nationwide protests of Indian Shia Muslims

Shia Muslim communities, along with political parties (such as the CPI(M) and local groups), organized rallies and candlelight vigils in more than 12 states and union territories of India, directly condemning the killing of the Iranian leader and US-Israeli aggression. The primary objective is to express solidarity with Iran, condemn the war, and pressure the Indian government to take a clear anti-war stance.

*Widespread in Bihar, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Kashmir, Telangana, Karnataka, and other states (with a focus on Lucknow and Hyderabad).
