ISLAMABAD: Indian extremist Party Shiv Sena on Saturday attacked an ongoing Pak-India exhibition in the Deradoon City of Indian state of Jhaarkhand.

Shiv Sena activists stormed the exhibition, shut the doors, and chanted anti-Pakistan slogans. They also forced the Pakistani stalls to close and changed the name of exhibition to Indo-Asia from Indo-Pak.

The Pak-India exhibition started on January 7 and will continue till January 10, a private TV channel reported.

Later, the local administration provided security to continue the exhibition.

This is not the first time Shiv Sena workers have shown their anti-Pakistan sentiments.

In October last, activists of the hardline Hindu party, angry at the launch of a former Pakistani foreign minister Khurshid Mehmood Kasuri’s book, doused the event organiser with black ink in Mumbai.

In the same month, activists of Shiv Sena stormed the headquarters of the Indian cricket board in Mumbai shortly before Indian cricket officials were scheduled to meet their Pakistani counterparts to discuss the revival of cricket ties between the two nations.
