Sambhal witnessed intense violence on Sunday when a large crowd assembled near a mosque and began chanting slogans as a survey team resumed its work.

The Yogi government in Uttar Pradesh is implementing strict measures against Sambhal rioters, including public identification posters and bounties. Offenders will be held financially liable for the damage.

Posters of those allegedly involved in the recent communal violence to be put up in Uttar Pradesh, says the state government following communal altercations that took place in Sambhal.
