Insult of national flag in Mandi exposed BJP: Himachal ministers

"The Tricolour is a symbol of the nation's identity, and countless brave soldiers and great leaders have sacrificed their lives for its honour. However, the way BJP workers insulted the Tricolour exposed their true face before the public. People of the state have now understood that the Tiranga Yatras of the BJP were just a show, as they have no real respect for the national flag," the ministers said in the statement.

BJP not only insulted senior state minister Jagat Singh Negi but also the country's national flag, exposing its' own 'true face, said Himachal Pradesh Health Minister Dhani Ram Shandil and Agriculture Minister Chander Kumar on Sunday. 


In a joint statement, the ministers denounced an incident of "misconduct" with Revenue Minister Negi in the Thunag area of Mandi district, alleging that the BJP workers acting under the instructions of party leaders threw shoes, slippers and black cloth on the national flag mounted on the minister's car, calling it a "highly shameful" and "condemnable" act. 


"The Tricolour is a symbol of the nation's identity, and countless brave soldiers and great leaders have sacrificed their lives for its honour. However, the way BJP workers insulted the Tricolour exposed their true face before the public. People of the state have now understood that the Tiranga Yatras of the BJP were just a show, as they have no real respect for the national flag," the ministers said in the statement.

"The state government decided to temporarily shift the Forestry College from Thunag to ensure students' safety, but BJP leaders are turning it into a political issue, risking the safety of students to gain political mileage," the statement said. 


The ministers then accused the Bharatiya Janata Party of playing petty politics. 


"Revenue Minister Negi visited Seraj and other parts of Mandi district affected by the recent natural disasters to assess the damage caused to farmers and horticulturists, and to prepare a suitable relief package. The farmers in Mandi suffered heavy losses in the apple orchards and polyhouses used for floriculture."
