Members suggest the flare-up in an area not known for communal unrest should be seen in conjunction with a series of earlier events

New Delhi: A fact-finding delegation of three Left parties has concluded that Saturday’s clashes at Jahangirpuri in northwest Delhi were the fallout of an agenda by some alleged Sangh parivar affiliates to use religious festivals to foment communal strife.

The delegation from the CPM, CPIML and the Forward Bloc interacted with 50 households, from both communities.

The members suggested that the flare-up in an area not known for communal clashes should be seen in conjunction with a series of earlier events. The team cited the ban announced by the south Delhi mayor — a BJP leader — on the sale of non-vegetarian food, the alleged ABVP bid to enforce vegetarian diet in JNU and the murder of a farmhouse caretaker by cow vigilantes in the capital.

The following are highlights from the Left delegation’s fact-finding report:

* Residents told the visiting team that a group of 150 to 200 people, carrying arms, blaring loud music and raising slogans, had been roaming around in a procession (shobha yatra for Hanuman Jayanti) since the afternoon in Jahangirpuri. Bystanders said they saw pistols and swords being brandished by the marchers — in line with the content of video clips aired by some TV channels.

The team was told that the procession had been organised not by people from the neighbourhood but by the Bajrang Dal, with most of the participants being from outside the area. On Sunday, several Hindu and Muslim residents too had told The Telegraph that most of the participants were “outsiders”.

The delegation was informed that the procession had been accompanied by two police jeeps — one at the front and the other at the rear. However, each jeep had only two personnel. The fact-finding report asked why the police did not make adequate arrangements and allowed arms to be carried in the procession.
