Hyderabad: Bhim Army chief Chandra Shekhar Azad, who was detained in Hyderabad Sunday evening ahead of the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) meetings, was being sent back to Delhi on Monday.

The Dalit leader tweeted Monday morning that the police brought him to Hyderabad Airport and was sending him to Delhi.

Azad, who had arrived in Hyderabad to address two protest meetings against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, alleged that the dictatorship in Telangana is at its peak.

‘First, our people were beaten up with sticks and then I was arrested. Now, they have brought me to Hyderabad airport and sending back to Delhi,’ he wrote in Hindi.

Tagging Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao’s office, Azad wrote that Bahujan Samaj won’t forget this humiliation. ‘I will be back soon,’ he added.
