Former Indian Police Service (IPS) officers from Gujarat DG Vanzara and Narendra Amin were felicitated by an organisation named “Jaher Nagrik Sanman Samiti” in Ahmedabad on Sunday (19 May), reports Times of India.
According to the report, the ex-IPS officers, both of whom were recently discharged by the court in the Ishrat Jahan encounter case, were accompanied by a procession from CTM Crossroads to Veer Mangal Pandey hall in Nikol where they were felicitated by the members of the organization at a programme.
The procession reportedly started at 10am on Sunday (19 May) with around 1,000 people in attendance. Throughout the processions slogans like ‘Gujarat ka Kesri’ (Lion) were used to laud the former police officers.
Vanzara, speaking briefly on the occasion, said that the rally was just an excuse to spread awareness about nationalism.
As per the report, Vanzara, since getting out on bail, has been regularly participating in rallies and felicitation programmes.
