Operation Dudula march set to go ahead on Sunday
Updated | By Nushera Soodyal
The Durban march planned by members of Operation Dudula will
go ahead on Sunday.
Metro police have confirmed that a group of about 400 people have been granted permission to go ahead with the march in the CBD.
The movement's controversial stance on foreign nationals has come under fire as it says it's against the employment of illegal foreign nationals.
The organisation announced earlier this week that its members would embark on the march tomorrow and that it was given permission to do so.
However, eThekwini Municipality at the time said that it wasn't the case and that the application was still with its officials.

Metro Police spokesperson Parbhoo Sewpersad says the city manager approved the march later this week.
"The march is to be held on Sunday from our City Hall to Point SAPS. There will be 400 participants according to the permit and there will be forty marshalls. We have a full deployment and a joint deployment from Metro police and SAPS to police the march."
