PoliticsProtest in Kolkata for Chinmay Das's Release Turns Violent with Police Clash
On Saturday, Hindu saints and activists, including members of the Nationalist Citizens Party of India allied with BJP, protested in Kolkata demanding the release of Hindu saint Chinmay Krishna Das from a Bangladesh jail. The protest turned violent near Bangladesh's Deputy High Commission in Kolkata's Beliaghata area when police barricades were breached, leading to clashes. Protesters later staged a sit-in demanding his immediate release, alleging prolonged detention without fair hearing since 2024.
