The people of the minority community, soon after the Friday prayers, had gathered on the stairs just outside the Jama Masjid, holding placards against the former BJP spokespersons Nupur Sharma and Naveen Jindal.
The agitators were demanding immediate arrest of the suspended BJP leaders.

"As the protest was carried out without any prior permission from the Delhi Police, a legal action will be initiated," the official said.

Jama Masjid's Shahi Imam Ahmed Bukhari said no call was given for the protest.

"I don't know who the protesters are," Bukhari claimed.

India faced a major pushback on the Prophet row after the Mulsim countries protested on the issue, envoys were summoned and Qatar, Kuwait, UAE and Iran issued statements.

The government has, however, said that the statements does not reflect its view but of the fringe elements.
