While India is celebrating its 77th Independence Day, there is disturbing news from West Bengal, where some people were seen disrespecting the Indian National flag. A kid allegedly identified as Rohingya Muslim disrespectfully grubbed up the national flag hoisted on the top of the house and threw it to the ground.
This incident came to light after a video of it went viral on social media.
This despicable incident occurred yesterday at Itinda, Basirhat; North 24-Parganas, in front of Police personnel. It should be noted that Bashirhat, a border town of West Bengal, is a hub of illegal Bangladeshi immigrants.
In the video, this kid first took down the flag and then threw it on the ground on Independence Day.
