Ahead of India’s 70th Independence Day, the nation’s tallest tricolour was hoisted at the Wagah border. The majestic flag is 360-feet tall, 90-feet long and 60-feet broad. The flag was earlier removed as it was damaged due to the strong winds and it was planned to be hoisted on August 15.
In March, earlier this year, the India hoisted a 360-foot-tall tricolour at the Wagah border. The flag could be spotted from Lahore in Pakistan. An estimated Rs 3.50 crore was on the flag by Punjab government. However, days later, strong winds tore down the flag and the authorities decided to take it down.
It reappeared yesterday, a day before Pakistan hoisted its ‘tallest’ flag at the Wagah border.
