Several hundreds of local youths took to the street on Saturday afternoon in a rally to show support to the holy prophet of Islam.
The rally with thousands of participants had been a response towards the recent insulting remarks by Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) executive members.
The rally concluded with the participants burning pictures of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with BJP's now expelled members Nupur Sharma and Naveen Kumar who had vocally insulted the Islamic prophet.
Earlier, the Maldivian government had condemned the hurtful remarks of the BJP executive members.
