In a U-turn, the Delhi Police has informed the Supreme Court that after analysing videos and links on social media on hate speech at a 'Dharam Sansad' here, it has registered an FIR for promoting enmity between groups. The Delhi Police had earlier told the top court that "no specific words against any community were uttered" at the event organised here by the Hindu Yuva Vahini on December 19 last year.

The fresh affidavit of the Delhi Police said, 'It is submitted that all the links given in the complaint and other material available in public domain were analysed. One video containing audio and video recording of the above said programme was found uploaded on YouTube channel. After further minute verification of the materials, FIR has been registered on May 4 at police station Okhla Industrial Area, South East (Delhi) District for the offences of section 153A, 295A, 298 and 34 of Indian Penal Code."
