Delhi riots were ‘anti-Hindu massacre’: BJP after Tahir Hussain's conviction in IB staffer's murder case

Tahir Hussain, a prominent figure linked to the 2020 Delhi riots, has been convicted by a Karkardooma Court in Delhi for the murder of an Intelligence Bureau official, Ankit Sharma. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has used this conviction to highlight what they term as an "anti-Hindu massacre" during the riots, drawing attention to alleged communal tensions. This development underscores the political implications surrounding the riots, which have long been a contentious issue, affecting communal relations and the political landscape in Delhi. The conviction serves as a reminder of the ongoing legal proceedings and the broader narrative of violence and retribution in the region.
