Chinese Flag On ISRO Ad: MK Stalin's Minister Accepts ‘Small Mistake’ Pointed By PM Modi

The Tamil Nadu government has admitted its ‘small mistake’ a day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi slammed MK Stalin-led Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) government over the photograph of a Chinese rocket in an advertisement for a new Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) facility.

Speaking to news agency ANI, Tamil Nadu Fishermen’s Welfare and Fisheries Minister Anitha Radhakrishnan said, “A small mistake has been made in the newspaper advertisement given by us regarding the setting up of rocket launch pad in Kulasekarapatnam area.”

“The image of the Chinese flag in the advertisement welcoming Prime Minister Narendra Modi was a mistake by those who designed the advertisement, which went unnoticed by us,” he added.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had, on Wednesday, pointed out the goof-up while inaugurating a new ISRO facility in the southern state. Prime Minister Modi said, “DMK is a party that does not work but stands ahead to take false credit. These people paste their stickers on our schemes. Now they have crossed the limits, they have pasted China’s sticker to take credit for the ISRO launch pad in Tamil Nadu.”

He said the MK Stalin-led government insulted India’s scientists and the space sector with the advertisement.

“They are not ready to accept India’s progress in the space sector and with the taxes that you pay, they give advertisements and do not even include a picture of India’s space in it. They did not want to present India’s space success in front of the world, they insulted our scientists, our space sector, and your tax money. Now it’s high time that the DMK is punished for their deeds,” he said.

Tamil Nadu BJP chief K Annamalai had alleged that the advertisement showed DMK’s commitment to China.
