Fresh unrest was reported in the city on Wednesday as scuffles broke out between police and BJP supporters during a protest over the killing of a Hindu Bangladeshi youth. As police prevented the march from proceeding, protesters squatted on the road and attempted to break through barricades, leading to scuffles. On Monday, senior BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari along with other party leaders and supporters, had staged a demonstration near the Deputy High Commission on the same agenda. On Tuesday, a similar protest was organised outside the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi on Tuesday. The high security area witnessed a beefed-up police presence in the morning ahead of the protest announced by VHP.
