SUI (Dunya News) – Locals in Dera Bugti’s Sui area on Wednesday took to the streets over Indian Prime Minister Nerendra Modi’s anti-Pakistan statements.

People chanted slogans against India while holding placards and banners in the rally led by tribal leader Mir Jan Mohammad Bugti.

They also raised voice in the favor of Pakistan army personnel and pledged full support to them.



Talking to the participants of the rally, Jan Mohamamd Bugti said that India’s lies have been exposed. He said balochis disown Brahumdagh Bugti.

Tribal leader also urged the international community to take notice of Indian brutality in Occupied Kashmir.

Meanwhile, protesters also set Modi’s status ablaze during the rally.



Tensions between the two arch rivals have been boiling since the Indian government accused Pakistan-based militants of launching an assault on an army base in Kashmir earlier this month that killed 18 soldiers.

India said on Thursday it had carried out "surgical strikes" in Azad Kashmir, a claim that Pakistan condemned and denied.

On the same day, two Pakistani soldiers were martyred when Indian forces opened unprovoked firing in Bandala sector and Poonch’s Batal sector.

"This is a dangerous moment for the region," Pakistan’s Ambassador Maleeha Lodhi said after meeting with UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon at UN headquarters in New York.

Ban Friday offered to act as a mediator between New Delhi and Islamabad to defuse the tensions.

India and Pakistan have fought three wars since they gained independence from Britain seven decades ago, two of them over the disputed Himalayan region of Kashmir.
