Bengaluru: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Wednesday will hold a protest against Amnesty International in Bengaluru over the alleged anti-national slogans raised at an event on Jammu and Kashmir organised by the human rights watch-dog.
The Kashmiris who were present at the event reportedly got into an argument with a Kashmiri Pandit leader for hailing the Indian Army.
Holding that it had organised the event as part of a campaign to seek justice for "victims of human rights violations" in Jammu and Kashmir, Amnesty International India in a statement had said towards the end of the event, some of those who attended raised slogans, some of which referred to calls for 'azadi' (freedom).
BJP Karnataka Chief BS Yeddyurappa will lead the protests against the NGO.
A sedition case was also filed against actor-turned-politician Ramya for praising Pakistan. In a media statement, Ramya refused to apologies for her comment and claimed that she has done nothing wrong.
