Congress workers stage protest outside BJP office in B'luru over 'purification' row

The Youth Congress staged a protest outside the BJP office in Bengaluru's Malleshwaram over the Haldwani 'purification' controversy. The row began after a 'shuddhikaran' havan was conducted at Ramlila Maidan, days after Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge addressed a rally there. Congress has called the ritual caste discrimination and has repeatedly demanded an FIR over the ritual.
