New Delhi: Protests are being held at Delhi’s Jama Masjid demanding suspended BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma’s arrest for her remarks against Prophet Mohammad, NDTV reported.
Reports of violence after the Friday prayers have also come in from UP’s Saharanpur.
Delhi Police have already registered FIRs against former BJP functionaries Nupur Sharma and Naveen Kumar Jindal, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, controversial priest Yati Narsinghanand and others for allegedly posting and sharing messages on social media against the maintenance of public tranquility and inciting people on divisive lines.
On Thursday, demonstrators put up road blockades in several places of West Bengal’s Howrah district. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee urged them to call off their stir in the state and go to New Delhi to protest.
