Opposition slams India-Pak match as 'insensitive'; AAP calls for boycott, protests in Delhi

The India vs Pakistan Asia Cup match has ignited a significant political controversy, drawing criticism from various opposition parties. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has initiated a protest march outside its headquarters in the National Capital, targeting the BCCI and the Bharatiya Janata Party. Protesters are seen sloganing, with heavy barricading and police deployment in place to prevent their march. Opposition parties, including Congress, AAP, and Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray faction), are condemning the match, labeling it 'insensitive' in light of a recent attack. AAP workers have engaged in symbolic protests, including burning an effigy and breaking a television. They are also urging the public to boycott the match across all platforms and plan to march towards venues displaying the game. The political fallout continues to escalate over the sporting event.
