Mayor Ashok Lahoti instituted a policy for all civic body employees to sing the national anthem at the start and Vande Mataram at the end of working days

Jaipur Mayor Ashok Lahoti on Tuesday instituted a policy for all civic body employees to attend a rendition of the national anthem at the start of the working day and of the national song at the end, adding that anyone having an objection could "go to



Pakistan".

The national anthem — Jana Gana Mana — will be played at 9:50 am and 'Vande Mataram' at 5:55 pm.

"If anybody has any objection to singing the national anthem and the national song, then they should go to Pakistan. We are not telling people to raise religious slogans," Lahoti said.

The opposition Congress party was quick to lambast the move.
