The protesters assembled near Jaisalmer House and tried to move towards the Congress headquarters on Akbar Road

National President of the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha Tejasvi Surya was also seen protesting with other BJP workers

Meanwhile, in Mumbai, BJP leaders including party legislator Prasad Lad on Tuesday held a 'sit-in protest' on the steps of Vidhan Bhavan on Tuesday to oppose the misbehavior of Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Ambadas Danve

In his first speech as the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Gandhi launched a no-holds-barred attack on the BJP, accusing it of practicing violence and spreading hate, drawing massive protests from the treasury benches, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi. 

Gandhi triggered a row when he said those who call themselves Hindus are engaged in "violence and hate" round the clock.

His remarks drew massive protests from the members of the treasury benches, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi asserting that calling the entire Hindu society violent is a serious matter.
