Akhila Bharatiya Vidyarathi Parishad (ABVP) took to the streets in Bengaluru and Mysore to protest against an event organised by Amnesty International India to draw attention towards alleged
human rights violations in Kashmir. Members of the ABVP protested outside the United Theological College on Millers Road on Sunday morning. On Saturday, Amnesty had organised an event
called ‘Broken Families’, aimed at highlighting human rights violations in Kashmir. However, arguments, slogans and counter-slogans broke out during the event. Three families from the Valley
were to speak about alleged human rights violations by the armed forces as a part of Amnesty’s Broken Families’ campaign. The event also included a performance by Kashmiri rapper Roushan
Illahi who goes by his stage name MC Kash. The performance was interrupted by sloganeering. Amnesty had obtained police protection for the event.
