After being shut since July 31 due to violence, schools reopened in Haryana's Nuh district today. The schools were closed after communal violence erupted in the district. The clashes erupted in Muslim-dominated Nuh when a Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) procession, or the Braj Mandal Yatra, was attacked by mobs on July 31. Gurugram also witnessed stray incidents of violence. Six people, including two home guards and a cleric, died in the violence.

The Haryana State Transport Services will also be fully restored on August 11. The authorities also urged Muslim clerics to offer Friday prayers at their homes and encourage people to follow suit.
