The protesters, who came from several villages in the district, alleged yesterday that Chandrasekhar had been falsely implicated in connection with the caste-based violence at Saharanpur.

The Bhim Army chief was arrested yesterday from Himachal Pradesh.

Staging a dharna outside a police station in the town, the activists also submitted a memorandum addressed to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath demanding the leader's release, SHO Sanjiv Sharma said.
