An anti-Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) protester during a violent protest in Delhi’s Jaffarabad area opened fire in an attempt to intimidate the cops countering the mob. A video of the same was shared by journalist Saurabh Trivedi.
While the violent mob was busy pelting stones, one protester decided to take the violence to the next level by wielding a gun and began firing rounds close to the head of a police constable in a bid to intimidate the cops.
To the credit of Delhi police head constable Neeraj Dhaiya, he unflinchingly faced the shooter. It may be recalled that during a similar violent anti-CAA protest in Delhi’s Seelampur, a bomb had exploded in a protester’s hand before he could throw it.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
