Taking exception to the continued violence in Manipur and that State administration’s apathy towards reinstating peace and also condemning violence in Haryana, hundreds of people, predominantly from the Christian community, accompanied by members of other communities took out a massive peaceful protest march in Hubballi on Monday.
Condemning the violence in Manipur and Haryana and atrocities on members of Christian community, they held placards and banners highlighting the need for restoration of peace in both those States.
The peaceful protest march began from the Dr Ambedkar statue near the Head Post Office and reached the Kittur Chennamma Circle after covering the thoroughfares of the city, including Station Road, Durgadbail, Koppikar Road and Sangolli Rayanna Circle.
