A massive `tiranga` (tricolour) rally took place here on Sunday, with Jammu and Kashmir`s Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha declaring that the youth of the region have a deep affection for the national flag.

Participating in the rally organized as part of the Independence Day celebrations, Sinha, alluding to PDP president Mehbooba Mufti, stated that those who had predicted that there would be no one left in Jammu and Kashmir to hoist the tiranga should have witnessed the turnout at the event.
