AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj Tuesday termed Delhi Police's prohibitory orders against any protest or gathering in some parts of the city "Tughlaqi farmaan", and demanded its rollback claiming it has been issued to "ban" Hindu festivals and "hurt" their religious sentiments ahead of Navratri.

The Delhi Police on Monday issued the prohibitory order against any protests or gathering of five or more persons in the central and border areas of the city for the next six days, citing law and order issues. The order was issued under the section 163 (earlier section 144 of CrPC) of the Bharatiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita.
