Stating this here on Thursday, an official spokesman said that in a letter written by the Ministry of Home Affairs to the Chief Secretaries of all the State Governments, Administrators of all Union Territories and the Secretaries of all the Ministries and Departments of the Central Government, it has been stated that the National Flag represents the hopes and aspirations of the people of India. Therefore it should occupy a position of honour.
There is a universal affection and respect for, and loyalty to, the National flag.
