Speaking on the occasion, Dhankar said the Yatra is being carried out by the BJP to mark respect to soldiers who laid their lives for the country.

“Tiranga Yatra got an overwhelming response in state. People are participating in the Yatra in large numbers to pay tribute to the martyrs,” said Dhankar.

Dhankar said the motive of this Yatra is to raise awareness among the youth about the sacrifices of Indian soldiers and to inculcate the spirit of patriotism among them.
