About a hundred Muslim youths organised into groups took to streets on Friday to protest the recent controversial statements made by leaders belonging to the Bharatiya Janata Party, in Hyderabad.
Tension prevailed, and in isolated incidents, police even resorted to mild lathicharge, to disperse protesters.
The protesters carrying placards demanded the arrest of now-suspended leaders of the BJP – Nupur Sharma and Naveen Jindal, who allegedly made derogatory statements against Prophet Muhammed.
