New Delhi, Nov 2: Lawyers and police personnel clashed at Tis Hazari Court complex here on Saturday afternoon during which a police vehicle was set afire, officials said.

Lawyers alleged that two of their colleagues were injured, including one in police firing, but the police denied that it had opened fire.

There was an argument between some lawyers and police personnel apparently over a parking issue which turned ugly, eyewitnesses said.

A police vehicle was set on fire during the fracas, the officials said, adding that the Fire Department dispatched ten fire tenders to the spot.

Meanwhile, lawyers sat on a protest at the gate of the court premises, alleging that the police personnel had opened fire during the incident and demanded action against those involved.

New Delhi (PTI): India can play a "greater role" for peace in West Asia, Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi Thursday said.

Addressing a press conference here, he said there is no military solution to anything related to Iran.

He also said Iran is ready to help pass all vessels through the Strait of Hormuz, adding the situation in Strait of Hormuz is very complicated now.

Araghchi, who is in New Delhi to attend a BRICS conclave, said there can't be any solution other than a negotiated settlement on the West Asia crisis.

"We will welcome any constructive role by India," he said.

On negotiations with the US, he said these are "suffering from trust".

"Iran has every reason not to trust US while Americans have every reason to trust us," he said.

According to Araghchi, mediation by Pakistan has not failed yet.

He also asserted Iran has never wanted nuclear weapons.
