Patriotism only skin deep

I am sure many of our citizens might have celebrated the freedom (with all the limitation what so ever it has) with pride and buzzing patriotism. And it is no wonder that the plastic/paper flags (mostly made in China!) of India are selling like hot cakes in the season. But as usual with our use and throw attitude (a criminal carelessness i guess) most of us might have dumped it in nearby bins or as usual thrown it as litter on road sides.

As per the code for national flag it is criminal to dump our flag, which of course represent our billion+ Indians, the sacrifice of our brothers and sisterns in uniform and otherwise and the centuries worth of pain and hardships our freedom fighters endured. It represents the Kubers and poors, the well to do and the helpless (majority) alike. It also represents our future. so any one carelessly handling the flag is actually unknowingly disrespecting ourselves.

The point i am writing is that i saw a few students dressed up with tricolor caps collecting the littered flags to be taken care of in a legitimate manner. But first of all why should one throw the flag in such careless manner. if one is so careless, why to use the flag at first, will the patriotism be any less without the flag.

So next time think about it before waving the flag that it doesnt end up in a garbage bin or under someones foot.

Since the fervor is not going to come down govt should make it mandatory that the flags are collected in a much better way after use in proper collection baskets. or better alternatives could be applied.
