A group of Shiv Sainiks on Monday morning protested at BCCI president Shashank Manohar's office here against his move to hold talks with his Pakistani counterpart Shahryar Khan to resume cricket ties between the two countries.
The Shiv Sainiks, numbering over 70, carried a black flag and shouted slogans of 'Pakistan murdabad' and 'Shashank Manohar murdabad'.
