Manjunath, Shri. Abhilash of HJS and advocate Padmanabh Holla were present on the occasion.

After the programs on Independence Day, children throw plastic and paper national flags on roads or in dust-bins. It is difficult to destroy plastic national flags; therefore, it leads to their abuse. Under clause 51 (A) of Indian Constitution, it is the main duty of every citizen and Government to maintain honour of national flags. Improper use of national flags and its insult is a cognizable offence as per Indian Constitution.

The Government should take firm decisions for prevention of abuse of national flags. Demand was made for imposition of total ban on use of plastic national flags on occasions like Independence Day, Republic Day, annual functions in schools and colleges etc.
