During the communal violence that broke out in North-East Delhi in February, at least 14 mosques and a Sufi shrine were burnt down. Most of the attacks occurred in broad daylight, carried out by mobs allegedly chanting 'Jai Shri Ram'.

Now, the work of repairing most of these mosques is complete and namaz is being read as before.
