Youth Congress workers on Saturday staged a protest outside the Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi over the recent terror strike in Gurdaspur, Punjab, as also against Pakistani scientist Abdul Qadeer Khan's derogatory remark on former President A. P. J. Abdul Kalam.

One of the protesters told ANI "After Gurdaspur terror attack, the Home Minister (Rajnath Singh) told Parliament that Pakistan was involved in the incident. Today, our protest is to demand the closure of Pakistan High Commission as soon as possible."

He added "Pakistan should change its ways, or else, they will have face the same consequences as they did in Kargil (in 1999).
