Holding black flags, banners and placards, many of the protesters staged a sit-in outside the army installation to express indignation against the Indian move.
While shouting anti-India and pro-freedom slogans, they also called upon the UN to play its due role in held Kashmire.
"This world cannot afford to have another Paleostine, and we will not let it happen either," said Aziz Ahmed, a 32-year-old participant, alluding to a widely prevailing perception that the Hindu-nationalist BJP government had been seeking guidelines from Israel to render Kashmiri Moslems homeless in their own home on the pattern of the Paleostinians.
"The UN must intervene to stop India from going ahead with its ghastly plans in the disputed region of Kashmire," he added.
Many also called upon Islamabad to go beyond offering "mere" moral, political and diplomatic support to Kashmire.
