Kapil Mishra, a former minister of the Delhi government, said the protest was planned to support Goswami against his arrest by police in Maharashtra.
Almost ten days after the Delhi riot, the Delhi Police lodged an FIR no 59 on April 6, in which it alleged that the violence was not accidental but a planned conspiracy by some anti-CAA protestors.
When the peaceful, powerless, unorganised citizens show concern about organised propaganda of hate, it is their duty as Indians to do so.
The report stated that testimonies of affected people revealed that the violence was not spontaneous like a 'riot', it was 'planned, organised and targeted'.
Ten riot victims had filed a plea seeking lodging of FIRs against politicians for alleged hate speeches.
The SC has agreed to hear on March 4 the plea seeking lodging of FIRs against BJP leaders for their purported hate speeches.
Congress has demanded the resignation of Home Minister Amit Shah for "abdication of duty" during the communal violence in northeast Delhi.
The AAP leader also demanded strict action against BJP’s Kapil Mishra for giving inflammatory speeches.
Clearly, dissent, criticism of government, questioning politicians – all of which are fundamental to a democracy – have come to be treated as sedition by the police and a section of the magistracy in the prevalent political order. Such terrorising of critics and protesters endangers the very idea of democracy, writes Shastri Ramachandran.
Kapil Mishra's statement comes in the aftermath of the recovery of intelligence Bureau employee Ankit Sharma's body was recovered on Wednesday from the riot-hit areas.
The three BJP leaders are -- Kapil Mishra, Anurag Thakur and Parvesh Verma.
The high court directed the Delhi Police to take 'conscious decision' with respect to lodging of FIRs against hate speeches by three BJP leaders -- Kapil Mishra, Anurag Thakur and Parvesh Verma.
Voicing its disappointment over lack of Delhi Police action, the high court asked Special Commissioner of Police to convey its anguish to Delhi Police Commissioner.
On Wednesday, in another tweet, Mishra targetted his critics, saying, 'Those who didn't consider Burhan Wani and Afzal Guru terrorists are demanding his arrest.'
