span style="font-size:14px;">Rajasthan: On Sunday, RSS worker had allegedly set himself on fire as he was upset over Bharat Bandh protests that took place on April 2. According to ANI, the RSS worker's friend told that he did so because he was very upset over Bharat Bandh protests. Various Dalit groups called for Bharat Bandh on April 2 to oppose the alleged dilution of the SC/ST Act.
On April 2, at least 11 people were killed in the protests across the country. The protest had turned violent after protestors resorted to stone pelting, damaging public properties & rail and various other blockades. Violent protests were reported from various states, including Uttar Pradesh, Odisha, Bihar, Gujarat, and Punjab.
On March 20, the Supreme Court had introduced the provision of anticipatory bail in the SC/ST Prevention of Atrocities Act while directing that there would be no automatic arrest on any complaint filed under the law.
Linking to the serial of protests, again a protest is going to be held on April 10 against caste-based reservations. The Union Home Minister has advised all the state and union territories to beef up security and take all necessary precautionary measures to prevent any loss of life or damage to the property.
