BJP activists today staged a protest against JKLF chairman Yasin Malik's visit to Ajmer and demanded that the separatists leader be asked to leave the city.

BJP workers led by party MLA Vasudev Devnani burnt an effigy and shouted slogans against Malik in front of a hotel in Ganj locality where the JKLF chairman is staying for the last two days.

"We cannot tolerate the presence of anti-social elements like Yasin Malik in the holy city," Devnani said, adding, "We also submitted a memorandum to District Collector Manju Rajpal demanding that Malik be asked to leave our city immediately.

"While BJP activists were stopped from unfurling the national flag at Lal Chowk in Kashmir, an anti-national person is roaming freely in the country and we are against it," the legislator said.

Malik paid obeisance at the dargah of Sufi saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti yesterday, sources said.
