Indian national flag was burnt and a rally was organised, here on Sunday, as a protest against declaring India as the most favourite nation (MFN) and extending bilateral trade with the neighbouring country. The rally began from Chowk Kutchery and ended at Ghanta Ghar under the leadership of Tariq Naeemullah Khan, President of United Citizen Front (UCF).
Addressing the rally, Naeemullah said, "we are fighting against India since the creation of Pakistan and we never acknowledged it as our friend but present regime gave a status of MFN under the pressure of United States which is detrimental to our industry and economy."
Haji Mehmood Khan said, "India stopped our waters, constructed dams unlawfully and it is killing Kashmiri Muslims ruthlessly, how can we declare it MFN, he questioned. Khurshid Khawar said, "There should be no permission for the transit of Indian goods to Kabul via Pakistan."
The participants shouted slogans against President, Asif Ali Zardari, Prime Minister, Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani and Foreign Minister, Hina Rabbani for playing the role of 'lackeys of India'. They also shouted slogans against India and United States.
