On Day 2 of fast, Modi faces ire of riot victims

​At least 25 persons, including activist Mallika Sarabhai, were detained as 2002 Gujarat riot victims were today barred from protesting against Chief Minister Narendra Modi's fast for communal harmony.

Post Godhra riot victims of Naroda Patiya area, Mukul Sinha of NGO Jan Sangharsh Manch (JSM) and Sarabhai were among 25 people detained when they tried to protest against Modi's Sadbhavana fast in Naroda area, police said.

Naroda Patiya, about 8 kms from the fast site at Gujarat University Convention hall, had witnessed the worst ever riots incident in 2002, when more than 90 people were killed.
