Farmer protests is a matter of concern between India and Pakistan, says UK PM Boris Johnson Taking advantage of the protests by farmers in Delhi, the Khalistani elements in the United States have desecrated the statue of Mahatma Gandhi at the Indian Embassy in downtown Washington, DC on Saturday. The protest rally was taken out by Sikh-American youths in support of farmers who are protesting against the recently enacted agriculture laws in India, and similar rallies were also held in other states like New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Ohio and North Carolina. Though the protest in Washington was peaceful initially, it was soon joined by the separatist Sikhs who were carrying Khalistani flags with anti-India posters and banners with placards showing "The Republic of Khalistan".
