A head constable was among the seven people killed while at least 50 others, including several paramilitary and Delhi Police personnel, were injured as violence over CAA escalated in northeast Delhi on Monday. Multiple vehicles were burnt and a man started firing on the streets as well. Stone-pelting was witnessed for the second consecutive day between pro and anti-CAA groups.
Lyricist Javed Akhtar took to his Twitter handle to condemn the violence, and in his condemnation he mentioned BJP leader Kapil Mishra who has come under tremendous flak for recently standing next to a police officer dressed in riot gear and giving the police three days to clear the Shaheen Bagh area, adding 'otherwise we will have to take to the streets'.
