BJP workers raised slogans against Bhutto and Pakistan and protested from Bhaseerbagh to Dr B R Ambedkar statue, Tankbund.

Subhash said that it was Bhutto’s way of gaining cheap publicity. “After the assassination of his mother Benazir Bhutto, he wanted to become the Prime Minister of Pakistan. But he could only become the foreign minister. hence, this cheap publicity,” Subhash said.
