Panchayat officer removes flag, Savarkar board

Hindustan Times  

Bengaluru: The gram panchayat public development officer of Tenginagundi village in Uttara Kannada district removed a saffron flag and Savrakar’s nameplate from a circle on Tuesday. A saffron flag was removed in Tenginagundi village in Uttara Kannada district “We did not issue permission to anybody to construct a circle or put up a board,” said gram panchayat PDO M Sanjeeva. We urged the PDO to remove all those boards also, but since he is acting as a puppet of a few leaders, he only removed the Savarkar’s board,” said Devadiga. “The majority of villagers have no objection to the board.” Meanwhile, the Congress-supported members of the village’s gram panchayat supported the PDO’s move.
