Massive Protests In Delhi, UP's Saharanpur Over Remarks Against Prophet

The protests in Delhi erupted outside the Jama Masjid, one of the largest mosques in India, after the Friday prayers.

Huge protests flared in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur on Friday over remarks by suspended BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma and her former colleague Naveen Kumar Jindal who are yet to be arrested weeks after triggering a massive controversy with their remarks about Prophet Muhammad.

The protests in Delhi erupted outside the Jama Masjid, one of the largest mosques in India, after the Friday prayers.

The police in Delhi on Thursday had said they have filed a complaint against a Ms Sharma, Mr Jindal and others for "inciting people on divisive lines" on social media.

The move came after many Muslim-majority countries condemned India over the comments by the spokespersons for the country's ruling party.
