Hyderabad: A massive protest was held here Sunday to condemn Israel's offensive against Palestinians.

The protestors raised slogans of "Down with Israel". They were also carrying placards with pictures of children and other victims of Israeli bombardment.
"Let Gaza live", "You don't need to be a Muslim to stand up with Gaza", "Murdering an 11-month-old cannot be said to be in self-defence" were some of the slogans on the placards.
The speakers urged the Indian government to severe diplomatic ties with Israel and revert to traditional policy of backing Palestinians. The SIO leaders also urged the Central government to exert pressure on Israel to immediately stop the air strikes.
"At a time when Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting Brazil to attend BRICS summit, India should raise the issue in the international arena and put pressure on Israel to stop atrocities,a said Laeeq Ahmed, president, SIO's Hyderabad unit.
