Three men were arrested in eastern India’s Bihar state for hoisting a saffron flag on a mosque on the occasion of Ram Navami, a Hindu religious festival, state police said.
Triggering a controversy, Eshwarappa had allegedly said that the saffron flag in the future could become the national flag and it will be unfurled at the Red Fort.
The tense situation occurred when the Congress made a preliminary submission seeking to move an adjournment motion demanding a dismissal and sedition case against minister E.M. Eshwarappa.
The Congress in Karnataka is all set to corner the state government inside and outside the Assembly on the statement of Minister for Panchayat Raj and Rural Development K.S. Eshwarappa regarding the hoisting of a saffron flag on the Red Fort.
