  • Hussain—who recently returned from Delhi's Sir Ganga Ram Hospital after treatment—told TOI, "In the aftermath of the Babri Masjid demolition in 1992, the district administration had turned to us for help, as they did before December 20 violence this year."

    Reportedly, Firozabad District Magistrate Chandra Vijay Singh and Superintendent of Police Sachindra Patel visited him two weeks ago, asking him to help spread peace.

  • Separately, Firozabad City Magistrate Kunwar Pankaj Singh told News18, "The day there was violence during the protests, there was pressure on the administration to ensure peace in the district. We received reports from several police stations and action was taken."

    Singh added, "We have been informed that many people were wrongly named, were elderly and bed-ridden. For sure no action will be taken against them."

  • On December 20, violent protests against CAA swept Uttar Pradesh, killing 19 people across the state.

    Following the violence, UP Chief Minister vowed to take "revenge" against those responsible, even as some reports highlighted instances of excessive police force.

    Thereafter, Firozabad Police sent notices to at least 200 people asking them to prove that they are not potential threats to peace.
