<p><strong>Sambhal Violence:</strong> Two days after communal violence erupted during a court-mandated survey of the Shahi Jama Masjid in Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh, life is gradually returning to normal in the affected region. Schools reopened, and several shops resumed operations on Tuesday, but internet services in Sambhal tehsil remain suspended as a precautionary measure. Authorities have also restricted the entry of outsiders and public representatives until 30 November.</p> <p>Superintendent of Police (SP) Krishan Kumar Bishnoi confirmed the arrest of 27 individuals, including 25 men and two women, in the past 24 hours. “There are different CCTV footages, they are being scanned... We have prepared a list of more than 100 people who actively participated in this violence. They have been identified and will arrested in due course of time. Anyone who is innocent will not be sent to jail, but action will certainly be taken against anyone seen in the CCTV footage with stone in hand and if he has pelted stone on the police,” Bishnoi told news agency PTI.</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">VIDEO | "A total of 27 people - 25 men and two women - have been arrested in the last 24 hours and they have been sent to jail.
