BJP Plans Protests Highlighting 1984 Riots Ahead of INDIA Bloc's November 1 Rally
The BJP is organizing protests in Delhi and Punjab around November 1 and 4 to counter the Congress-led INDIA bloc's rally at Ramlila Maidan, focusing on the 1984 anti-Sikh riots and justice for victims. The BJP-led events include marches and a conclave with riot victims and legal representatives. The INDIA bloc's rally aims to address electoral roll revisions and Election Commission concerns. BJP accuses Congress of politicizing the 1984 riots by scheduling the rally on a sensitive date, while Congress emphasizes democratic unity.
