Jaishankar Breaks Silence On Pro-Khalistani Protests; Gives Striking Message To Britain

Foreign Affairs Minister, S. Jaishankar on being asked about the recent Pro-Khalistani protests in various parts of the globe retorted with his furious statements. He gave a message to the British with regard to the respect of the Indian flag and said, “This is my flag and I will make it even bigger if somebody tries to disrespect it.”

As the Indian flag was pulled down in British Embassy, the foreign minister expressed his feelings about the same. He stated, “The first thing our high commissioner did was to even get a bigger flag and he put it right up there on the building. It was not only a statement to those so-called Khalistanis, but it was also a statement to the British saying this is my flag and I will make it even bigger if somebody tries to disrespect it.”. “In that sense, the idea that there is today a different India, an India which is very responsible and very firm,” Jaishankar added.

India will not accept its National Flag being pulled down

Foreign affairs minister S Jaishankar on Sunday said this is not an India that will accept its National Flag pulled down. “We have seen incidents in London, Canada, and San Francisco, there’s a very small minority, and behind that minority, there are many interests. Some interests are of neighbors, all of you know which one…” Jaishankar said. “We are very clear that it is the obligation of the country where these embassies are, where these diplomats are to provide security. After all, we provide security for so many foreign embassies…if they do not provide security; there will be reactions from India. The day when India would take this lightly, I would say, is behind us. This is not an India that will accept its National Flag pulled down,” Jaishankar said.
