A family rides on a motorcycle on a deserted road during a curfew imposed by authorities following clashes between Hindus and Muslims in Nuh district of the northern state of Haryana, India, August 1, 2023. Six people have been arrested," said Mayank Mishra, assistant superintendent of police in Panipat district, 200 km away from where the trouble began last week. Tension between members of India's majority Hindu community and minority Muslims has periodically flared into deadly violence for generations. Despite the latest trouble, the district magistrate of business hub of Gurugram lifted prohibitory orders in place since last week, saying that "normalcy has returned". Some Muslims in Gurugram say men have been coming to their communities and threatening them with violence unless they leave.
