The activists of ACC also held a protest outside the office of the state unit of BJP as they accused the saffron party of betraying the people of Jammu over the issue of AIIMS.
Heavy police deployment was made outside the BJP office which stopped the ACC activists from entering the party office.
"The Lalkaar rally started from near the statue of Maharaja Hari Singh and it went through various parts of the city. The aim of the rally was to inform the people of Jammu about the betrayal of the BJP and to get support from them for the upcoming 72 hours of Jammu bandh that starts from July 31," a spokesman of ACC said.
Commenting on the participation of people from all walks of life in the rally, he said it should open the eyes of BJP leadership in the state.
