Left parties, student groups and activists on Friday, August 19 held a protest at Jantar Mantar in Delhi, demanding cancellation of the remission order of those convicted for the gang-rape of Gujarat riots survivor Bilkis Bano.
The protesters pointed out that the arrest of activists such as Teesta Setalvad and now the early release of those who committed widespread violence against Muslims highlights the majoritarian surge against the minorities in India.
