HAMIRPUR (HP): (May 5) Former Union minister and BJP leader Anurag Thakur on Monday lashed out at Pakistan for “fomenting troubles” on the borders and said that if Pakistan continued with such anti-India operations, it would be “wiped out”.
The BJP leaders in Shimla submitted a memorandum to the deputy commissioner, urging him to immediately identify the Pakistanis living here both legally and illegally and ensure that they are sent back. The BJP workers and leaders also took out a protest march in the Lower Bazaar area of the town, raising anti-Pakistan slogans.
Himachal Pradesh BJP chief Rajiv Bindal said Pakistanis cannot be kept in the state and protests are being held at 17 places in the state. If the state government did not identify Pakistanis living in the state and ensure their repatriation, the BJP would launch a ‘Jagaran Abhiyan’ in the coming days, he said. PTI
