Date:

A week after attack on the Central Reserve Police Forces convoy that killed 40 jawans, anger against Pakistan refuses to die down.

After boycotting actors and artists from Pakistan and implementing several diplomatic and trade sanctions against the Pakistan government, some people now seem to be objecting against the famous Karachi Bakery in Bengaluru.

An outlet of the Karachi Bakery in Bengaluru on Friday had to cover up the ‘Karachi’ part of its signboard after a group of people assembled outside the shop in protest against its name.

The bakery was started by a Sindhi Partition survivor Khanchand Ramnami in 1952 after he migrated to Hyderabad in 1947.

On Friday, a mob of unidentified people gathered outside the Karachi Bakery outlet in Indiranagar and demanded the shop remove its signboard.

Instances of hate and displays of hate against Pakistan have grown exponentially since the Pulwama attack on Feb 14, for which terror organisation Jaish-e-Mohammad has claimed responsibility. While the government is locked in a diplomatic tussle with the Pakistani government, common people have been expressing anger in various ways.

Muslims across the country, especially Kashmiris, have faced harassment with fear of mob violence driving thousands back to Jammu and Kashmir within just a few days.
