Foreign Delegation place Wine Glass over Tri Colour

[Raghuvir Kamath]

India's leading TV Channel just flashed a sensational story that is all set to create a furore in India. Some foreign delegates supported by the officials of Rajasthan Cricket Association, hurt the emotions of billions of Indians by using our 'Tri Colour' as a table to put their wine glasses. Unfortunately, they were sitting along with the Rajsthan Cricket officials and nobody protested. The incident occurred during the fifth ODI between India and Pakistan in Jaipur.

The news is being telecasted on the Aaj Tak channel repeatedly. So far, no one from the Rajsthan Cricket Board or foreign delegation has come forward to offer clarification on this matter.

After the reports came in, Jaipur witnessed protests over the deliberate insult and disrespect to Tri Colour. The agitation is likely to spread to other parts of the country. Indians must rise to the occasion and show that nobody can take us for granted. It's a huge shame that our own countrymen became a party to this shameful incident. The guilty must be punished immediately so that no such incident occurs in near future.
