2015 Ballabhgarh riot
The Ballabhgarh riot of 2015 was a communal clash that occurred on February 20, 2015, in Ballabhgarh, a town in the Faridabad district of Haryana, India. The unrest was sparked by a violent altercation between individuals from two religious communities, leading to widespread riots characterized by arson, vandalism, and physical confrontations. The conflict resulted in significant property damage, injuries to numerous individuals, and raised concerns over communal tensions in the region. In response to the escalating violence, local authorities imposed a curfew and deployed police forces to restore order. The incident highlighted the underlying socio-political issues in India, including religious polarization and the challenges of communal harmony in multi-religious societies. Investigations into the incident initiated discussions about law enforcement measures and the need for community engagement to prevent future occurrences.
