Shivsena Threats:Indian Authorities ask Pakistani students to leave

LAHORE: Fifty Pakistani students, along with their teachers, on an exchange program to India were sent back to Lahore on Tuesday after they received threats from extremist organisations Shivsena.

According to Indian media reports, the students who reached India on May 1, were sent back home within a day, after threats were made to the host NGO for inviting the students.

Reportedly, the NGO has been advised by Indian government officials that the time is unfavourable for the exchange programme.

The students were threatened by Hindu nationalist Shiv Sena, after ties between the two countries deteriorated.

The students were a part of the cultural exchange programme and on a five-day visit to India. The students after the intimidation from extremists were terrified and remained inside their rooms.

They reached Wagah border safely today.
