The stories of Muslims in #Karauli need to be told.
Today, I along with @Samriddhi0809 was in the violence inflicted area the entire day. We met families from both the communities. But the pain that the Muslims have incurred is beyond what one could imagine. 1

Somebody claims to have lost stock of 5lac Rupees and someone says that they lost over 35lacs.
Someone's 18-year-old son was assaulted by police and someone could not stop crying since they have never seen a time like this before. 2

Shops have been burnt, with nothing but debris left. People's houses & mosque been marked as restricted area stating it's a 'Crime Scene' but the main accused still roams free. While most of the shops burnt were of Muslims, most to be arrested were also Muslims. 3

It was saddening to see that most of the people alleged that the police did not do anything. If they had wanted, they could have stopped this from happening.
The Muslim locals did not blame their fellow Hindu citizens but did say that their support could have helped stop it. 4

The City was opened today from 9am to 5pm after 9 days of curfew. Right before 5pm, the police force started to ask people to shut their shops. While they did so, there was a sense of grief and anxiety in the place.
The people are still scared. They still live in fear. 5
