Activists of the Progressive Organisation for Women (POW) staged a demonstration here on Sunday in protest against the arrest of Teesta Setalvad, an activist who had pursued the 2002 Godhra riots case against Narendra Modi, then Chief Minister of Gujarat, for his alleged role in the violence.
Leading the protest, POW national convener V. Sandhya said the arrest by the anti-terrorism squad (ATS) of the Gujarat police came less than a day after the Supreme Court gave a clean chit to Mr. Modi in the case.
