Indian Flag

It was a Sunday of August the 15th. It was the 64th Independence day of India. Since it fell on Sunday this time, we the people had enough leisure time to show our patriotism. Tri-color Indian flag was all over the place. The tri colors, saffron, while and green was on my face all through the day. Thats when I realized that India is secular state but how non secular the Indian flag is.



Dictionary definition of secular says:
of or relating to the doctrine that rejects religion and religious considerations

If India as a nation is formed with rejecting religion and religious consideration, can it be any more inappropriate to choose a flag based on religious symbol. If the flag was proposed with green color on top and saffron at bottom, I seriously doubt it would have made it as a national flag!!!

So for India to walk to the talk, it should either change the flag or stop claiming we are secular state. Second one is easy because we have to remove the false image and admit the reality.
