Congress Demands Action Against Karnataka Official for Waving Saffron Flag

Congress Demands Action Against Karnataka Official for Waving Saffron Flag

There is a big discussion in Karnataka about a government official named T K Swaroopa.

She was part of a special event called the Paryaya Procession at the Udupi Sri Krishna Temple.

During this event, she waved a saffron flag, which some people say is connected to a political group called the RSS.

The Congress party in Udupi is upset and wants the government to take action against her.

They say she should not have done this because it goes against the rules for government workers and the idea of secularism in India.

Swaroopa says she was just doing her job and was not being political.

The Paryaya Procession is a tradition where different groups take turns managing the temple every two years.
