Police prevents BJP workers from hoisting flag in Lal Chowk

Srinagar, Oct 26 (UNI) Police on Monday foiled an attempt by few BJP workers of frontier district of Kupwara from hoisting the National Flag at Lal Chowk, nerve centre of summer capital, Srinagar.

A high drama was witnessed this morning in the civil lines when a group of BJP workers suddenly emerged in the area with tri-colour when all shops and business establishments were closed.

Raising slogans “ Bharat Mata Ki Jai” and “Kupwara unit of BJP Zindabad” were moving towards clock tower when police personnel deployed there swung into action. One of them was heard shouting, 'We will hoist Tri-colour in the entire Kashmir valley.'
