CCTV footage reveals rioters armed with pistols and women pelting stones from rooftops, indicating an organized plan. Uttar Pradesh police identified 78 rioters and the Samajwadi Party conveniently questioned the judiciary's actions.

AIMPLB's Demand

• 00:17:11 The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) demands the Supreme Court prevent lower courts from hearing petitions regarding Hindu religious sites, claiming that accepting them is unfortunate and leads to an explosive situation. The AIMPLB's stance is seen as arrogant coercion and a veiled threat to the judiciary.

Places of Worship Act

• 00:19:51 The Places of Worship Act, passed in 1991 by the Congress, is viewed as hypocritical and discriminatory, freezing religious sites' character as of 1947, ignoring centuries of destruction of Hindu, Sikh, Jain, and Buddhist sites by Muslim rulers. The Act also exempts only the Ram Janmabhoomi, conveniently overlooking other desecrated sites, leading to questions about its secularism and equality.

Ajmer Sharif Dargah

• 00:23:23 The Ajmer Sharif Dargah is the subject of a petition claiming it was built on a Shiva temple, accepted by the Rajasthan court.

Parliament Disruption

• 00:55:09 The opposition's disruption tactics in the Parliament have resulted in the house being adjourned frequently during the first 3 days of the winter session.

Adani Issue Debate

• 01:00:02 The opposition's attempt to debate the Adani Group's alleged involvement in bribery and financial impropriety was rejected by the Rajya Sabha chairman, leading to the disruption of parliament proceedings.

Delhi's Law & Order
