Facts about the flag of India
Date adopted: 22 July 1947
Designer: Pingali Venkayya
Symbolism: The saffron color represents courage and sacrifice, the white color represents truth and peace, and the green color represents faith and chivalry. The Ashoka Chakra in the center symbolizes the eternal wheel of law.
- Pantone colours: Saffron, White, India Green, Navy Blue
- Aspect ratio: 2 : 3
- Hanging protocol: The flag is typically hung with the saffron (orange) band at the top, white in the middle, and green at the bottom, with the navy blue Ashoka Chakra centered in the white band.
- Design pitfall: A common mistake is displaying the flag with the green band on top or the Ashoka Chakra omitted or incorrectly colored.
