Screenshot from WhatsApp video . As the atmosphere in Delhi remains vitiated after a 17-year-old boy shot at protesters outside the Jamia Millia Islamia University, injuring a student, a video circulating on WhatsApp calls for a mob to gather to “clear out” the peaceful Shaheen Bagh protests. Amit Shah, who leads the home ministry to which the Delhi Police reports, called for voters to press the EVM button with such anger that “Shaheen Bagh feels the current”. BJP MP Parvesh Verma demonised the protesters at Shaheen Bagh by saying “they will come into your homes and rape your sisters”. One of the Facebook statuses posted by the gunman before he shot at the protesters says “Shaheen Bagh... khel khatam” which translates to “Shaheen Bagh... game over”.
