The document discusses the history and protocols for India's national flag. It describes the original flag code established by the government that prohibited private use of the flag except on national holidays. In 2002 and 2005, the Supreme Court and Union Cabinet amended the code to allow limited private use, including on some clothing. The code also governs proper flag disposal and protocols for flying the flag alongside other national and non-national flags. Additionally, the document outlines the historical evolution of India's flag through 6 iterations from 1906 to 1947, when the modern flag featuring the Ashoka Chakra was adopted on India's independence in 1947.

3. Cont.
• The original code prohibited use of the flag by private
citizens except on national days such as the
Independence day and the Republic Day. In 2002, on
hearing an appeal from a private citizen, Naveen Jindal,
the Supreme Court of India directed the Government
of India to amend the code to allow flag usage by
private citizens. Subsequently, the Union Cabinet of
India amended the code to allow limited usage. The
code was amended once more in 2005 to allow some
additional use including adaptations on certain forms
of clothing. The flag code also governs the protocol of
flying the flag and its use in conjunction with other
national and non-national flags.

4. Cont.
• The original flag code also forbade use of the flag on
uniforms, costumes and other clothing. In July 2005,
the Government of India amended the code to allow
some forms of usage. The amended code forbids usage
in clothing below the waist and on undergarments,
and forbids embroidering onto pillowcases,
handkerchiefs or other dress material.[38]
• Disposal of damaged flags is also covered by the flag
code. Damaged or soiled flags may not be cast aside or
disrespectfully destroyed; they have to be destroyed
as a whole in private, preferably by burning or by any
other method consistent with the dignity of the
flag.[1]
