India: People's rights coalition to hold protest outside Raj Bhawan in Ranchi 11:00-15:00 Sept. 10
Activists plan protest outside Raj Bhawan in Ranchi, Jharkhand State, India, 11:00-15:00 Sept. 10. Increased security, disruptions likely.
A people's rights coalition called the Janadhikar Mahasabha plans to hold a protest outside the Raj Bhavan in Ranchi, Jharkhand State, 11:00-15:00 Sept. 10. This is to demand the government acknowledges an array of issues, including repealing land acquisition acts, and additional state support for minority groups. Participation will likely be in the hundreds.
Authorities will likely monitor any such gatherings and could use force to disperse overly unruly crowds. Localized transport disruptions are likely, particularly if demonstrators block roadways. Isolated clashes between police and activists, as well as between rival groups, cannot be ruled out. Associated business disruptions are possible.
As a precaution, avoid any demonstration that materializes. Depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance. Plan accordingly for potential localized transport and business disruptions. Heed all official transport and security advisories.
