Udupi Congress demands action over RSS flag display at religious event

In a controversial move that has stirred political debate, the Udupi district Congress leaders have called for a formal inquiry into a government official’s display of the RSS flag during a religious event in the town last week.

According to reports, the official, whose name was not disclosed in the media, carried the RSS emblem while attending a local temple ceremony. Congress members, arguing that the government should maintain neutrality in religious affairs, have petitioned the district administration to investigate whether this act violates state protocols concerning public servants’ conduct in communal settings.

The demand for action, which cites concerns over preserving communal harmony and upholding secular values, has prompted the district administration to appoint an internal committee to review the incident. The Congress party’s stance underscores an ongoing national debate about the role of the RSS in public institutions. Source: Google News – Udupi District.
