Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders, including national president Rajnath Singh, were detained by Delhi Police at the Jantar Mantar in New Delhi today during the protest against Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde over his 'saffron terror' remark. Scores of BJP party workers and supporters have gathered at the Jantar Mantar to vent their ire against the Home Minister. BJP spokesperson Prakash Javadekar earlier in the day said that Shinde's remarks have created outrage over the country. Javadekar further accused the ruling Congress Party of playing vote bank politics, and demanded an apology from the Home Minister. The decision to carry out a protest march against Shinde, who had made the controversial remarks at a Congress conclave in Jaipur last month, was taken at a BJP Parliamentary Executive Committee meeting yesterday.
