Punjab Congress MPs stands on Parliament's terrace, protest against 39 Indian killed

Punjab Congress MPs protest in Parliament demanding financial help for families of those who were killed by ISIS in Iraq's Mosul. The mortal remains of 38 of the 39 Indians killed in war-torn Iraq were brought back on Monday in a special aircraft and handed over to their relatives or local authorities in Amritsar, Kolkata and Patna. Minister of State for External Affairs V K Singh, who brought back the bodies from Baghdad, told reporters in Amritsar that Indian embassy did not have any record of the 40 Indians captured by the terror group ISIS in Iraq in 2014 as they had gone there through illegal travel agents.
