Bhima-Koregaon Riot: Protesters gather near Mumbai's CST demanding Sambhaji Bhide's arrest

Bhima-Koregaon Riot: Protesters gather near Mumbai's CST demanding Sambhaji Bhide's arrest 
Bharipa Bahujan Mahasangh President Prakash Ambedkar on Monday charged the BJP-led Maharashtra government of not arresting rightwing Hindutva leader Sambhaji Bhide alias 'Guruji' as he "enjoys the backing of Prime Minister Narendra Modi".

Addressing a huge gathering of Dalits and other parties' activists here this evening, Ambedkar - the grandson of the Architect of Indian Constitution B. R. Ambedkar - without mincing words, said "it is a well-known fact that Modi considers Bhide as his Guru."

"We are not interested in fighting with Modi. However, if action is not initiated against Bhide by Maharashtra government, then we know how to deal with it at the appropriate time," he warned. 

Ambedkar made it clear that everybody will have to bow before the wishes of the people and "we know how to make the Prime Minister or the Chief Minister (Devendra Fadnavis) bend before the masses."

"If the law is not implemented, and Bhide is not arrested within eight days, we shall chalk out our future strategy. Why should the law not be equal for everybody? If (another Hindutva leader) Milind Ekbote can be arrested, what has prevented Bhide's arrest since he is the prima accused in the Bhima-Koregaon incidents," he said.
