“The way the Supreme Court has taken a stand that it will not allow creating a situation like 1984. Supreme Court has said that lives could have been saved. It indicates that this riot was preplanned and police was having some kind of orders not to act and definitely the ruling party people are behind this kind of riot which is very dangerous and the government has failed to maintain peace in Delhi. We demand Amit Shah to resign, he doesn’t have a moral right to stay in the office of Home Ministry,” the NCP leader said.
