Protests by BJP-JD(S) workers in Karnataka have intensified after a saffron flag bearing Lord Hanuman’s portrait was removed from a flag post. The incident has led to the imposition of Section 144 in the village, along with the deployment of police personnel. In response, BJP leaders and workers have taken to the streets, holding demonstrations in all district headquarters across the state. The protests are expected to continue until the saffron flag is reinstated on the flag post. The dispute highlights the religious and political tensions in the region, as the saffron flag holds significant cultural and religious symbolism for the BJP-JD(S) party and its supporters. The removal of the flag has sparked outrage and led to calls for its immediate restitution. The situation remains tense in Karnataka as protests persist.
