Teenager vows to hoist tricolour at Srinagar's Lal Chowk

CHANDIGARH: Teenager Jhanvi Behal from Ludhiana, who had taken the internet by storm in March by challenging Jawaharlal Nehru University student union president Kanhaiya Kumar for an open debate on freedom of expression, has once again managed to bring all eyes on her after announcing that she would be hoisting the Indian tricolour at Lal Chowk in Srinagar on August 15. The Ludhiana girl said, "Main 15 August ko Lal Chowk pe tiranga phairaongi, kisi mein himmat hai to rok ke dikhaye (I will hoist the Indian tricolour at Srinagar's Lal Chowk on August 15. Stop if you can)." She said the decision was made after a few separatist leaders and students insulted the national flag recently by hoisting Pakistan's flag in the region.
