Amid counting of votes in the high-stakes Delhi Assembly elections, capital's Shaheen Bagh on Tuesday witnessed silent anti-CAA protests, the epicentre of demonstrations for nearly two months.

The women protesters have been staging silent protest since the morning, and no person was seen delivering any speech during the demonstration.

Sources said that holding a silent protest amid election results also indicates that it might send a wrong message to the people and fuel violence in Jamia.
