The Bulandshahr violence was triggered over the alleged slaughtering of around 30-32 cows.
Was the violence part of a conspiracy?
Around 10 lakh Muslims had gathered in the city for last 10 days. Roads were blocked. Who all came for Ijtema? What arrangement did the police make for this congregation?
According to residents of Syana village, illegal cow slaughtering is not a new thing for Bulandshahr. However, it was a first case of cow slaughtering in Syana.
The recovery of the slaughtered cows triggered the violence that led to the killing of Police Inspector Subodh Kumar Singh and civilian Sumit.
