Warning

As of March 15, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) organization is holding rallies in the Reshimbagh Ground, Nagpur, Maharashtra State, through March 17. The action is to raise awareness of the organization's policies ahead of the 2024 general election. Prominent RSS and Bharatiya Janata Party members will lead attendees alongside other prominent political figures. Participation is likely to be in the thousands.

Additional demonstrations are possible during rallies. Likely rally spots include government buildings, parks, stadiums and thoroughfares. Authorities will likely monitor any demonstration and may disperse unruly crowds. Clashes between police and activists, alongside opposition groups, cannot be ruled out. Localized transport disruptions are likely, especially if demonstrators march alongside roads. Associated business disruptions are possible.

Avoid any demonstrations as a precaution. Allow for additional travel time if operating near the protest site. Leave the area at the first sign of clashes. Heed all security and traffic advisories.
