Nov 02, 2024
In Bangladesh, Sanatan Jagran Mancha held a massive rally in Chattogram on Friday, demanding the withdrawal of a "false" case filed against 19 people, including Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari of International Society for Krishna Consciousness(ISKCON).
The platform issued a two-day ultimatum and threatened to launch a series of protests if the case is not withdrawn by coming Monday. Chinmoy Krishna Das is the spokesperson of Sanatan Jagran Mancha, a platform advocating for the rights of Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh.
On Friday, defying various barriers, thousands of Hindus joined the protest rally organised by Sanatan Jagran Mancha in the Cheragi Pahar area of Chittagong in the afternoon reiterating their eight-point demand.
Addressing the rally, Gauranga Das Brahmachari, one of the organisers of the Sanatan Jagran Mancha, said they would submit a memorandum to Prof. Muhammad Yunus, the head of the Interim Government of Bangladesh to the withdraw the false case, and if it does not work they would declare a tougher programme across the country.
