The protest was organised after a recent viral video showed two Manipuri women paraded naked by a Meitei mob, sparking outrage across India.
Several citizens and rights activists took to the streets despite heavy rainfall in Hyderabad in Telangana and Bengaluru in Karnataka on Friday, 21 July, accusing the BJP-led Union and Manipur governments of inaction in light of the violence in the state.
The Hyderabad protest was held at the Ambedkar Statue at Liberty Circle near the Tank Bund Road junction, which is opposite the newly inaugurated Telangana Secretariat and Martyr’s Memorial.
