Hawzah News Agency (Gurugram Khattar, India) - Manohar Lal Khattar said on Sunday that there had been an increase in instances of prayers being offered in the open. 

However, on the issue of prayers disruption in Gurugram, Khattar said that it is state's duty to maintain law and order.

Trouble seems to be mounting up for Manohar Lal Khattar-led BJP government in Haryana after another incident related to disruption of Friday prayers was reported in Gurugram. 

Right-wing organizations disrupted prayers congregations at several open spaces in Gurugram on 4 May and demanded the worshipers leave the area. 

The outfits claimed that they will continue to 'disrupt' prayers congregations in the open if the authorities do not take action against the 'unauthorized' prayer meets. 

Under the aegis of Sanyukt Hindu Sangharsh Samiti, members of theVishwa Hindu Parishad, Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Kranti Dal, Swadeshi Jagran Manch, Shiv Sena, Bajrang Dal, Hindu Jagran Manch, Bharat Bachao Abhiyan and Gurugram Sanskritik Gaurav Samiti arrived at several spots to disrupt the Friday prayers.

However, police were present at the prayers sites and prevented any violence from taking place. 

Right-wing organizations have been trying to stop Friday prayers in Gurgaon over the last two weeks, alleging that some people were trying to grab land in a bid to merge it with a mosque. 

There are 22 mosques in Gurugram and about 106 open spaces where prayers are offered.
