Anti-CAA stir: Hundreds of people attend protest led by Bhim Army near jantar Mantar

Bhim Army members on Thursday joined the anti-citizenship law protesters at Shaheen Bagh here and demanded the release of their outfit’s chief Chandrashekhar Aazad.

Carrying posters of Azad and B.R. Ambedkar, the father of India’s Constitution, scores of members of the Dalit emancipation outfit raised slogans like “Bahujan-Muslim Ekta Zindabad” and “Jai Bhim”.

Aazad was arrested on December 21 in connection with violence in Old Delhi’s Daryaganj, a day after his outfit had organised a march from Jama Masjid to Jantar Mantar to protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act and the National Register of Citizens.
