Andhra Pradesh Congress leaders staged statewide protests on Friday, burning effigies of the RSS to condemn the alleged "purification" of a rally venue in Uttarakhand’s Haldwani after party chief Mallikarjun Kharge’s meeting. APCC vice president Kolanukonda Sivaji accused the BJP of silence over the incident, calling it caste discrimination, and demanded cases under the SC/ST Act.
