  • Journalists were also attacked and many were forced to delete pictures and videos from their phones. At least four journalists were injured after being attacked.
  • Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code barring the meeting of more than four people continued to be in place in parts of the North East district. Five metro stations that were shut on Monday remained closed on Tuesday. Trains on the Pink Line are terminating at Welcome station.
  • Shahrukh, who opened fire at police during the clashes on Monday, has reportedly been arrested.
  • Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, his deputy Manish Sisodia and Health Minister Satyendar Jain visited the GTB Hospital to meet those injured in the violence. Earlier in the day, Kejriwal held a meeting with MLAs of the affected areas and then met Union Home Minister Amit Shah. He said he had a “positive meeting” with Shah. He added that the police had been outnumbered and were unable to take action since they did not have the orders to do so. He as well as Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal urged people to be peaceful.
  • Many witnesses pointed to a lack of Delhi Police presence in the areas affected by violence, even as Rapid Action Force and Central Reserve Police Force personnel have been deployed. Flag marches were conducted in some localities.
