Political strategist and politician Prashant Kishor, on February 26, called for the sacking of Delhi Police Commissioner Amulya Patnaik over the clashes taking place in the National Capital.
Responding to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s tweet where he stated that the concerned authorities are working to restore peace and normalcy in Delhi, Kishor demanded that Patnaik be removed from the post over “negligence" in containing the clashes that have been taking place northeast Delhi.
He tweeted:
Sir, at the very least please #SackCPDelhi for his incompetence and criminal negligence. #delhivoilence https://t.co/zPi0jjEpso— Prashant Kishor (@PrashantKishor) February 26, 2020

Peace and harmony are central to our ethos. I appeal to my sisters and brothers of Delhi to maintain peace and brotherhood at all times. It is important that there is calm and normalcy is restored at the earliest.— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) February 26, 2020
