Top points on BJP’s nationwide protest against Bilawal Bhutto Zardari

1. The BJP will protest against Pakistani foreign minister Zardari’sdefamatory remarks made during a press conference at the United Nations in New York.

2. Describing Zardari’s comments as “highly derogatory and full of cowardice”, the BJP said the remarks were given to divert global attention from Pakistan’s collapsing economy, lawlessness and anarchy in Pakistan.

3. On Friday, BJP workers staged a protest outside Pakistan high commission in the national capital against the Pakistan minister’s statement. According to the BJP, while India’s foreign policy is being appreciated globally, Pakistan is facing backlash from even smaller nations.

4. Meanwhile, India also slammed Zardari for his “uncivilised outburst” at Modi. Spokesperson of the ministry of external affairs (MEA) Arindam Bagchi said, “These comments are a new low, even for Pakistan. Pakistan foreign minister’s frustration would be better directed towards the masterminds of terrorist enterprises in his own country, who have made terrorism a part of their state policy. Pakistan needs to change its own mindset or remain a pariah.”

5. On Thursday, EAM S Jaishankar hit out at Pakistan over its role in sponsoring and spreading terrorism and advised Islamabad to clean up its act and try to be a good neighbour.
