Today I am going to write about a topic which is one of my favorite. The topic which always encourages me. Whenever I see this great and pious thing, my whole body is completely replenished with feelings of proud and haughtiness. The thing rejuvenates me completely and diminish all feeling of being depressed and again gives me confidence.
That great thing is our national flag "THE TIRANGA". Our national flag also called Tiranga(because of having three colours). Our national flag was adopted on 22 July, 1947 during a meeting of Constitution Assembly. Gandhi first proposed a flag to the Indian National Congress in 1921.
The present day indian flag flag was designed by Pingali Venkayya, an agriculturist from Machilipatnam. The original design presented to Gandhi included two colours, red for the Hindus, and green for the Muslims. In the centre was a traditional spinning wheel, symbolising Gandhi's goal of making Indians self-reliant by fabricating their own clothing. The design was then modified to include a white stripe in the centre for other religious communities, and provide a background for the spinning wheel. Subsequently, to avoid sectarian associations with the colour scheme, saffron, white and green were chosen for the three bands, representing courage and sacrifice, peace and truth, and faith and chivalry respectively.
Former president Dr. S. Radhakrishnan explained about the National flag in Constituent Assembly which adopted it," Bhagwa or the saffron colour denotes renunciation or disinterestedness. The White in the center is light, the path of truth which guides us to the supreme truth and guide our contract. The green colour signifies our relation to the soil, our relation to the life here.
The Ashoka Chakra, in the middle having 24 spokes is the wheel of dharma. This chakra tells us that every indian should believe in dharma or virtue and should use them as controlling principles of the indians.
According to the flag code of India there is no restriction on the exhibition and hoisting of national flags by common people of India if the dignity and honour of the flag is continuously maintained. The flag should not be used as a drapery in any form except in State/Military/Central Paramilitary forces funerals. In such cases the flag must not be lowered into the grave or burnt into the pyre. The indian flag should not be wore under the waist and can't be used as parts of undergarments.
Showing and portraying disrespect to the national flag is a punishable offence.
For decades thousands of people and soldiers have lost their life for maintaining the dignity of flag and now its the responsibility and onus of the youth generationg to do something to maintain the country's full glory and the Tricolour flag should always be there flying higher.
We salute, relish and cherish our national flag.
