Hindu Raksha Dal members held a rally to the Jama Masjid to recite the Hanuman Chalisa, demanding a ban on loudspeakers at the mosque. They chanted slogans such as “Ayodhya was just a glimpse, Kashi and Mathura are next” and “One must chant ‘Jai Shri Ram’ to live in Hindustan.” The police stopped them from reaching the mosque.
