Protest held in Washington against Indian intervention in Balochistan

WASHINGTON: Scores of Pakistani-Americans protested outside the Indian Embassy, demanding an end to Indian intervention in Balochistan.

The hour-long protest in the heart of the US capital brought Pakistani-Americans from the districts of Columbia, Virginia and Maryland.

Some of them were carrying pictures of the Indian spy arrested recently in Balochistan.

They regretted that India was encouraging separatist elements in Pakistan and urged the US government to use its influence to stop this intervention. This peaceful demonstration in one of Washington’s busiest areas drew the attention of hundreds of people.
