Congress leaders demonstrated in Dehradun, demanding an FIR for a recent ritual. Over thirty SC/ST MPs met in Delhi to seek a meeting with the President. They will submit a memorandum against the 'purification' act and demand an FIR. Congress leaders called the ritual an insult to the Constitution and untouchability.
