Nation Reporter: Congress MPs protest, demand Centre to file review petition on SC/ST Act

Congress president Rahul Gandhi, along with other party MPs on Friday protested against the Supreme Court’s ruling on SC/ST act, demanding Modi government to file a review petition. Earlier on Tuesday, the apex court had laid down new guidelines that protect public servants from immediate arrest after a complaint is filed against them under the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. Following the SC's ruling, Congress leaders gathered outside the Gandhi Statue in Parliament and shouted slogans: “Daliton ke samman mein, Rahul Gandhi maidan mein (Rahul Gandhi fighting for the respect of Dalits).”
