Prime Time With Ravish Kumar - August 10, 2021: BJP member Ashwini Upadhyay and five others have been arrested over violent anti-Muslim slogans raised at a protest held at Delhi's Jantar Mantar on Sunday. Ashwini Upadhyay, believed to be one of the organisers of the protest, was questioned till late last night along with other accused. The arrests followed outrage over videos that showed a group shouting egregious slogans threatening Muslims at Jantar Mantar, a protest site in the heart of Delhi. In clips on social media, "Ram, Ram" chants were raised along with threats to kill Muslims. "Hindustan mein rehna hoga jai shri ram kehna hoga (To stay in India, must say Jai Shri Ram)," the group shouted barely a km from parliament and top government offices. Questions were raised on the police not arresting those behind the event including Ashwini Upadhaya - who is a member of the Delhi BJP executive - and those visible in the videos. The police finally acted only late on Monday evening and rounded up suspects for questioning. (Audio in Hindi)
