Bhupender Yadav asks for "another independent probe" into anti-CAA violence

NEW DELHI: BJP General Secretary Bhupender Yadav has demanded an independent inquiry into the anti-CAA protests, the ensuing violence in the country and the riots that erupted in Delhi this year.

Yadav said that the alleged foreign funding angle should also be brought under the purview of this new probe. He was speaking at a virtual interaction on the Delhi riots this year. "This country should be proud of the fact that India is giving citizenship to the religiously persecuted which is part of the human rights declaration. But this truth was projected as anti-constitutional and a poisonous atmosphere was sought to be created. I know that we all became a part of this tragedy. Hence I agree with this book when it seeks another independent probe. Foreign fundings should also be taken into consideration. Intelligence should be gathered about the network. One should be concerned about those few people who are trying to radicalise a religion," said Yadav, in a virtual interaction from Patna, during what author Monica Arora claimed was the launch of the book 'Delhi Riots 2020 - the untold story'. However, the publisher Bloomsbury India decided to withdraw the book saying the event was held "without our knowledge by the authors". (IANS)
