Hindu Munnani cadres burn Chinese flags

Coimbatore: Hindu Munnani cadres on Thursday burnt Chinese flags and destroyed Chinese smart phones during protests held in Tirupur and Coimbatore to condemn the neighbouring country for killing 20 Indian soldiers during the recent face-off in Ladakh.
Hundreds of protesters who gathered near the Tirupur city municipal corporation office paid homage to fallen soldier K Palani. While some of them raised slogans against China and burnt Chinese flags, others used sandals to beat photos of Chinese President Xi Jinping. Some protesters smashed Chinese-made phones on the road.
Hindu Munnani state president Kadeswara C Subramaniam, who led the protest, blamed DMK and Congress for not condemning China. “Those who are patriotic should condemn China. The Union government should impose a ban on Chinese goods and public should boycott them,” he told reporters.
As many as 250 Hindu Munnani cadres gathered at Sivananda Colony in Coimbatore city to condemn China. They burned Chinese flags, destroyed Chinese phones and raised slogans against China.
