Schools closed, internet snapped in Sambhal after mosque survey violence kills 4

Four people were killed, and several others, including 20 police officers, were injured as hundreds of protesters opposing a mosque survey clashed with police in Uttar Pradesh’s Sambhal on Sunday. In response to the violence, authorities have imposed strict security measures, enforced prohibitory orders, shut down schools and colleges and suspended internet services in the area.
The survey was conducted following a court directive issued in response to a complaint alleging that the mosque was built after the Mughals demolished a temple.
