Demonstration in New York

NEW YORK, APRIL 8. Several Indian organisations in U.S. today held a demonstration protesting Pakistan's role in the recent killing of 35 Sikhs in Anantnag and asked it to stop cross-border terrorism.

Holding Pakistan squarely responsible for the killing in Kashmir on the eve of President Clinton's visit to India last month, a leading Sikh organisation in the U.S., Sikh Sangat of America, said it is ``unfortunate'' that Pakistan had not learnt lessons from the 1971 war.

At the end of the demonstration they submitted a memorandum to the Pakistani consulate.
