Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Anurag Dhanda has criticised the Delhi Police and the Central government, alleging that restrictions on people travelling to Gurdwara Sahib have revived memories of the tragic events of 1984.
Anurag Dhanda Criticises Delhi Police and Centre Over Alleged Restrictions
In a post on social media, Dhanda claimed that people were saying the actions of what he described as “Modi’s police” had brought back painful memories of 1984. He further alleged that preventing people from visiting Gurdwara Sahib was unacceptable and criticised the Delhi Police and the Union Home Minister over the issue.
AAP leader also called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi
The AAP leader also called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, urging him to respond to the concerns raised over the alleged restrictions. His remarks reflect the AAP’s broader criticism of the Centre’s handling of law and order and issues concerning religious gatherings.
Dhanda’s comments come at a time when political parties are sharply divided over security measures and administrative decisions in the national capital. Statements from opposition leaders have intensified the political debate, with parties accusing each other of using sensitive issues for political messaging.
The social media post did not specify the exact circumstances under which devotees were allegedly prevented from visiting Gurdwara Sahib, nor did it provide details of any official order or restrictions. The Delhi Police and the Union government had not responded to the specific allegations in the post at the time of writing.
The issue has drawn attention because access to places of worship is often a politically and socially sensitive matter. Any restrictions imposed for security or administrative reasons frequently become the subject of public and political scrutiny, with opposition parties seeking explanations from the authorities.
