JAMMU, Sept 14: Anti-Pakistan protests were held on Thursday in various parts of the Jammu city

terrorists.
Scores of BJP youth workers, led by Jammu and Kashmir unit president Arun Prabhat, held a protest at
Pacca Danga assailing Pakistan for aiding and abetting terrorism in J&K.
They raised slogans against Pakistan and burnt posters of the country’s flags. “Pakistan is rattled by the
popularity of Bharat after the success of G20 Summit. That is why they are trying to disturb peace in
J&K. They want to create trouble in the region,” Prabhat told reporters here.
He urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to deal with the source of terrorism across the border sternly.
Dogra Front Shiv Sena (DFSS) workers staged a protest march in Jammu and demanded fresh strikes on
terror infrastructure in PoK. They shouted anti-Pakistan slogans and set Pakistani flags on fire.
“The latest martyrdom of officers is the fourth major incident in J&K this year. Though the overall
security situation is under control and militancy is almost finished, such attacks cannot be tolerated at
all”, DFSS President Ashok Gupta said.
He called for fresh strikes on terrorist infrastructure in PoJK.
He expressed hope the Centre and the J&K administration would take necessary measures to ensure
such incidents are not repeated.
The Yuva Rajut Sabha also took out a massive protest rally in Jammu to express anger over the killings.
