"... there is an apprehension of causing tension, annoyance, agitation, damage of public and private property and disturbance of public peace and tranquility in the district Nuh..," Haryana Additional Chief Secretary (Home) Anurag Rastogi said in an order.

The suspension order was given "to stop the spread of misinformation and rumours" through social media platforms, such as WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, etc.

At least five people, including two home guards and a naib imam of a mosque, were killed in the communal clashes that erupted during the Braj Mandal Jalabhishek Yatra in Nuh last year and spilled into the neighbouring districts.
