Anitha Radhakrishnan, a minister for Tamil Nadu and leader of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), acknowledged that the MK Stalin government had committed a small mistake the day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi had chastised them over a picture of a Chinese rocket in an advertisement for a new ISRO facility. According to Radhakrishnan, officials failed to notice an error made by the advertisements designers.“A small mistake has been made in the newspaper advertisement given by us regarding the setting up of a rocket launch pad in the Kulasekarapatnam area,” he told ANI on Thursday.“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.The statement from Stalins minister came after PM Modi on Wednesday during a gathering lashed out at the DMK government for pasting Chinas sticker to take “false credit” for ISROs facility in Tamil Nadu.PM Modi while addressing the rally said, This not only shows the state governments insult to Indian scientists and their hard work, but also their hesitance in accepting New Indias unprecedented leap in the space sector.The DMK Govt has used Chinas flag on the ISRO launchpad in Tamil Nadu.This not only shows the state governments insult to Indian scientists and their hard work, but also their hesitance in accepting New Indias unprecedented leap in the space sector.Listen to PM Modi… pic.twitter.com/eKsLa4WlRs— BJP (@BJP4India) February 28, 2024
