Member of Legislative Council Lella Appireddy has said that the national tricolour will be unfurled at Jinnah Tower on February 3. Mr. Appireddy was addressing a meeting with elders of minorities at the GMC Council hall on Tuesday.
The Guntur Municipal Corporation has painted the Jinnah Tower in colours of the Indian flag in a bid to wrest initiative, after putting up an iron fencing around the tower.
“Guntur town is an enduring symbol of Hindu-Muslim unity and no force can disrupt this secular tradition in the town. Jinnah Tower is among the enduring symbols of freedom movement and so we decided to paint the tower Ron national tricolour,” said Mayor Kavati Manohar Naidu.
