India: Indian police arrest 14 after communal clashes in New Delhi

NEW DELHI, 18 April 2022, (TON): Police said in a tweet “Indian police arrested 14 people in connection with violent clashes between Hindus and Muslims during a Hindu religious procession in New Delhi.”

Six police officers and several others were injured during scuffles that marred the procession at a festival in Jahangirpuri, a suburban section of New Delhi.

The police said “remaining rioters are being identified for strict legal action.”

There were no reported deaths from the incident.

In recent weeks, religious clashes have broken out between the majority Hindu and minority Muslim communities during religious processions in several parts of the country.

The rule of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party has emboldened hardline Hindu religious groups in recent years to take up causes that they say defend their faith, although his party has denied any rise in communal tensions during Modi's reign.
