The Madras High Court has granted Hindu Munnani permission to hold protests on August 27, 2024, demanding action against the alleged genocide of Hindus in Bangladesh. This ruling challenges the Tamil Nadu government's previous denials of permits for similar demonstrations, pointing out a perceived double standard in allowing protests related to other international issues while denying those addressing Hindu persecution. Justice G. Jayachandran criticized the selective enforcement of regulations and emphasized the democratic right to peaceful assembly. The court's decision follows a petition from Hindu Munnani contending that violence against Hindus in Bangladesh has escalated and has largely gone unaddressed in public discourse. The Tamil Nadu government argued that the situation had improved, but the court deemed their reasons for denying the protests insufficient. The upcoming demonstration is expected to take place without disrupting traffic, according to the court's directives.
