It is being said on social media that this video of Bittu  was shot on the morning of July 31, the day of the violence.

Monu Manesar, the prime suspect in the Nasir-Junaid murder case, had also made an open announcement. He had said that he would participate in the Brij Mandal Yatra to be taken out in Mewat, a Muslim-dominated area. The communal clashes in the Nuh district of Haryana have claimed six lives, including two home guards, a cleric and four others.

The violence that started in Nuh also spread to Faridabad, Palwal, Hodal, Gurugram and Sohna districts of Haryana. Nuh is still tense and under curfew since Monday. Many people have been injured in the rioting, and the Haryana government has been under extreme pressure and also sought help from central forces.

The state government has ordered a probe and senior IPS officers are now involved in an investigation registered in Nuh and other districts.
