MUMBAI: The prestigious Cricket Club of India (CCI) on Saturday covered a portrait of Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan, in a unique way of protest against the dastardly terror attack on CRPF convoy in Kashmir’s Pulwama.
On Thursday, at least 40 CRPF paramilitary troopers were killed in a terror attack while several others are battling for their lives following what is being termed as the deadliest terrorist strike in three decades in Jammu and Kashmir.
Pakistan-based terror organisation Jaish-e-Mohammad has claimed responsibility for it.
The CCI, which is an affiliated unit of BCCI, is home to the iconic Brabourne Stadium, which has hosted many Test matches and is considered to be a cricketing hub.
The entire CCI premises, including its restaurant, adorn portraits of the greatest cricketers across eras and from all nations.
Imran’s potrait is one of them as he was a distinguished former cricket captain, who led Pakistan to 1992 World Cup victory.
