Members of the BJP led by its district president Sibaji Mohanty, Balangir MP Sangita Singh Deo and other senior leader KV Singh Deo and Pradeep Purohit marched through the town and held a meeting before the district Collectorate on Monday in support of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).
BJP activists raised slogans against the Congress for “misleading” the people over the new law.
The purpose of the rally was to generate awareness among masses about the CAA by pointing out the “disinformation campaign” by the Congress and the Left parties, Sangita Singh Deo told reporters.
The opposition parties being left with no real issues are spreading misinformation about the CAA, she added.
