Modi asks Delhi police chief to probe church attacks
Following the attack on a convent school in Delhi on Friday, Prime Minister Modi has asked Delhi Police Commissioner B.S. Bassi to investigate recent incidents of vandalism targeting Christian institutions.
After meeting the Prime Minister, the Police Commissioner said Mr. Modi had given strict instructions to track down culprits in convent school vandalism.
He added that of six incidents at Christian institutions, including desecration at churches, four had been worked out and there were no connections between them.
The Holy Child Auxilium School was allegedly vandalised on Thursday night, after which the institution has been shut down on Friday. Delhi Chief Minister-designate Arvind Kejriwal on Friday condemned the attack on the Christian school in south Delhi’s Vasant Vihar area. “I strongly condemn the attack on Holy Child Auxilium School. These kind of acts will not be tolerated," Mr. Kejriwal said.
