NEW DELHI: The Indian government was deplored by the United Nations for planning to deport around 40,000 Rohingyas who have been residing in India. Multiple organisations, mostly Muslim took to the streets of Kolkata to protest against the genocide in Myanmar on Monday.
Approximately 25,000 to 35,000 protesters marched from Park Circus to Rani Rashmoni Road – a distance of about five kilometers – and paralysed traffic.
The slogans, banners and posters condemned Aung Sang Suu Kyi as strongly as Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for visiting Myanmar last week but failing to raise the plight of the Rohingyas with the Nobel laureate, reports NDTV.
