons were killed and over a dozen injured in the violence that erupted on February 8 in Uttarakhand’s Haldwani district after the administration conducted a demolition drive where a mosque and a madrasa stood, allegedly on Nazool land.
The administration claims to be conducting a drive against all encroachment. But on the ground, it is chiefly Muslim sites that have been razed to rubble.
For months, Hindutva organisations have spearheaded a campaign of hate against Uttarakhand’s Muslims residents that has been amplified by the chief minister.
No doubt not only the Haldawani District Administration but the state machinery also, especially the Uttarakhand government led by Pushkar Dhami, is required a lot of explaination because without its green signal such an action would not have been undertaken by the District Administration.
