Bengaluru, Aug 15 (IANS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi, through BJP workers, has taken the Tricolour of our country to every home and made the youth understand the importance of Independence, stated Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council, Chalavadi Narayanaswamy on Friday.

Chalavadi Narayanasawmy said that Babasaheb Ambedkar has given India a strong and excellent Constitution that ensures equal share and equal opportunity for all. “The Indian Constitution and the national Tricolour flag are of utmost importance to us, he stated.

“Without the Rastriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), we might have ended up as Pakistan or Bangladesh,” he remarked.
