BJP to 'march to Dhaka' to protest attacks on minorities

The BJP plans a ‘ long march to Dhaka’ Monday to protest against reported atrocities on religious minorities in Bangladesh and express solidarity with protestors demanding death penalty for those convicted of war crimes. ‘Over 700 BJP activists, including women, would participate in the 'long march to Dhaka' to protest atrocities on religious minorities and their installations in Bangladesh. This rally is also to express solidarity with protestors of Ganajagaran Mancha,’ BJP's Tripura unit president Sudhindra Dasgupta said. ‘We know that our protest march would not be allowed to enter Bangladesh, but we cannot remain silent over the series of atrocities on minorities,’ he said.
