"Sengol: The Symbol of Power Transfer in India's Political History"
TL;DR Summary
Prime Minister Narendra Modi criticized the Congress for not giving due respect to the Sengol, a symbol of the transfer of power from the British in 1947, which was kept on display as a "walking stick" at Anand Bhawan in Prayagraj. Modi received a Sengol from Tamil Nadu Adheenams and said that it should have been given its due respect after Independence. He also highlighted the important role of Tamil Nadu in India's independence struggle and said that the contribution of the people of Tamil Nadu was not given the importance it deserved. The Sengol will be installed in the new Parliament building, which will be inaugurated by Modi on Sunday.
