Initial clashes[edit]

Clashes between two communities in Shamli and Muzaffarnagar, India began on 27 August 2013. The

original cause of the rioting is disputed according to bipartisan claims largely concerning the affected

communities.[12]

In this case, the cause of this rioting alternates between a traffic accident and an eve-

teasing incident. According to the first version, the cause was a minor traffic accident involving some

youths which then spiralled out of control when it eventually took on religious overtones.[13]

In the second

version, a girl from the Hindu Jat community was allegedly harassed in an Eve-teasing incident by one

Muslim youth in Kawal village.[14][15]

In retaliation, Hindu relatives of the girl in question, Sachin Singh and

Gaurav Singh,[16][17]

killed the youth named Shahnawaz Qureshi.[18]

The two brothers were lynched by a

Muslim mob when they tried to escape.[17]

The police arrested eleven members of the girl's family for the

killing of the Muslim youth.[15]

According to some locals, the police did not act against the killers of the

Hindu brothers.[15]

According to police records, Gaurav and Sachin picked a fight with Shahnawaz over a

motorcycle accident. While it has been widely reported that the fight was sparked off when Shahnawaz

harassed Gaurav and Sachins cousin sister, the FIR in the murder makes no mention of sexual

harassment or molestation.[13]

NDTV carried a contradictory report on the Kawal village incident. The girl who was allegedly harassed by

Shahnawaz commented that she had not gone to Kawal or known anybody by name of Shahnawaz,[19]

but

she indicated that harassment by Muslim youth were common in Kawwal. There were no mention of

harassment in police records on that particular day.[19]

Shahnawaz's father claims that the problem started

when their vehicles collided .[19]

In the FIR registered for Shahnawaz's death, five people along with Sachin

and Gaurav were named to be responsible for his death. The reports mentions that the seven men entered

Shahnawaz's home, took him out and killed him with swords and knives. Shahnawaz had later died on the

way to hospital.[19]

In the FIR registers for Sachin and Gaurav's death, 7 other men were reported to be

responsible, with the root cause to be an altercation between a person named as Mujassim and Gaurav

after a bike accident.[19]

Police are yet to arrest anyone named in the FIR to avoid anyone to be falsely

implicated.[19]

After news of the killings spread, the members of both communities attacked each other. The police took

possession of the three dead bodies, and temporarily brought the situation under control. The authorities

also deployed Provincial Armed Constabulary personnel in the village.[20]

Gathering of masses[edit]

The killing of the three youths in Kawal village started echoing across the district. On 30 August, two days

after the incident, local Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) and Congress leaders had hijacked a Muslim meeting

demanding justice for the Kawal incident.[21]

Also, local Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders are alleged to

have given an incendiary speech instigating the Hindu farmers on the same day. A First Information

Report (FIR) has been lodged against all the leaders. After the two meetings, the farmers were attacked

and killed.[21]

Jauli Canal Incident[edit]

Clashes between the two communities occurred at low frequencies for the next two weeks. Around 2000

Jats returning from the Mahapanchayat held at Kawwal were ambushed by a Muslim[22]

mob armed with

assault rifles and other sophisticated weapons near Jolly Canal on 7 September.[23]

The mobs had set fire

on 18 tractor trollies and 3 motorbikes. According to the eyewitness accounts, the bodies were dumped into

the canal.[23]

Although six bodies have been recovered, hundreds are still missing.[23]

District Magistrate

agreed that many bodies were still missing, but doubted whether the missing people were killed or had

migrated earlier from the village.[23]

Survivors of the Jolly Canal incident added that the policemen who

were watching the assault did not help the victims, as they had said that 'they do not have orders to

act'.[22]

This Jolly canal incident aroused Jats to go on a rampage against Muslims with the claim that the

latter were responsible for the killings.[23]

This led to the riots, which killed around 43 people(including a

news reporter and a photographer).[24]

The casualties occurred before the Army was deployed and a curfew

was imposed in Muzaffarnagar and its surrounding Shamli district.

Even with the curfew and use of army the clashes continued for the next three days, with casualties

increasing to 43 by 12 September 2013. A state home department official said that 38 people have died in

Muzaffarnagar, 3 in Baghpat and one each in Saharanpur and Meerut.

