The latest in the series are 1. A traders’ group in Khansar town, in Uttarakhand’s Chamoli district has asked around 15 Muslim families to leave the area by December 31. This decision was made during a meeting after a rally where local Hindu traders raised provocative slogans. 2. A Mazar in Uttarakhand’s Haridwar was demolished on Saturday by the district authorities who claimed it had been constructed illegally. On February 8, the administration demolished a mosque and madrasa in Banbhoolpura, in the city of Haldwani in the Nainital district claiming that they were built illegally on government land – even while the matter was underway in the Uttarakhand High Court.In such anti-Muslim episodes, the law enforcement authorities and the rulers remain mum, easing the anti-social Hindutva extremists’ hooliganism.
