Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and Bajrang Dal on March 9 held a protest in Delhi against the attacks on Hindus in Jammu & Kashmir. They also burnt the effigy of state Governor NN Vohra. The protest was held against the recent attacks on Hindus in Rajauri and booking them in false cases. They also raised questions on reducing the duration of Amarnath Yatra. VHP alleged that the J&K Governor and Chief Minister were taking decisions on the pressure of anti-national elements. They further alleged that terror groups are terrorising Hindus living in the border districts of the state.
Senior VHP leader Shri BL Sharma ‘Prem’ asked whether Hindus have no right to practice their religion in the state. “Why the religious precession was attacked in Rajauri by the anti-national elements in front of the administration?,” he asked. He added that instead of detaining attackers the police arrested Hindus. He demanded immediate release of those detained in false cases, withdrawal of false FIRs lodged and restoration of Amarnath Yarta duration at least for two months.
