Located in Alwar’s Raghunathgarh village under the Naugaon police station area, the small village is in the news for constant arbitrary and targeted raids by Rajasthan Police in an attempt to bust cyber crime gangs allegedly operating from the Mewat region.
Amidst heavy police presence, a resounding call for justice echoed through the campus of Jamia Millia Islamia University on Monday as students from various states united under the “Mewati Student Union” banner in solidarity to denounce the recent outbreak of violence in Haryana’s Nuh district.
A call for a Hindu Mahapanchayat in Nuh district against alleged cow slaughter has been given by VHP, Bajrang Dal and Gau Raksha Dal Haryana on Sunday.
It cannot be dismissed as a coincidence that a Muslim-majority district in the National Capital Region is undergoing abysmal underdevelopment in most human development indices.
On December 12, Bajrang Dal member Jeet Vashisht entered Nuh (Mewat) district in Haryana with more than 500 cars filled with members and supporters of the Hindutva organisation. In a video posted by Vashisht on his Facebook account, which has over 54,000 followers, he claimed that they have entered Mewat to "saffronise it".
