I have seen our flag lying on the road after a day's celebration. I mean I guess somethings need to be expressed as rules for people to understand!Anuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07871617136335902135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19829005.post-2418333989238016592007-08-17T15:35:00.000+05:302007-08-17T15:35:00.000+05:30@all point taken..but..i have always looked for lo...@all point taken..but..i have always looked for loopholes like alistair said ;) and will continue to...Me Thinks..https://www.blogger.com/profile/05829743480722512849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19829005.post-51947718795108004362007-08-16T22:30:00.000+05:302007-08-16T22:30:00.000+05:30not seen the movie yet.... went on a bike ride on ...not seen the movie yet.... went on a bike ride on wed.... had to get out of the city :-)<BR/><BR/>the problem with rules is that people always want other to follow the rule verbatim and not the spirit of the rule... but then again there are those would look for loopholes to personal stuff...Alistair D'souzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02144549337028962752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19829005.post-66948134943587129002007-08-16T14:57:00.000+05:302007-08-16T14:57:00.000+05:30rules led to more rules. this is one such rule. it...rules led to more rules. this is one such rule. it led to others. they decided to stop the flag from being hoisted after sunset...soudns flimsy...there are people who will turn around and ask-my flag, my country,m why cant i wear it. mandira bedi did this, remember? one thing leads to another. perhaps, thats y so many rules.<BR/>i am sure the authority doesnt realise it either.Reehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03846599815034251907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19829005.post-38059717294616232562007-08-16T14:26:00.000+05:302007-08-16T14:26:00.000+05:30u do have it in u cant say much but the blog recal...u do have it in u cant say much but the blog recalled me somethin remember JAI HIND ????bhavna2716https://www.blogger.com/profile/16706514396300879740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19829005.post-27798314986150464642007-08-16T13:36:00.000+05:302007-08-16T13:36:00.000+05:30There's freedom and then there's freedom.

I agree it is protocol to not have the flag hoisted after dark...but its about respect...why do we wait for our fathers to finish speaking and not interrupt them before speaking in a discussion...just respect. And to not have the flag hoisted after dark is respect to the flag. Letting it stay up where everyone is dead to the world is disrespect to it. <BR/><BR/>Thats all. I understand ur sentiments about it being a way of expressing your feelings of patriotism but I think even those are secondary when it comes to honouring this protocol.Pavitrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02952326373520119483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19829005.post-50090016715760681132007-08-16T13:25:00.000+05:302007-08-16T13:25:00.000+05:30I know its democracy and you can do whatever you w...I know its democracy and you can do whatever you want. <BR/>But in democracy you need to follow some rules. <BR/>And if you saw yesterday's debate on cnn then you can make out the difference between democracy and dictatorship.Cosmoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07485368220316669793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19829005.post-59695282107909027102007-08-15T23:44:00.000+05:302007-08-15T23:44:00.000+05:30Madam, you are quite correct in expressing what yo...Madam, you are quite correct in expressing what you did.
