There is a continuous phase of the fury of minority communities in India against French President Emmanuel Macron. Despite Prime Minister Narendra Modi's announcement to support France against terrorism, demonstrations against Macros were held at many places on Friday. Protests were staged in Mumbai by sticking posters of the French President on the streets so that vehicles could pass over them. These were later removed by the police.
2000 people sued for a rally in Bhopal
On the other hand, minority communities in Ludhiana and Bathinda in Punjab also demonstrated against the Macros. A case has been registered against 2000 Congress MLAs and 2000 people for organizing a protest rally in Bhopal on Thursday by breaking the ban related to the epidemic. Chief Minister Shivraj Chauhan has clarified that further action will be taken against those who do so.
The posters of the French President in Mumbai were found sticking on the busy Mohammed Ali Road under the JJ flyover in the Bhendi Bazar area on Thursday evening. Its video also went viral on social media. Mumbai Police spokesman S. Chaitanya confirmed this on Friday. He said that the police immediately reached the spot and removed the posters from the streets. He said that no case has been registered so far.
On the other hand, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan showed a strong stand on the protest rally held at Iqbal Maidan in Bhopal on Thursday. He tweeted, Madhya Pradesh is an island of peace. We will deal strictly with those who disturb its peace. Action is being taken in this case by registering a case under 188 IPC (violation of orders of government officials). No culprit will be spared. Whatever it may be.
The Bhopal Police has registered a case against nearly 2000 people including Congress MLA Arif Masood and several Muslim religious leaders in this case. All of them have been accused of violating the restrictions imposed under Kovid-19. Talaiya police station in-charge DP Singh said that a case under Section 188 of the IPC was registered against all of them on Thursday evening.
Protest held against Macros in Punjab
The Majlis Ahrar Islam organization on Friday fueled the effigy of the President of France at Field Ganj Chowk outside Jama Masjid in Ludhiana, Punjab. On the other hand, in Bathinda too, the Muslim community held a protest against the President of France near Haji Ratna Dargah with a black flag. On this occasion, religious leaders appealed to boycott French products.
BJP targeted the Maharashtra government
The BJP targeted the Maharashtra government for pasting the posters of the French President on the Mumbai street. BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra wrote in the tweet, Maharashtra government, what is happening in your rule? India stands with France today. The PM of India has pledged to fight jointly with France against the terrorism that is happening in France.
Then why insult the French head of state on the streets of Mumbai? However, after Patra's tweet, a lot of people trolled him in Madhya Pradesh on Thursday for the huge crowd that had gathered at the protest rally on the same issue. The trollers questioned Patra that which party has a government in Madhya Pradesh?
