New Delhi, Dec 16: In response to Pakistan’s foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto’s remark that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was a ‘butcher of Gujarat,’ BJP members organised a large anti-Pakistan protest outside the nation’s embassy in Delhi.
They held up placards with the phrases ‘Pakistan hay hay’ and ‘Bilawal Bhutto maafi mango.’

To prevent the BJP workers from moving toward the Pakistani Embassy, the Delhi Police erected barricades. But the demonstrators managed to get past the first set of barriers and started moving in the direction of the embassy.
At the second line of barricades erected in the Chanakyapuri district, the police stopped them. There are also water cannons in this area. The police also apprehended a few BJP members.
At the UN headquarters, when S Jaishankar said, ‘Osama murdered in Pakistan,’ Pakistan’s foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari responded by criticising Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the 2002 Gujarat riots.

“(I want to tell India) that Osama bin Laden is dead, but the butcher of Gujarat lives and he is the Prime Minister of India. He was banned from entering this country until he became the prime minister. This is the prime minister of the RSS and the foreign minister of the RSS. What is the RSS? The RSS takes inspiration from Hitler’s,” Bhutto said.
Pakistan’s foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari was responding to External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar’s ‘Osama killed in Pakistan’ remark at the UN headquarters.
