50,000 flags to be distributed to party workers, motorcycle rallies also planned.
Ramping up its Independence Day celebration plans after the Centre revoked Jammu & Kashmir’s special status on Monday, the Bharatiya Janata Party’s State unit intends to distribute 50,000 Indian flags to its workers to hoist on August 15.
“People should know that it’s a jashn [celebration],” BJP J&K unit president Ravinder Raina told party workers, who had gathered at the office here on Friday as he distributed flags to them.
As Mr. Raina and the BJP made preparations for motorcycle rallies and programmes on August 15, large parts of Jammu and Kashmir remained under curfew-like conditions for the fifth day.
