Dehradun, March 25

Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarathi Parishad (ABVP) members staged a demonstration at the District Magistrate’s office here today seeking compulsory installation of the national flag in all colleges and universities of Uttarakhand.

The protesters welcomed the recent decision of the Union Human Resource Development Ministry to ensure the national flag is installed at all universities across the country. They said it was a matter of concern that most of the colleges and universities across the country today had become a safe haven for anti-national voices.

The protesters said it was important that flags are hoisted regularly in higher education centres such as colleges and universities in Uttarakhand.
