With protests over the Supreme Court verdict on Sabarimala escalating, two Right-wing outfits Wednesday called for a 24-hour hartal starting midnight, PTI reported.
The outfits, ‘Antharashtriya Hindu Parishad’ led by former Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) chief Pravin Togadia and the ‘Sabarimala Samrakshana Samithi’, have been protesting the CPI(M)-led LDF government’s decision to implement the top court’s verdict permitting women of all age groups to enter the hill shrine of Lord Ayappa.
