Panchkula: On the occasion of the 67th Republic Day, Muslim Rashtriya Manch (MRM), an affiliate of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), is set to organise flag hoisting ceremonies at around 1,500 madarsas across the country.

Media Reports have confirmed that senior RSS leader Indresh Kumar will hoist the Tricolour at a madrasa in Rai Purani, near Panchkula in Haryana.
