London's Indian High Commission releases video of Tuesday’s protest

London, September 5: On Tuesday, we saw thousands of British Pakistanis violently marched in London to protest against India’s move to abrogate article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir. In this regard, the Indian High Commission has released a video of the protest. The protestors had thrown eggs at the Indian High Commission building (IHC) building, smashing windows and causing chaos on the streets of London.

 

In a tweet, the High Commission of India in London posted the image of the damage caused. It said, “Another violent protest outside the Indian High Commission in London today, 3 September 2019. Damage caused to the premises.”

The ‘Kashmir Freedom March’ was organized by a large number of British Kashmiri groups, who marched from Parliament Square past Downing street to the High Commission building. Some UK labour MPs had also joined the protest. Slogans such as ‘Stop shelling in Kashmir’, ‘end the siege’, ‘We want freedom’ etc were raised by the crowd.

 

Previously, on Independence Day, Indians and people of Indian origin gathered outside the Indian High Commission in London to celebrate the 73rd Independence Day were abused and pelted with eggs and water bottles by Pakistan-sponsored protesters
