Hundreds of Dalits, Tribals, Muslims and Christians from various parts of India gathered in New Delhi to protest against the implementation the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), the proposed National Register of Citizens (NRC) and the National Population Register (NPR).
The March 4 protest at Jantar Mantar, near the Parliament building, was organized by Save Nation Save Constitution Committee, a civil rights group.
“The unleashing of violence by anti social elements under the political backing on the citizens of the nation, particularly women from marginalized religious and caste communities around the country has led to a state of unprecedented insecurity among people,” says a statement issued by the organizers.
The protesters expressed deep anxiety against CAA which is to be used as a ploy to divide the society based on the religious identity.
