Jalandhar, Oct. 4 -- Tension prevailed between the two communities in Jalandhar on Friday evening over Bareilly violence. The Jalandhar police beefed up the security after BJP leaders blocked the BMC Chowk, alleging the members of the other community of assaulting one of their party workers. The Muslim community under the banner of the Muslim Sangathan Punjab held a protest march and handed over a memorandum to the Jalandhar commissionerate police against the Uttar Pradesh government over the registration of FIRs against members of the community over the Bareilly row. The UP city witnessed violence last week after the cancellation of a demonstration over the 'I Love Muhammad' poster row. Nayeem Khan, president of the organisation, alleged that while they were on their way to the police commissioner's office, a youth rammed his two-wheeler into the protesters and started raising pro-Hindu slogans and anti-Muslim remarks following which they had heated arguments with him. "The issue was resolved on the spot but later the BJP leaders flared up the entire incident and blocked the BMC chowk," Khan alleged. Former MLA and BJP leader Sheetal Angural said, "Everyone has the right to hold a protest in a democratic set up but some anti-social elements joined the protesters in Jalandhar and assaulted a member of the Hindu community, who was just passing by. We have been demanding registration of FIRs against those involved in the entire incident." Commissioner of police Dhanpreeet Kaur Randhawa said, "Action will be taken according to the course of law and no one will be allowed to disrupt law and order in the city." htc...
