'Politicisation Of Colours Should Not Create Divisions': Oppn On Hockey WC Jersey Row
Samajwadi Party MP Pushpendra Saroj: Amid a controversy over the hockey team’s new saffron-coloured kit for the 2026 World Cup, Opposition leaders on Thursday hit out at the ruling BJP-led NDA, cautioning that "politicisation of colours" should not lead to divisions among people.
Speaking to IANS within the Parliament premises, Azad Samaj Party-Kanshi Ram chief and MP Chandrashekhar Azad said: "If the government has taken this decision, perhaps it is trying to bring things associated with the majority into its own colour. However, saffron is not their own colour. It has existed since the time of Lord Buddha."
While emphasising that sentiments of people should be respected, he said: "Politicisation of colours should not divide people's hearts. This kind of colour politics is dangerous."
