Rules for Flag Hoisting in India on Republic Day
"A
flag is a necessity for all nations. Millions have died for it. It is
no doubt a kind of idolatry which would be a sin to destroy. For, a flag
represents an Ideal The unfurling of the Union Jack evokes in the
English breast sentiments whose strength it is difficult to measure. The
Stars and Stripes mean a world to the Americans. The Star and the
Crescent will call forth the best bravery in Islam."
"It
will be necessary for us Indians Muslims, Christians Jews, Parsis, and
all others to whom India is their home-to recognize a common flag to
live and to die for." - Mahatma Gandhi
The Indian Flag is a national symbol and it is respected by every citizen of India.
There are certain points to remember while hoisting the Indian Flag.
The Indian Flag should be hoisted with the saffron color on the top.
There should be no flag or emblem either above the National Flag or on its right.
If there are multiple flags to be hoisted, they must be placed to the left of the Indian Flag.
During the hoisting of the National Flag, all present must stand to give respect and honour its glory.
The
flag cannot be intentionally allowed to touch the ground or the floor
or trail in water. It cannot be draped over the hood, top, and sides or
back of vehicles, trains, boats or aircraft.
The flag cannot be used for communal gains, drapery, or clothes.
The National Flag should be flown from sunrise to sunset, irrespective of the weather. It must be taken out before sunset.
Republic Day Parade
The main celebrations of Republic Day are held in the form of a colorful parade near India Gate in Delhi. The parade showcasing India's
military might and cultural diversity covers a 8 km route, starting
from the Rashtrapati Bhavan through the picturesque Rajpath down to
India Gate before winding up at the historic Red Fort in Old Delhi.
The
events of the day begin with the Prime Minister laying a wreath at the
Amar Jawan Jyoti - India Gate. He then drives up to the central
enclosure and awaits the arrival of the President and a Chief Guest of
the occasion who is normally a Head of other Country.
On
his arrival the Hon’ble President meets the dignitaries present and
unfurls the National Flag. Following this the National Anthem is played
with a 21-gun salute to the National Flag. After this a brief
investiture ceremony takes place during which the President presents
India's top gallantry awards, the Param Veer Chakra, the Veer Chakra and
the Maha Veer Chakra to the outstanding soldiers from the defense
services.
After this, four helicopters from the armed
forces fly past the parade area showering rose petals on the audience.
Each chopper carries a flag - the first being the Indian flag and the
other three the flags of the Army, the Navy, and the Indian Air Force.
The
march past begins immediately after the fly past. The President, as
Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, takes the salute of the mechanized, mounted and marching contingents of the Army, Air Force,
Navy, Paramilitary forces, Police and the National Cadet Corps.
After
the march past comes the cultural extravaganza consisting of floats
presented by the various states and performances by school children.
After the floats, the bravery awards winning children from all over the
country enter on elephants.
A spectacular fly-past by
Air Force and Naval aircraft rounds off this not-to-be missed
experience. The parade is followed by a pageant of spectacular displays
from the different states of the country. These moving exhibits depict
scenes of activities of people in those states and the music and songs
of that particular state accompany each display. Each display brings out
the diversity and richness of the culture of India and the whole show
lends a festive air to the occasion.
No other country
in the world can parade so many ethnically different people in splendid
uniforms as India's Armed Forces. But they are all united in their
proven loyalty to the Government elected by the people and in their
proud traditions and legendary gallantry.
