Video03/Mar/2021
One year ago, on February 25, a mob made its way to Ashok Nagar, Galli (lane) Number 5, in the early afternoon, shouting the slogan, âJai Shri Ramâ.
The Muslim families in the area locked their doors.
The mob entered a mosque and, still shouting slogans, began to destroy the interiors, tearing up copies of the holy book, shattering glass windows, breaking the furniture.
After the insides of the mosque were destroyed, gas cylinders were tossed inside and the premises set ablaze. In the explosion that followed, a major part of the mosque was laid waste, with gaping holes in the sides of the building where the walls fell.

BJP Lacks Courage To Talk About Implementing CAA In Assam: Priyanka Gandhi Vadra

Taking a dig at Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday, Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said that BJP leaders talk about implementing the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) in various parts of the country, but do not have the courage to mention it in Assam.
Assam had witnessed massive protests against the implementation of CAA in 2019 and five people had lost their lives to the violence that broke out.
The grand alliance of the Congress and six other parties will form the government in Assam after the election as people are fed up with the false promises made by the BJP, she said.
