Posters and slogans supporting Madvi Hidma - a top Maoist leader who was killed in an encounter in Andhra Pradesh earlier this month - surfaced at Sunday's violent protest at Delhi's India Gate against the worsening air pollution in the national capital. A group of protesters raised slogans such as "Madvi Hidma Amar Rahe" (Long Live Madvi Hidma).
Minutes before the demonstration turned violent, a man can be seen holding a poster that read: "From Birsa Munda to Madvi Hidma, the struggle of our forests and environment will go on".
