Sambhal violence a calculated plot to obstruct mosque survey: Panel report
Acting on the order, the advocate commissioner sought adequate police deployment to ensure peaceful execution of the survey.
On November 24, 2024, communal violence erupted in Sambhal, resulting in the deaths of four individuals. The Uttar Pradesh government appointed a three-member commission, headed by Justice Devendra Kumar Arora, to investigate whether the violence was a spontaneous incident or part of a pre-planned scheme to hinder a survey of the disputed Jama Masjid-Hari Har Mandir site.
The findings of the commission, released in a report tabled in the state assembly, conclusively stated that the violence was a "calculated criminal conspiracy" orchestrated to obstruct the court-ordered survey.
