SRINAGAR: Members of the Asiya Andrabi-led Kashmiri group Dukhtaran-i-Millat hoisted Pakistan flags at several places here on Wednesday, when Pakistanis celebrated Pakistan Day.

Activists and workers of the group hoisted the flags at several places in the city, including the Civil Lines and Lal Chowk , officials said. Police personnel later removed the flags.

Ms Andrabi’s group has been hoisting Pakistan flags every year on the occasion of Pakistan Day and independence day of Pakistan.

Last year she was booked under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act for unfurling a Pakistani flag.
