Like Rehmat Ali who lives in sector 70A.
"Some people came on motorcycles Tuesday night, threatening us that if we don't leave they would set fire to our slum. Police are here since the night but my family is scared and we are leaving the city," the autorickshaw driver from West Bengal said.
Advertisement"We can come back when the situation improves," he added.
Police have asked people to report such threats to them, and promised protection.
Apart from the state police, 20 companies of central forces are deployed in Haryana -- 14 in Nuh, three in Palwal, two in Gurugram and one in Faridabad.
Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar said the government has sought four more companies from the Centre, and will also deploy a battalion of Haryana-based India Reserve Battalion.
He said 116 people have been arrested and 90 detained in the state so far. Forty-one cases were registered.
In Gurugram alone, 50 people have been arrested so far, the local police said. Among them is Dinesh Bharti, who heads Jai Bharat Mata Vahini and is booked for posting a video allegedly inciting communal violence.
The district police have identified 50 social media accounts carrying objectionable material.
Three of the godowns torched Tuesday night in Gurugram are located near Tikli village, and the other two in Palam Vihar and sector 70A. Some jhuggis in a slum near Nakhdola village were ransacked by a group of young men. Two meat shops were targeted in Badshahpur.
Mr Khattar and Deputy Chief Minister Dushyant Chautala appeared to disagree on what caused the violence.
On Tuesday, Chautala said the organisers of the procession did not give a proper estimate of the expected turnout, and this possibly led to the Nuh incident. At his Wednesday press conference, the CM countered this.
The local authorities had held meetings with "both sides" the day before the procession, and were assured that the event would take place in a peaceful manner, he said.
Prohibitory orders remain in force in Nuh, Gurugram and other affected districts.
