‘I’m Glad I Did What I Did’: BJP’s Kapil Mishra Recounts 2020 ‘Ultimatum’ To Delhi Police

In 2020, before the deadly riots in Northeast Delhi, BJP’s Karawal Nagar candidate Kapil Mishra gave an ultimatum to the police to remove anti-CAA protesters. The riots resulted in 53 deaths and over 200 injuries, with shops and houses being destroyed. Another candidate accused of inciting violence, Tahir Hussain, is running from Mustafabad. Mishra defends his actions, stating he was demanding open roads for the sake of residents. He believes the upcoming elections will bring a change in Delhi’s governance. The issue of communal violence still lingers in the area, with residents wary of candidates like Hussain.
