Yogi Adityanath Tweets Pic Of Event With Inverted Flag, Deletes Tweet Post Trolling

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's visit to Mauritius attracted a fresh controversy when he tweeted a picture in which the Indian tricolour was placed in an inverted position. Yogi along with Giriraj Singh, Minister of State, had recently visited Mauritius to invite the non-resident Indians (NRIs) to invest in the state of Uttar Pradesh.

According to The Times of India, Yogi Adityanath and Giriraj Singh were signing a visitor's book and failed to notice that the Indian flag kept on the desk near them was kept inverted.

Yogi Adityanath shared the picture on Twitter but later deleted the tweet.

Giriraj Singh had also put out a tweet but unlike Yogi, he is yet to delete it.

While the inverted tricolour was a mistake on the part of the officials who arranged the desk, the picture went viral due to public perception of the two leaders who have always projected themselves as firebrand nationalists and patriots.
