Leaders of the Sangharsh Samiti submitted a memorandum to the local administration demanding that the Waqf Board be abolished and identification documents of migrants be checked. Leaders of the Devbhoomi Sangharsh Samiti warned the government not to take the issue lightly and help Hindus live peacefully in the state “rather than helping outsiders without valid documents”. Professor Harish Kumar Thakur of the Himachal Pradesh University’s political science department said, “Since religious issues are quite sensitive, the government and the administration have to act judiciously and as per the directions of the court since the matter is sub-judice.”
