The people expressed their anger and strong resentment over the killing of the Muslims and burning of their properties worth crores of rupees in Delhi by organising demonstrations and burning the effigies of BJP and RSS government at 47places in 15 districts of Punjab and 4 places in the Sirsa district of Haryana on a call given by 14 mass and democratic organizations. In a press statement Joginder Singh Ugrahan, Rajwinder Singh and Buta Singh Burj Gill said that besides Bathinda effigies of BJP government were burnt at 47 villages, towns and district headquarters of Barnala, Mansa, Sangrur, Faridkot, Muktsar, Moga, Ludhiana, Tarn Taran, Jalandhar, Patiala, Fazilka, Ferozepur, Amritsar and Gurdaspur. In the demonstrations held at these places the speakers squarely blamed BJP and RSS for instigating communal violence against the Muslim community under a well thought-out conspiracy to supress the peaceful and ever-expanding protests against the unjust CAA, NPR and NRC. The speakers categorically accused the central government and the entire administration and police machinery for this violence against the Muslim community as it has refused to arrest BJP leaders like Kapil Mishra who delivered provocative and communal speeches which resulted in the murder of over a dozen persons including few hindus injuries to hundreds and burning of properties worth crores of rupees. The speakers further accused the Delhi Police of colluding with the mobs in spreading this violence, as they are seen on various social media forums beating the Muslim youth with lathis and teasing them for their slogans for freedom from CAA and NRC. In these demonstrations the speakers were of the firm view that the BJP government conspired to resort to violence as it sensed that it's ploy to present Shaheen Bagh protest as anti-national and resulting in problems for the people would not succeed in having it lifted on the orders of Supreme Court. The leaders further said that clear signs were visible of the interlocutors appointed by Supreme Court exposing the lies about the Shaheen Bagh protests, and consequently the BJP and RSS have chosen the path of communal violence by throwing to the winds all rules and regulations. They blamed the Modi Sarkar of again creating the conditions of 1947 and communally dividing people by linking the fundamental right of citizenship to religion.
They demanded that Kapil Mishra and other BJP leaders responsible for instigating violence be arrested immediately, police officials who collaborated with these culprits be proceeded against under the provisions of the relevant laws, the lives and properties of the Muslim community be protected and people's right to protest against the unjust and repressive policies of the government be guaranteed. They also reiterated their resolve to continue their struggle against the communal fascist BJP government, and announced a state wide rally on March 8 at Malerkotla on the occasion of International Women's Day. Those who addressed today's demonstrations included Sukhdev Singh Kokri, Lakhwinder Singh, Jagmohan Singh,Harinder Kaur Bindu , Zora Singh Nasrali, Ashwini Ghuda, Kavilpreet Pannu, Surinder Singh, Rachhpal Singh, Chhinderpal Singh, Hoshiar Singh, Lachhman Singh Sewewala, Shingara Singh Mann, Manjeet Singh Dhaner, Harjinder Singh and Harsa Singh.
