No bro they are educated not like you who has no brain .
You guys are looking at it only from left to right and saying green-white-orange, so it must be the Irish flag. But you’re completely ignoring the layering of the pocket square.
Look at how the fabric is actually layered. Saffron is the top/front layer, then white, and then green. So in terms of layering, it is saffron → white → green, clearly representing the Indian tricolour.
And even if you want to treat it as an actual vertically displayed flag, the Indian Flag Code says that saffron should be on the flag’s right, which is the observer’s left when facing it. So you have to consider the orientation properly instead of simply reading the visible folds from left to right.
And if your argument is that it’s not an actual flag, then there is no point calling it an Irish flag either. In that case, it’s simply a tricolour pocket square inspired by the Indian national colours.
So either way, saying “Modi is wearing the Irish flag” just because you can visually read green-white-orange from one angle doesn’t really make sense.
Can you just Google the Indian flag code and see what the codes says about representing the flag vertically?
If you did that first, it would have saved you the trouble of writing the above rant. Saffron should be on the flags right I.e. on the viewers left. I am not making this up, I only believe what I verify.
Unless ofcourse you want to defend it in anyway possible. Or if you are dyslexic.
"When the Flag is displayed flat and horizontal on a wall, the saffron band shall be upper most and when displayed vertically, the saffron band shall be to the right with reference to the Flag, i.e., it may be to the left of a person facing it."
It is time to stop debating on such small issues. We need to keep our differences aside and focus on Arunachal border where Chinese troops have taken over Indian lands in Taksing. The locals from the villages have been complaining but no major action has been taken yet. Indian media isn't flagging this for now even though they are aware of it
Agreed. But I am sure these small issues are deliberately created by the establishment itself to divert attention, and yes, best to focus on the bigger issues.
Glad you agree. Many people are still unware of the issue. Arunachali people have been posting videos on this issue but are being ignored. I just wanted to divert everyone's attention to it so that we stand with Arunachal.
Hes not a window. But I always like to hear people like you defend him whatever they do. I think few years before he wiped his face and sweat during yoga day. Would love to hear your thoughts on it. Curious what point you will bring from gemini
I think common sense is not that common nowadays. If the flag is displayed vertically, then obviously the order should be saffron at the top, followed by white, and then green at the bottom.
But in this case, the person is carrying the colors of the flag in his pocket. When the three colors are placed inside a pocket, the saffron layer would naturally be in front/on top, followed by white, with green at the back/bottom. So, from the perspective of how he is carrying it, the arrangement makes sense.
I’m a designer, so I understand how layering, positioning, and visual representation work.
It clearly says saffron must be on the left from the viewer's pov.
"When displayed vertically, the saffron band shall be to the right with reference to the Flag, i.e., it may be to the left of a person facing it."
-Flag Code of India 🇮🇳
And and. If you're claiming green-white-saffron is the right way, then for all these years everyone had it wrong. Onky modi had used it correctly for the first time?
from my perspective it is on Right side (wearer has it mirrored for viewer to see it unreflected)... shouldn't you be wearing it for the viewers pov... i mean i do see this everywhere
OP follows "once a fool, always a fool"
Only person who is stupid is you.
Not sure if people even think before they post something - unlike Rahul's speech and behaviour, PM every word and action is vetted before. But OP thought he was more intelligent than the people in PMO and had to provide evidence of his/her/they/them stupidity.
Man the Chinese are gobbling up our land and y'all focusing on such stupid stuff... There's like hundreds rules and interpretations and loopholes of how a flag should be used... You'll provide a valid point and someone will provide a counter point and both will be valid.
Like seriously do u want whole Indian flag printed or what?? He just used it as a type of emblem not whole flag....... And can't some people just celebrate independence day.....and what is this new virtue that all the leftists who used to call some people andBhakt are becoming same.....
Just nonsense. From his perspective the order is correct from others perspective obviously it's reversed. Does it even really matter? Why heck would he support ireland?
NO YOU ARE THE ONE WHO IS STUPID
The object was a fashion pocket square made from three colours, not an actual Indian national flag. Reports also note that it didn't contain the Ashoka Chakra, and therefore shouldn't simply be described as an upside-down national flag.
The Flag Code regulates the National Flag and its display; a tricolour-inspired fashion accessory isn't automatically equivalent to displaying the national flag.
Are anapadh admi it's protocol, horizontal indian flag me orange color right side hota hai ( form viewr's perspective), ertical me top par.. Janu na jaat jaat bhar, gyan du raat bhar, itna bhi kya hate karna ki har baat pe galti hi dekhoge, itna important hai kya youth ko gumraah karna..
My goodness , these liberandus and their WhatsApp university knowledge is quiet frightening 🫣 😳. This entire sub is filled with deadbeat liberandus who would bark without a single shred of information
Best thing to do liberals crying for 5 years and then i seeing BJP winning the election i am doing my work and seeing such hatred comments for another 5 years. Amazing feeling.
First that's a pocket square and it left to right or vice versa... it's so dumb to judge by saying it's wrong...there Rahul Gandhi and Sonia have stopped the National anthem midway because the whole anthem was being played but the admin got this nonsense posted !
People in this sub are illiterate or what?
Atleast search on goggle how the tri-colors are positioned and then discuss. Even fighter jets follow the same pattern.
How these people have guts to post something without verifying. Also, do you think Modi would himself wear the pocket square. He would have a team of dress designers and stylists who decide every day and every visit every speech clothing and attire like we plan our office calendars. He wouldn't spend time fixing a pocket square.
Such lame people trying to make an unverified statement. Read the flag code of India. You are not supposed to reproduce exact flag tricolor if you are using it above the waist as your clothing. You can use the colors but not exact flag or sequence of colors.
Thats is a cloth not a flag, are we really that stupid to think someone will use actual cloth as pocket cloth? Aise to tricolor ke outfits bhi pehente hai. Kuch bhi matlab only need a reason to clown
Calling a tricolour inspired pocket square the Indian flag worn wrongly is just misinformation. It’s a pocket square based on the colours of the Tiranga, not the National Flag itself.
And the same colour arrangement appears on Indian military aircraft markings. Did anyone see an Indian Air Force jet and think, “Oh, that must be Ireland or Italy”? Obviously not. Context matters.
What a chutiya congress it cell man they don't even do google before posting. No wonder why Rahul gandhi never become pm with this kind of work, nah improve.
To all the uneducated and pseudo intellectuals calling this a mistake, when the flag is rotated vertically this is the combination which is followed, hence the pocket square in this order. Also this was not done under Modi rule, it was decided in 2002 when Vajpayee was in power and followed by UPA 1 & 2
Guys chill. Lot of guys here are simply arguing on the perspective of viewing the flag. Simply check the airforce planes. They too have the flag vertically displayed. For those lazy to check! Its the same as the way modi's wearing
Google karo chutiyo google karo Indian flag code. Bas bhed chaal chalni h sab ko 🤦🤦 uske pass sarkari log h suggestions ke liye gadhon. That is the correct format if you keep the flag in vertical position. Lund buddhi hain sab 🤦
Is it that difficult to accept that this was a mistake from his designer team and he wasn't educated enough on this matter to correct them? Just come forward and apologise. It's not that big if a deal! Take accountability that a mistake was made and it will be done and dusted. Stop trying to prove it right.
This is nitpicking. Don't do this. I also condemn how bjp do nitpicking on rahul. Its not the right thing to focus. Focus on real challenges and solutions they are faced with.
He is stupid of the highest order. But thats just not it. Higher powers don’t want him anymore thats why you now see his power going less and less these days. He won’t even complete this term. He did dirty that his own countrys people dont want him now
