In Ratlam, Madhya Pradesh, a preschool's use of a Pakistan flag during an Independence Day play has sparked protests by right-wing groups, including the ABVP. The flag was part of a skit about India's Partition, shown alongside the Indian Tricolour. Right-wing protesters blocked Mhow-Neemuch Road for an hour, demanding action against the school. The Ratlam collector and DEO have referred the matter to the police, noting that preschools are not under the education department's jurisdiction. The school stated that the flag was used to depict historical events and has been misinterpreted. The incident is under investigation.
