Jammu, July 16: Several social and nationalist organisations on Thursday staged a joint protest near the statue of Maharaja Hari Singh in Jammu, alleging disrespect to the Dogra ruler during a recent government programme and reiterating their demand for a separate Jammu state. The protest, organised on the call of Movement Kalki, was joined by the Rashtriya Bajrang Dal, Karni Sena, Rajput Ekta Manch, Shiv Sena (UBT), Ekkjutt Jammu and other groups.
