Case against Hazare for showing 'disrespect' to national flag (have fun -- a real joke)
by Seva Lamberdar Sat Aug 17, 2013 4:47 pm
JAUNPUR(UP): A local court on Saturday directed the police to register a case against social activist Anna Hazare for allegedly showing disrespect to the national flag during his visit here on July 29.
Chief judicial magistrate Narendra Bahadur Prasad directed the Line Bazar police to register the case and probe the matter.
The court's direction came on a petition filed by a local lawyer Himanshu Srivastava.
In his complaint, Srivastava has alleged that Hazare had come to a college to address a meeting during his 'Jantatra Yatra' on a vehicle, on which a full size national tricolour was pasted. The meeting went on till 8pm and this amounted to showing disrespect to the flag.
Earlier, a delegation of local lawyers had also met the Superintendent of Police stressing that though they were supporters of Hazare's anti-corruption campaign and had therefore gone to the meeting, they were hurt by the disrespect of the national flag at the meeting and demanded lodging a case.
According to the rules, the national tricolour should be hoisted from sunrise to sunset and not beyond that.

>>> There are crooks running free everywhere in the country without the courts and law doing anything about them. But a case has been registered in the court against a guy who is leading the fight against corruption in the nation for insulting the national flag (for showing it open / unfurled on his car after the sunset).
