| Hundreds of protesters in Balochistan on Friday burnt an Indian flag and an effigy of Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, underscoring mounting tensions following the Mumbai terror attacks. Tribal elders, politicians and residents attended the anti-India rally in Chaman. "India wants to steal our water in Kashmir, and that is why it is piling pressure on Pakistan following the attacks in Mumbai," local politician Naseer Ahmed Bacha Khan told protesters. Pakistan has claimed India is building dams in the Himalayan region in violation of a 1960s water sharing accord brokered by the World Bank. Khan said the Pakistani people had been angered by India's alleged recent violations of Pakistani airspace, which prompted Islamabad to summon India's deputy ambassador on Thursday to lodge a formal complaint. India said Tuesday that the peace process with Pakistan was on hold, but reiterated it was not preparing for war. |
