The activists were led by Dalbir Singh Sinar, the leader of Uttar Bharaitya Saurakshan Samiti.

According to the Samiti, they burnt the effigy to protest against the provocative speeches made by north-Indian leader against Maharashtrians which polluted the atmosphere here while the north Indians lived cordially in Maharashtra without any issues.

While the Srinagar police have registered offences against the mob, no arrests has been made so far in this connection.
