The Haryana administration continued to raze "illegal constructions" with bulldozers in violence-hit Nuh, for the third day on Saturday. The Sub Divisional Magistrate Ashwani Kumar said that owners of some illegal structures were also involved in the violence during the Braj Mandal religious yatra which has killed six people so far even though the Nuh Deputy Commissioner Prashant Panwar had earlier denied that the demolition was linked to the recent violence.

Many houses and shops were bulldozed on Friday with Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij indicating that the demolitions were part of action against those involved in the communal clashes. Around 250 shanties of migrants living Tauru town and other areas in neighbouring Nuh district were bulldozed on Friday for encroaching upon government land.
