New Delhi: People today after Friday prayer gathered outside the Delhi Jama Masjid in protest against penal no-action stand of the government over the derogatory remarks on Prophet Mohammed by the suspended BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma.

A similar protest was also staged in of Uttar Pradesh's Prayagraj, Lucknow, Kanpur and Firozabad. There were reports of stone pelting in Prayagraj, and police charging on protestors.

The police forces beefed up the security where the situation remained volatile.

Scores of people, carrying placards, shouted slogans against Sharma.

A senior police officer said that while some of the demonstrators left the site after some time, others continued to protest.
