Below is the statement author and rights activist Ram Puniyani released on behalf of the organizers:

The last six months of Modi Sarkar has started to unfold its Hindutva agenda in a very blatant form. The statements of various BJP leaders, RSS and the larger Sangh Parivar; VHP, Bajrang Dal are not only frightening; they are in total violation of values of Indian Constitution. The actions of these organizations, the recent forced conversions for example are very intimidating not only to religious minorities but also to all those who want to safeguard and protect the values of our Constitution, secularism and democracy. The statements like Ramjade… This is a Hindu nation, Gita should be our national book, the propaganda around love jihad, the intense attempt to polarize the state of Delhi and UP, the burning of Churches are amongst the few examples which are undermining or rather are a direct onslaught on Indian Nationalism.

We need to collectively protest and make our resistance to this ‘march of communal fascism’ heard to all the sections of society. The recently held rally in Delhi, ‘Aabki bar Hamara Adhikar’ has been a very valuable step in this direction. We need to further broaden our alliance and plan a major campaign including a larger rally with the demands to protect the values of Indian Constitution, rights of weaker sections of society and rights and security of religious minorities. This is an appeal to all the friends engaged in human rights protection to come together.
