Cake row: notice issued to Sachin

Indore, Nov 17 (UNI) A local court has issued a notice to cricketer Sachin Tendulkar for allegedly dishonouring the National Flag by cutting a cake with the tricolour on it.

Hearing a revision petition by Rajesh Bidkar, Sessions Judge Mohammed Shamim asked Tendulkar to appear before the court on December 15 and present his side.

Mr Bidkar's counsel Rajendra Sharma appeared before the court on his behalf.
