    You are absolutely right. The national flag is a symbol only. What is important is love for the fellow man and service, tolerance, friendship etc. I , as a person who once witnessed the unfurling of the tri-coloured national flag 75 years ago, we were over joyous then. There were relatives, parents, school teachers , rich, poor , Hindus, Muslims and Christians etc. we were all patriots and all were equal . So you don’t have to display externally your emotions to indicate you are a patriot! Bye.

    Forget it, that camaraderie has been lost for these 8 years now. Faith is a very private thing, using it to get votes is disaster for the society.

    The true Indian is one who contributes to society in different forms, may be economically or politically or spiritually. Just by hoisting the flag in home I don't think we will be a true Indian. BJP everytime comes with innovative ideas which takes human lives.

    We DID NOT put a flag up at our home. That didn't make us less Indians. Our love for the nation continues, without any faigning.

    RIP bro!! The other day I saw a viral video of a young man who got charred to death when he came in contact with a live HT line while hoisting the national Flag; there would be definitely many more unreported cases from rural areas of such tragedies; all because many youths got so carried away with the hype that was created and tried to hoist the national Flag throwing caution to the winds! Now who will compensate for these type of innocent patriots??

    Life is more precious than Nation or Flag. For me my health, life and my family are at first place. If i am able to keep these well, indirectly I am keeping my nation well. I did not hoist any flag yesterday, but love towards my nation, state, district, language are at my heart.

    Har Ghar Tiranga Campaign......Is a welcome matter to create a better interface between the fag and love for nation. Observe the manner in which people and institutions put up flags wit wide enthusiasm. Perhaps as years go by and the high status of the flag and due respect to it filters down better it will give a better insight and perception to denizens all over India. While handling the India National Flag some understanding of the correctness is essential. Selecting a proper place to fly the flag requires thought. Too high a place and hidden by trees or walls, the angle to place the flag, the fitting of the flag (avoiding sewage pipes, lamp posts etc) is vital. Hope that more care will come about in future.

    Due to flag hoisting call by Modi lot of people died either by electrocuting or falling. People need to be very careful. Just by flag hoisting you cannot be called desh bhakth. Show your desh bhakthi by doing good deeds to your fellow Indian. Be human first. Fake nationalism is gift of BJP. Gandhiji didnot wanted this kind of fake nationalism. These politicians need to be non corrupt, build good roads and serve the people without looking at caste/creed/religion then only you will be called desh bhakths. Now you all are deshdrohis as you are acting against our constitution.

    In my student days I had joined NCC which inculcated the way of nationalism, patriotism and resepcting the symbols of them like fĺag. But sad to see these sacred symbols are misused by some politicians for their selfish aggrandizement. I see in some homes uneven torn flags still hanging today also which is a punishable offence according to the flag law. Hope this won't continue any more which is disrespectful act due to ignorance but created by selfish politicians who doesn't respect their motherland.
