“They don’t realise glory of Tricolour”: Rajasthan ex CM Ashok Gehlot attacks BJP over Tiranga Yatra

Jaipur (Rajasthan) [India], May 29 (ANI): Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot criticised the Bharatiya Janata Party over organising the Tiranga Yatra and said that their leaders don’t even realise the glory of the Tricolour.
Speaking to ANI, Gehlot said, “Their leaders wipe their faces on the Tricolour… They don’t realise the glory of the Tricolour, and they have never accepted the Tricolour. They have not hoisted the Tricolour at their Nagpur headquarters for the last 80 years…”
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) launched ‘Tiranga Yatra’ on May 13. The yatra aims to honour the valour of Indian soldiers and inform citizens about Operation Sindoor’s recent success.
India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 in response to the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam that left 26 civilians dead. As part of the operation, Indian Armed Forces targeted terror infrastructure deep inside Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, eliminating over 100 terrorists linked to Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and Hizbul Mujahideen.
Earlier on May 24, Ashok Gehlot had termed the Enforcement Directorate’s probe against Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi in the National Herald case as “deliberate” and one which has no meaning.
Speaking to the media, Gehlot said, “An ED case has been filed against Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi deliberately, which has no meaning. False cases have been made; not even a rupee was transacted.”
“The BJP were not comfortable with Rahul Gandhi asking questions on Operation Sindoor, but he asked the same question which is in the minds of the public. It is the opposition’s responsibility to raise the public’s questions; this is democracy,” he said.
Ashok Gehlot claimed that the BJP is worried that if the newspaper restarts, it will voice opinions aligned with the Congress and its values.
“90 years ago, we started the National Herald newspaper. The Congress sought to revive it, but the BJP is worried because once the newspaper restarts, it will voice opinions aligned with the Congress and its values. They cannot accept the concept of secularism. To prevent the government from republishing the paper, they are resorting to various tactics, including filing numerous false cases,” the former Rajasthan CM said. (ANI)
