Lucknow – The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and Bajrang Dal today staged a massive demonstration at Patel Pratima to protest the cowardly attack and brutal killings of innocent Hindus in Pahalgam by Pakistan-sponsored terrorists. The protest included burning an effigy of Pakistan and a signature campaign demanding action against the neighboring nation.
A large number of men and women activists from the Vishwa Hindu Parishad, Bajrang Dal, Durga Vahini, and Matrishakti gathered at the venue. They held placards with slogans like “Pakistan Murdabad,” “Islamic Jihad Murdabad,” and “Terrorism Murdabad,” and chanted anti-Pakistan and anti-terrorism slogans. The activists also paid their respects to the Hindus who lost their lives in the tragic incident.
Addressing the gathering, Provincial Organizing Secretary Vijay Pratap stated that the Vishwa Hindu Parishad is holding protests across India today. He informed that widespread demonstrations are being held in 25 districts of the Awadh province. He asserted that Hindu society will not tolerate attacks on innocent Hindus based on their religion. He further warned that VHP and Bajrang Dal workers will identify anti-national and anti-Hindu elements, as well as those who support terrorist and Jihadi ideologies, and respond to them in their own language. He emphasized that the time has come to eliminate such Jihadi-minded individuals.
Provincial President Kanhaiya Lal, who was also present at the protest, stated in his address that the government will give a befitting reply to the terrorists. He demanded immediate action against the terrorist camps operating in Pakistan. Various other office bearers expressed their views and offered condolences to the bereaved Hindu families.
