Saints and seers took to the streets here on Friday in protest against the atrocities on the Hindus in Bangladesh and threatened to march to the neighbouring country if violence against them did not stop immediately.

They asked the government in Bangladesh to stop such incidents immediately.

If the atrocities on the Hindus do not stop soon, the saints will march into Bangladesh, they said.

Before taking out the rally, the seers paid a tribute to the Hindus, who died in the violence in Bangladesh, on the banks of the Ganga at Har Ki Pauri here.

A large number of sadhus and saints took part in the rally.
