Nuh: India's most backward district bordering Gurugram turned into cybercrime hotspot

In April 2018, NITI Aayog identified Nuh in Haryana’s Mewat belt as India’s most backward district. The remote city in the foothills of the Aravallis, however, remains in the news for all the wrong reasons, from the Mewati gangs and cybercrimes to alarmingly low social indicators. The city is back in the news after communal violence broke out during a Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) rally on Monday, leading to at least five deaths, including three police officers.
