What would you describe as 'contempt of the nation'?

For a Mumbai local train commuter, the motorman crying "Jai Modi" post announcement on the train amounts to that.

Advocate SS Sayyed was more than just displeased when, while travelling on a Mumbai local, he heard the train's motorman ending his announcement with a loud cry of "Jai Hind, Jai Modi."

Sayyed was so annoyed at the motorman taking 'the' leader's name after saluting the nation that he slammed the motorman with a legal notice, one that may either set your head on fire, or leave you in splits.

"This act on the part of the motorman is contempt of the nation while on duty," read the notice. "I am shocked as to whether your Railway Ministry has taken such a decision that the name of the leader should be announced after the name of the nation."

He goes on to say, "This vulgar and offensive act on the part of the concerned Motor Man [sic] certainly amounts to an offence and contempt of the nation and has hurt my feelings as a Citizen of India."
