The controversy over flag hoisting on the occasion of Independence Day in the national capital Delhi is not coming to an end. State CM Arvind Kejriwal is in jail these days, so when he chose minister Atishi to hoist the flag, the Lieutenant Governor put a stop to it. Shortly after this, LG has nominated Delhi Home Minister Kailash Gehlot to hoist the national flag on 15 August.
On Tuesday, Delhi government minister Atishi had alleged that she was being prevented from hoisting the flag. She said, ‘The elected government of Delhi is being deprived of the right to hoist the national flag. A new Viceroy has come, he wants to hoist the national flag.’ She further said that the LG wants to hoist the national flag on Independence Day, hoisting the national flag is the right of the elected government.

Atishi further said that on 15th August we hoist the tricolor flag to celebrate the independence of the country and to raise the voice of the common people. Before 1947, the country was under the rule of the British and they used to rule here as per their wish. Today, the elected government of Delhi is being stopped from the right to hoist the flag, so it seems that a new Viceroy has come to Delhi.
‘Officials are not following CM’s orders’
Atishi said, “The elected government and the Chief Minister have the right to hoist the flag on Independence Day in Delhi but he is currently in judicial custody, so he asked me to hoist the flag as a minister. For this, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal wrote a letter and ordered that I should hoist the flag on 15 August as a minister but the officials refused to obey this order as well.
