Pahalgam attack: Indian diaspora groups counter Pakistani protest in London

LONDON: (Apr 28) A large number of Indian community and diaspora representatives descended upon the High Commission of India in London to counter a Pakistani demonstration that was called to protest against what was branded as “Indian propaganda” in wake of the Pahalgam terror attack.

Chanting “Bharat Mata ki Jai” and “Vande Mataram” and waving the Indian Tricolour, the pro-Indian demonstrators outnumbered the smaller group of British Pakistanis across the road from India House on Sunday evening.

There was significant Metropolitan Police presence, with officers on guard to ensure both groups were kept far apart as they hurled insults at each other. PTI
