PTI, NEW DELHI: Alleging atrocities against Dalits have increased since the ‘Bharat Bandh’, the Bhim Army today said it will hold a peaceful protest in Delhi on April 18 during which the demonstrators would “court mass arrest”.
The Dalit emancipation group’s national president, Vinay Ratan Singh at a press conference here, alleged that the country would face a “civil war-like situation” if the government did not step up and took actions to stem caste-related violence.
“So, we are going to hold a protest on Parliament Street on April 18. And, all those people who are facing persecution or false cases will assemble and court mass arrest. We even invite all those who advocate justice to join us,” Singh told reporters.
