Protesters in Karimganj demand action against violence in Bangladesh

Thousands of protesters rallied in Karimganj today, organized by the Hindu Suraksha Bahini, to condemn the ongoing violence against minorities in Bangladesh. The demonstration was part of a broader “Bangladesh Chalo” campaign aimed at drawing attention to the plight of minorities across the border.

The rally began at Karimganj College and saw approximately a thousand participants marching through the city streets. Protesters carried placards and banners denouncing the violence inflicted upon minority communities in Bangladesh.

However, the protest encountered a significant hurdle at Santar Bazaar, where police had erected barricades to halt the march. This led to a temporary suspension of traffic on the national highway, causing a brief disruption for vehicles.
