Islanders may observe Monday as ‘black day’
The Hindu
To wear black masks and flags on Patel’s arrival
The Save Lakshadweep Forum, a collective of all political formations in the union territory which was formed to fight the unwelcome reforms being pushed by the administrator Praful Khoda Patel, may observe a ‘black day’ on June 14, the day Mr. Patel is slated to arrive at Kavaratti for a week-long visit. A suggestion that came up at a meeting of the forum was that everyone should wear black masks and badge and protest in front of their homes on the day of Mr. Patel’s arrival. The meeting resolved to support filmmaker and Lakshadweep native Aisha Sultana, who has been charged with sedition for a television comment. The sole BJP member in the forum’s core committee did not support the decision.
