He assured the people that peace will “Insha Allah” prevail in the area. The NSA went inside narrow alleys in Seelampur and Maujpur area and appealed to people to maintain communal harmony and let bygone be bygone. Some people were also seen complaining to the NSA about the police inaction and the sense of fear that they faced over the last three days.
A burqa-clad college girl told Doval: “Sir, we have been living in constant fear. I have not been able to go to college. Our brothers are trying to protect us.”
The NSA assured the girl that safety and security of everyone would be ensured and there was no need to fear.
