In a tweet, Patel said, "Visited the Red Fort this morning with the secretary, ministry of culture, and the ASI Director General. Asked for immediate submission of a report and for mandatory registration of FIRs against the miscreants."
Patel had on Tuesday strongly disapproved the invasion of the Red Fort by protesting farmers. "The Red Fort is a symbol of the dignity of our democracy. The protesters should have left it alone. I strongly condemn their action. It is sad and unfortunate," he had tweeted.
