Leader of Opposition R Ashoka on Tuesday urged the people to participate in the Tiranga Yatra, part of a one-week state-wide non-political campaign in support of the 'Operation Sindoor,' which will be held in Bengaluru on 15 May.

"To show our support to 'Operation Sindoor' and armed forces, we will be holding Tiranga Yatra across Karnataka. In Bengaluru, we will be holding it on 15 May and in the rest of the places in Karnataka, one week after that. This is non-political, all people should participate in this," Ashoka said.

The campaign will be carried out by BJP across the country from 13 May to 23 May, as per sources.

Senior BJP leaders will coordinate the Yatra which will be led by Union ministers and chief ministers of the BJP-ruled states in different parts of the country, sources said. It will also involve ex-servicemen, social workers, and prominent social figures.
