New Delhi, Feb 21 (TIWN) A day after pro-Pakistan slogans were alleged raised at Asaduddin Owaisi's anti-CAA rally in Bengaluru and his party member Waris Pathan made communal statements, BJP called the AIMIM chief the "leader" of the nationwide protests against the contentious Citizenship Amendment Act.

At a press conference here, he said the Telangana Police gave permission to RSS to hold a rally and meeting in Saroornagar. Various pro-CAA meetings were allowed, including a meeting at Quli Qutub Shah Stadium. But no meeting or protest was permitted against CAA.

In fact, the organisers were forced to seek High Court’s intervention to organise Million March and despite HC’s nod, Telangana Police is not permitting women to organise protest against CAA, he alleged. So far, more than 1,000 cases have been registered against those participated in anti-CAA protests. “People are able to protest in some BJP-ruled States, but KCR government is not allowing any kind of protest,” he alleged.
