There are rumors that the Muslims were also against the march.

The police used a lathi charge to tranquilize them. Prabhakar Chaudhary, a senior superintendent of police and IPS, was following the event and transferred to Lucknow’s 32 Police Commiserate. Nevertheless, IPS Chaudhary, who has gone through nearly three decades of moves since joining the police department in 2010, is not acquainted with this.
Prabhakar Chaudhary, an Indian Police Service (IPS), is nationally recognized for his dedication to traditional policing that operates according to the rules and regulations. He disapproves of Uttar Pradesh’s pervasive encounter culture. Because he doesn’t follow the rules and toes their line, IPS Chaudhary frequently draws the wrath of the political elite.

He is renowned for his harsh rules and efforts to eradicate the local gangs and mafia. Yogi Adityanath, the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, presented Prabhakar Chaudhary with the Chief Minister’s police medal on Independence Day of last year in acknowledgment of his extraordinary commitment and selfless public service. When Prabhakar Chaudhary was appointed SP of Kanpur Dehart in 2016, he broke with precedent by choosing to travel to his office in a state roads bus and a tempo. In addition, he gained attention when he used his personal vehicle to drive injured people to the hospital while monitoring the rescue mission in Kanpur Dehat.
He is a native of the Uttar Pradesh district of Ambedkar Nagar. He was successful on his first attempt to pass the civil service exam. He was hired as an IPS officer in the UP cadre from the 2010 batch. He took decisive action against the mafia and neighbourhood gangs after seizing the administration of the Mathura area in 2017, exposed numerous looting cases, and ended illegal activities involving silver traders. After being posted there for three months, he was transferred out of the district.
According to reports, Prabhakar Chaudhary intends to join a federal agency soon and may even accept a central deputation.
