Asthana rues Delhi riots

Published on: 

The Delhi Police Commissioner, Rakesh Asthana, on Wednesday visited northeast Delhi on Wednesday for the first time after assuming charge as police chief to attend a programme “Ummeed: A step together, towards a better tomorrow” on the theme of communal harmony. The programme was organised by the northeast district police at Shyamlal college. Asthana said that he was very sad when he heard about the riots which took place in the national Capital last year. “I was sad because this kind of problem arose in Delhi where people have almost forgotten riots. No community or religion is bad. People who follow religion are not bad. But in every community, there are some people because of them the environment gets spoiled,” said Asthana.
