The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) supporters disrupted the Kashmir Film Festival here on Saturday on the contention that the movies to be screened at this film fest are 'anti-Indian'.

The VHP activists took strong objection to screening of the movie, 'Kashmir in front of my eyes', and resorted to violence by vandalising property of the venue.

One of the protestors, Rahul, claimed that he had earlier alerted the police to stop the screening of the movies since these were anti-Indian, and he objected to his arrest from the spot and said that he came to assess the scenario.

"They are arresting me though I have peacefully told them not to screen the movies here and I am insisting again that these movies are anti-Indian," he said.
