Probe ordered; NSA likely to be invoked

Violent clashes erupted in Banbhoolpura area of Haldwani district on the evening of February 8, when civic authorities razed two structures - Masjid Mariam (mosque) and Abdul Razzaq Zakaria madrasa alleging that they were illegally built on state government ("nazool") land. As workers from the Haldwani Municipal Corporation and Nainital administration razed the 20-year-old structure, residents of the area set afire several vehicles, a police station and hurled stones at the demolition team as well as police personnel, according to police.

The violence has left at least five dead, so far, and left over 150 injured.
