Hyderabad: “Tiranga Rally,” an anti-CAA protest led by AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, was taken out here on Friday with thousands of people marching with the national flag.

Shops and establishments near Charminar downed shutters in support of the rally organised by the United Muslim Action Committee, comprising various Muslim groups. The rally which would cover a distance of about three km from Mir Alam Eidgah to Shastripuram began around 1 p.m.
