Senior Congress leader Salman Khurshid has been seen chanting Azadi slogan along with a toddler during an anti-CAA event, Times Now has reported.
As per the report, in a video which has gone viral on social media, Khurshid can be seen encouraging a toddler to chant slogans like, Hum Cheen Ke Lenge Azadi, Tum Kuch Bhi Kar Lo Azadi, Hum Kya Chahte Azadi.
While the date of the protest is not known, it is said to be connected with the anti-CAA protests at Delhi’s Jamia. Here is a copy of the reported video shared by a journalist.
It may be recalled that various anti-CAA protesters have seen the participation of various small children who many a times have been brought by their parents to the protest venue.
This also resulted in a tragedy when a four-month-old infant died due to exposure to harsh cold during the Shaheen Bagh protests. His mother though remained unrepentant over the incident and vowed to return back to the protest venue.
Now a Supreme Court bench led by CJI Bobade has taken suo-moto-cognizence of the baby’s death and said that “how could an infant go to protest at Shaheen Bagh, and also how could mothers support this”.
