A large demonstration took place outside the Indian High Commissioner in Aldwych, London, organized by the British section of the Pakistani-Nawaz Muslim League (PML-N).
The demonstration was in response to what the organizers described as “baseless allegations” made by India against Pakistan after the April 22 incident in Pahalgam, located in Jammu-et-Cachemire occupied by the Indians and the Iiojk).
The demonstrators agitated Pakistani flags and transported signs while singing slogans such as “Pakistan Zindabad”, “Cashmire belongs to Pakistan” and “Down With Indian Terrorism”.
They also raised songs supporting the military leaders of Pakistan. Slogans have also been directed against Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Hindutva ideology, including “Modi is a terrorist” and “reject Hindutva ideology”.
Ahsan Dar, president of PML-N UK, addressed the crowd and said that the rally was a reflection of the Pakistani link abroad with their homeland.
He accused India of launching a false flag campaign by blaming Pakistan without presenting any evidence concerning the Pahalgam incident.
DAR also noted that the members of various political groups, including PTI and PML-N, participated in the demonstration, calling it a sign of national unity.
The demonstration remained peaceful but drew media attention. London police were present on the site and managed security.
