Massive protests erupted here on Monday against the terrorist attack on an Army base in North Kashmir’s Uri town in which 18 soldiers were killed with protestors burning Pakistani flags and its effigies.
College and university students, lawyers, political parties, traders and various other organisations took out separate protest rallies in solidarity with the army and against the Pakistan for “aiding and abetting terrorism”.
Jammu & Kashmir National Panthers Party (JKNPP) activists took out a rally from the Press Club area of the city and held protest demonstrations amid anti-Pakistan slogans.
They also burnt down the effigy of Pakistan and demanded the country should be declared as “terrorist state”.
“We demand that Pakistan should be declared as a terrorist State. Pakistan and its militants are attacking security forces and creating unrest in Kashmir. They are responsible for terrorism in Jammu & Kashmir,” JKNPP Chairman Harsh Dev Singh told reporters.
