Tricolour painted on footpaths ahead of PM Modi's visit in Indore; Twitter users respond
Bhopal: A video from the footpaths of Indore is doing rounds on social media platforms triggering anguished responses from the internet users over the tricolour that has been painted on the footpaths.
The footpaths were painted in tricolour to mark Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit at the 17th Pravasi Bharatiya Divas.
In the video, the pedestrians can be seen objecting to the portrayal of tricolour on the footpaths while several countered that as thr Ashola Chakra was not painted the design doesn't represent or insult national flag.
Meanwhile, leaders of the TRS in Telangana too have been sharing the video, criticizing the design on the footpath. They have concurred the argument that it is an insult of the national flag.

If only chakra also painted along with tricolour that becomes national flag. Otherwise it is not and no insult can be made out.
