New Delhi: The Prime Minister being shown black flags by Anna Hazare's supporters in Amritsar was an "unfortunate incident", the Congress said on Sunday, adding that people should protest against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for stalling the Lokpal Bill in the Rajya Sabha.

"It is an unfortunate incident. People should show black flags to BJP for they did not let the Lokpal bill pass through the Rajya Sabha," Congress spokesperson Rashid Alvi said.

He said the bill was passed in the Lok Sabha as the Congress was in a majority in the lower house, but that was not the case in the Rajya Sabha.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his wife Gursharan Kaur visited Golden Temple early Sunday to usher in the New Year. He was shown black flags by activist Anna Hazare's supporters as he came out of the Sikh shrine.

This was a praiseworthy act. People living in houses built of black money should not be afraid of black flag. They are modern Kali, devour any and every thing! Next time all of you will be wearing garland of shoes and riding black donkeys Alvi mian.
