Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) members today held a protest outside Delhi's Rouse Avenue Court against Congress leader Jagdish Tytler over a 1984 anti-Sikh riots case.
A minor tussle also erupted between members of the DSGMC and the Delhi Police outside the Rouse Avenue Court, leading to the police closing the entry gate of the courtroom due to security reasons.
Mr Tytler had arrived at the Rouse Avenue Court in connection with a case related to the anti-Sikh riots after being issued a summons to appear today.
During the hearing, the court asked Mr Tytler to furnish the bail bond as per the condition imposed by the sessions court. Subsequently, he will have to furnish a bail bond of Rs 1 lakh as directed by the sessions court.
Mr Tytler was granted anticipatory bail by the sessions court on Friday in a case related to the 1984 anti-Sikh riots involving arson in a gurdwara in North Delhi.
Stating that it has received the bail order granted by the sessions court, the Rouse Avenue court directed to supply a chargesheet to Mr Tytler, which has been done.
The Central Bureau of Investigation had, on May 20, filed a chargesheet against Mr Tytler in a case related to anti-Sikh riots in 1984 following the assassination of then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, on October 31, 1984. Mr Tytler, then Member of Parliament, has been named as an accused in the chargesheet.
During the CBI investigation, evidence came on record that on November 1, 1984, the said accused allegedly instigated, incited and provoked the mob assembled at Gurudwara Pul Bangash in Azad Market, Delhi, which resulted in the burning of Gurudwara Pul Bangash and killing of three Sikh persons by the mob, apart from burning and looting of shops.

Delhi's much-awaited artificial rain experiment, initially postponed in July continues to be on hold, with no green light yet for the trial that was expected to take place after Diwali.
In a time when post-Diwali smog still clouds much of the country, these destinations offer hope - and a reminder that clear skies and fresh air are not luxuries but the new markers of good living.
Both CPCB and IQAir follow different methods of calculating air quality index, resulting in different numbers.
Poor air quality is linked to a range of health issues, including respiratory problems, cardiovascular diseases, and aggravated asthma.
The impact of high air pollution on the eyes is significant. Exposure to pollutants like particulate matter (PM2.5), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and sulfur dioxide (SO2) can lead to a range of eye problems.

Friday December 20, 2024While some may argue that people in Delhi are now more aware of air pollution than they were a decade back, my rebuttal would be that awareness does not mean that people are concerned.

Friday November 08, 2024हमारी हवा जहरीली हो रही है. गुरुवार की शाम को जब मैं इस मुद्दे पर लिखने बैठी तो AQI लगातार 400 पार जाकर दम घोंट रहा था. बहुत लोगों को यह मामला बोरिंग लगे, लेकिन जब आप अपने साथ काम करने वालों को खांसते-हांफते देखते-सुनते हैं, तो चिंता होने लगती है. सुबह उठते ही दरवाजे खिड़कियां खोलने के लिए डॉक्टर मना कर रहे हैं. बड़े बुजुर्गों के लिए तो मॉर्निंग वॉक बाहर की दुनिया से सीधे संपर्क का ज़रिया है, लेकिन डॉक्टर इसकी भी मनाही कर रहे हैं.