Repercussions[edit]

On 30 October, 3 people were killed and 1 injured after a clash between two communities in

Mohammadpur Raisingh village of Muzaffarnagar district. Police Forces were deployed and an alert was

sounded in the entire district. The incident is widely seen as repercussion of the violence in September.[25]

Sexual violence[edit]

The first incident of gang-rape came to light in the aftermath of the riots from the village of Fugana in Jogiya

Kheda.[26]

Two fresh cases of rape were registered in October.[27]

It was reported on 15 November 2013

that a total of 13 rape cases and sexual harassment were registered over the past two months of rioting

and the report named 111 people in the incidents but no arrests had been made till then.[28]

Action[edit]

Approximately 1,000 army troops were deployed and curfew was imposed in the violence-hit areas. 10,000

Provincial Armed Constabulary (PAC) personnel, 1,300 Central Reserve Police Force(CRPF) troopers and

1,200 Rapid Action Force (RAF) personnel were deployed to control the situation.[29]

Around ten to twelve thousand preventive arrests were made by Police as of 11 September 2013. They

cancelled 2,300 arms licenses, seized 2,000 arms, and filed seven cases under the National Security Act.[3]

Approximately 50,000 people have been displaced.[10]

Some of them took shelter at ten state-run relief

camps.[3]

Investigation[edit]

Seventeen FIRs have been lodged against leaders including one for the Mahapanchayat (great council)

which organised by the Bharatiya Kisan Union leaders.[5][30]

The Uttar Pradesh Government announced a

one-member judicial commission composed of Justice Vishnu Sahay, a retired Allahabad High Court judge

on 9 September 2013. The commission has been asked to submit a report about the violence within two

months.[31]

The UP government also removed five senior officials of the police and the administration from

Muzaffarnagar for their poor handling of the situation.[32]

Misuse of Social Media[edit]

BJP MLA Sangeet Som was arrested for alleged involvement in fake video uploading case depicting Hindu

youth brutally murdered by Muslim mob and making provocative speeches.[33][34][35][36]

Sting Operation[edit]

A sting operation done by Headlines Today revealed that UP Minister Azam Khan ordered Police Officers

to release Muslims and not take action against them.[37][38]

However, Azam Khan has denied the charges.[39]

Response[edit]

Political parties such as Bahujan Samaj Party,[40]

Bharatiya Janata Party,[41]

Rashtriya Lok Dal[42]

and

Muslim organizations including Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind[43]

demanded the dismissal of rulingSamajwadi

Party government and imposition of President's rule in the state.

Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde informed the press that he had already warned the Uttar Pradesh

government about the escalating communal tensions there, for which Akhilesh Yadav had promised

preventive measures.[44]

Political Impact[edit]

Azam Khan's Displeasure

Senior Samajwadi Party leader and Minority Welfare Minister Azam Khan was absent from Partys national

executive meeting which was held at Agra. He is reportedly unhappy with the manner in which the district

administration handled the situation in Muzaffarnagar.[45]

Sompal Shastri's refusal

Sompal Shastri, who was a candidate of Samajwadi Party from Baghpat, refused to contest Lok

Sabha polls under the Samajwadi Party banner. In a letter written to party president Mulayam Singh Yadav,

Mr. Shastri said he was not in a position to contest the Lok Sabha polls from Baghpat after the violence in

which over 38 people were killed. The incidents of communal violence in Muzaffarnagar, Shamli and

Baghpat were unfortunate, he said.[46]

Mahapanchayat in Sardhana[edit]

A mahapanchayat (great council) of 40 villages in Sardhana on 29 September 2013 to protest against the

Uttar Pradesh government charging the local BJP MLA Sangeet Singh Som under the stringent National

Security Act. The crowd became violent when the police began to brandish sticks. The situation turned

tense when a rumour spread that a youth injured in police action had died. Crowd set fire police jeeps and

other vehicles.[47]

Reactions[edit]

BJP MLAs and workers and people from a particular

community are being targeted by your (Samajwadi Party)

government.

Uma Bharti[48]

From Muzaffarnagar violence, administrative failure of SP

government has once again come to fore. It has proved that

Akhilesh government has bowed in front of criminals and it

should immediately resign

Swami Prasad Maurya[49]

The violence in Muzaffarnagar is on and government is a mute

spectator to it...The government is doing politics of

communalism

Naseemuddin Siddiqui[50]

SP Govt's track record in this tenure is bad. Haven't been able

to control Communal Forces in UP. Even BSP's was better.

Digvijaya Singh, on Twitter

The district administration should have taken measures to

prevent the people from Haryana and Delhi from reaching the

venue of the Mahapanchayat. The district magistrate should

not look at Lucknow always for instructions. He should have

exercised his discretion and prevented the people from other

states from reaching Muzaffarnagar.India is a free country and

there is no restriction on people from other states coming to

UP. However, they should have behaved responsibly

Azam Khan[51]

I had warned the state Chief Minister of the build up. The

number of cases of communal disturbances have increased in

UP in 2013. I spoke to UP CM and told him tension is rising

and arrangements need to be made. He said he would make

arrangements

Sushil Kumar Shinde[44]

Whatever happened in Muzaffarnagar started a long time ago.

Several incidents happened and if you look closely you will

realise that some people were carefully planning this kind of

violence

Akhilesh Yadav[52]

Relief Camps[edit]

State Government has organised relief camps in Muzaffarnagar and Shamli districts for riot victims of 9,000

families, with over 50,000 members. [53]
