Violence in Delhi shows politics at boiling point

Deccan Chronicle  

It is not yet summer, but the political situation in Delhi has been moving towards boiling point as the Narendra Modi government had decided to sit out the two-month-long protest of Muslim women at Shaheen Bagh over the controversial Citizenship Act in one part of Delhi. There are enough reasons to argue that Delhi BJP member Kapil Mishra, who was formerly with the AAP, had issued an ultimatum that the Delhi police must free up the roads blocked by the anti-CAA protesters and that they — supposedly those affected by the protests — would hold their peace until US President Donald Trump’s visit ends on Tuesday, and if the police fails to disperse the protesters, they will take to the streets and not heed the police. The police in Delhi was apparently restrained due to the American President’s presence in the national capital, and they would not resort to using force to deal with protesters. The Union home ministry and other ardent pro-CAA supporters — mostly Hindutva zealots — suspect that the anti-CAA protests are being managed by someone like the People’s Front of India of Uttar Pradesh.
