The provocative speech, where he reiterated the call for use of weapons against Muslims, was delivered at a religious function in Delhi.
Haridwar hatemonger Yati Narsinghanand -- out on bail more than a month ago -- today delivered another hate speech in national capital Delhi. The provocative speech, where he reiterated the call for use of weapons against Muslims, was delivered at a religious function in Burari, northeast Delhi, on Sunday.
Arrested in January for organising an event in Haridwar that featured calls for genocide of Muslims, he was released on bail on February 18.
Circulated on social media, the clips from the Haridwar event drew sharp criticism from former military chiefs, retired judges, activists and even tennis legend Martina Navratilova.
But the first arrest in the case took place a month after the event, when the Supreme Court sought details from the Uttarakhand government on action taken.
