Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers hoisted the national flag at Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) office in Jammu. The incident took place a day after party chief Mehbooba Mufti said she will not unfurl the national flag until she brings back the flag of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir. Subsequently, the BJP accused the former J&K chief minister of making “seditious remarks” and demanded she is put behind bars.
Meanwhile, BJP workers were detained during the party’s protest against PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti on Monday as police officials prevented them from hoisting the tricolour at historic Lal Chowk in Srinagar.
