The incident sparked tension between Vishvendra Singh, former Maharaja, and his son Anirudh. Anirudh filed an FIR against the intruders. Vishvendra supports the old flag, calling it tradition. Anirudh claims the new flag is for peacetime. The dispute is part of a larger property conflict between father and son. Vishvendra plans to hoist the 'correct' flag, Basant Panchami.
