An arrest warrant has been issued against Bharti by a Hubli court in a 10-year-old riot case.

On August 14-16, 1994, way before the Bharatiya Janata Party [ Images ] came to hold the reins of power at the Centre, Bharti led an agitation and hoisted the tricolour at the Idgah Maidan in Hubli, Karnataka [ Images ].
 
Since the ground was disputed, and the BJP activists had defied an order banning assembly at the spot, a criminal case was filed against Bharti and 21 others.

Bharti on Monday said she will unfurl the national flag at the same ground on Tuesday.
