Internet suspended, security heightened in UP's Sambhal: What led to violent clashes?

Violent clashes erupted in Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh, during a court-ordered survey of the Jama Masjid, resulting in three fatalities and numerous injuries. The survey, prompted by claims of the mosque's prior existence as a temple, ignited protests and stone-pelting, leading to police retaliation with tear gas. Authorities implemented prohibitory orders, internet suspension, and material restrictions to quell the unrest.
