The saffron color Hanuman flag removal by authorities from the 108-foot-tall flag post during the occasion of the ‘Pran Pratishtha‘ of Ram Mandir in January at Keragodu village had led to huge controversy in the state. It had also led to a war of words between the opposition BJP and the state Congress government.
The BJP said that the state Congress government is resorting to such an act to “check the celebration of Hindu activists for the sake of appeasement politics”.

The Hindu organizations have alleged that notices have been issued to Hindu activists by the Keragodu police asking them to reply in seven days about why a rowdy sheet should not be opened against them.
The police notice further said that the Hindu activists were indulging in ‘threatening people of other religions”, abusing them with vulgar language, and giving provocation in connection with the matter of the flag post.
