Brand Gurugram Takes A Hit After Haryana Clashes
NDTV
Analysts said the violence is worrying for the message it sends to businesses at a time India is seeking more investment under its "Make in India" campaign
Communal clashes in Delhi's neighbour Gurugram this week have worsened religious fault lines in the region and exposed a booming business hub to threats of violence and disruption, authorities and analysts said.
Seven people were killed and over 70 injured in rioting in Nuh and Gurugram districts of Haryana after a Hindu procession was targeted and a mosque attacked in retaliation.
The 48-hour cycle of violence which was put out on Wednesday has brought to the fore Hindu-Muslim tensions brewing in the region since 2015, a year after the BJP came to power in the centre and Haryana.
