To make access to the National Flag easier for
citizens, the Flag Code of India 2022 was
amended by the government. The Flag Code
of India consists of set laws and conventions
concerning the use, display, and hoisting of
the Indian national flag and it instructs how
private, public and government institutions
must display the national flag.

After the amendments, the use of certain


materials and machines have been allowed to
make the National Flag. Also, all citizens of
the country are now allowed to hoist the flag at
home day and night. However, there are still
some rules that every citizen must follow to
hoist the flag at home. Here’s all you need to
know.

When can the national flag be flown?

The recent amendments made by the


Government of India allowed the display of the
national flag both day and night, only if it is
displayed in the open or in the house of a
member of the public. Earlier the national flag
could only be hoisted between sunrise and
sunset.

Here are some dos and don’ts regarding the


display of the National Flag at home.

The Tricolour on display should occupy the


position of honour and should be distinctly
placed.

A damaged or dishevelled flag should never


be displayed. The National Flag should
always be in perfect condition.

The Tricolour should never be displayed


inverted, which means the saffron band
should never be at the bottom.

The national flag should not be dipped in


salute to any person or thing.

No other flag or bunting should be placed


higher than or above or side by side with the
National Flag.

No object, including flowers, garlands, or


emblems, should be placed on or above the
flag mast.

The National Flag should not be used as a


festoon, rosette, bunting, or in any other way
for decoration.

The National Flag should not touch the


ground or the floor or trail in the water under
any circumstance or condition.

There should be no lettering on the flag

How should the National Flag be disposed of?

The damaged or weathered national flag must


be disposed of as a whole in private. It can be
done by either burning or any other method
that gives due regard to its dignity.

Rakesh Jhunjhunwala died on Sunday


morning in Mumbai. He turned 62 in July.
Here are the most inspiring quotes from
the veteran stock market investor who
started with Rs 5,000 in 1985 and built a
net worth of $5 billion as of 2022.

Ad

Rakesh Jhunjhunwala built a $5 billion net


worth. He started dabbling in stocks while still
in college, even after his father refused to offer
him money for trading. He is often referred to
as India's Warren Buffett.

Ad

Jhunjhunwala began investing with $100 in


1985 when the Bombay Stock Exchange
Index was at 150.

Jhunjhunwala was said to be an investor with


a Midas touch. His most valuable listed
holding was watch and jewellery maker Titan.

Over the years, the ace investor successfully


invested in CRISIL, Sesa Goa, Praj Industries,
Aurobindo Pharma and NCC.

His early bets on Star Health & Allied


Insurance and Metro Brands paid off when
both companies were listed in 2021.

Jhunjhunwala ran a privately-owned stock


trading firm called RARE Enterprises. The
trading firm derives its name from the first two
initials of his name and his wife Rekha's.

He was also the latest entrant in the aviation


market with his latest venture, Akasa airlines.
The airline took flight on August 7.

On the philanthropic side, Jhunjhunwala


contributes to St Jude, a shelter for cancer-
affected children.

He also contributes to Agastya International


Foundation and Arpan, an entity that helps
create awareness among children about
sexual exploitation.

He was building an eye hospital in Navi


Mumbai, which will perform 15,000 eye
surgeries free of cost.
