The event also witnessed family members of the those arrested and still in jail for the 2020 North-East Delhi riots bravely coming on stage sharing their stories. Scientist and Poet Gauhar Raza, Ananaya Gaur and artist collective RAAG also performed at the event.“My son has done nothing wrong, he raised anti-CAA protests to protect the constitution and democracy for the whole nation. He cooperated with the police whenever they summoned him for questioning but even then, they imposed various charges on him. I have full faith in the judiciary and hope he would soon be released,” said Shamshad, father of Shadab.Talking about the exemplary uniqueness of the Shaheen Bagh protest activist Apoorvanand said, “These women whose courage spread across the country were not seeking any improvement in their economic conditions. They were not demanding enhanced salaries or any such personal material benefits. They started a movement for equality, a movement to save the soul of India.”
