A Delhi neighborhood divided by a highway and now hatred

NEW DELHI - The Hindu area of Bhajanpura and Muslim quarter of Chand Bagh face each other across a wide thoroughfare running through the northeastern part of India’s capital, New Delhi.

Some residents are trying to understand how a peaceful part of the Indian capital became a battleground virtually overnight. “I have never had a problem, never had a complaint,” the 52-year-old told Reuters, referring to her mostly Muslim neighbors across the way. “I still can’t understand what happened.”

Delhi police did not respond to requests for comment for this story. On Tuesday evening, the force issued a statement saying it was doing its utmost to control the violence and urged people to maintain the peace.Like hundreds of thousands of Muslims across the country, Bano had spent weeks protesting against a new citizenship law that gives non-Muslims from three neighboring countries a fast-track to Indian citizenship.

“If this is what the minority can do, wait till you see what the majority can do when it picks up arms,” Ajay Choudhary, a yoga instructor, loudly declared to applause and cheers, as he pointed to burned buildings.“We had to do something to defend ourselves. They were lusting for blood,” said Ashish, a 21-year-old Hindu student who only gave his first name.Faith in the ability of politicians and police to contain the unrest is wearing thin among local residents.

India has their own home grown 'ISS' called 'RSS'. Intl. media turning blind eye to the issue. I wonder why 🤔🤔🤔

Hindu is the dominant religion in India, we all know it is the other way around in India: Hindu's massacring muslims.

🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

I’ll give you a hint. One religion kills non believers, and is the controlling religion/ideology in dozens of country’s.

These mobs, most likely supported by the RSS wing of BJP, are playing a very dangerous game. Violence against Muslims is only going to encourage the 1% extremists among them to retaliate. 99% of Hindus and Muslims do not want this.

The politicians' ethos has always been 'Divide & Conquer'... Very Machiavellian... 😔

We don't need the Britisher's to divide us. There are enough demagogue's amongst us.

Due to the fascist Modi

Could be very much possible because atleast some can't go beyond religion in their election speeches and if everyone is educated,or cities are developed then they'll be out of their Dhanda/Business. As I said somewhere before, looks like a certain flower party is creating issues

An example of a huge abysmal failure of humankind.

New Delhi sees deadliest riots in decadesFrom beating Muslims to burning a mosque, here is a look at how rioters ran unfettered in India's capital New Delhi as security personnel appeared as hapless or complicit bystanders. Please correct ur statement. These are well planned pogroms to carry out a genocide of Muslims by the modi government. These are not in any sense a riot. Mr Doland Trrump and Mr expert in riot ( Narendra Modi) have put oil in the fire. May Allah subhanahu wa ta'alla guide them. If they are not guidable may Allah subhanahu wa ta'alla destroy in a way that humanity has never seen .
