New Delhi:
Thirteen people have been killed and more than 150 - including a child - injured as armed mobs rampaged through parts of northeast Delhi for a third consecutive day today, looting and burning buildings and vehicles as the government hosts US President Donald Trump and his family only 15 kilometres away.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah, whose department said on Monday evening that the situation is under control, chaired a meeting with Delhi Police officials late this evening – his third in 24 hours – as the government tries to combat the violence and restore law and order in affected areas.
Mr Shah, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Delhi Police have all issued appeals for peace.
