Former Member of Parliament and industrialist Naveen Jindal on Monday unfurled the national flag mounted on a 100-feet tall pole in Ballabgarh town in Haryana’s Faridabad district. Jindal, CMD of Jindal Steel and Power, inaugurated a new warehouse on Monday set up by JSPl in Ballabgarh and unfurled the Tricolour in its premises.
Jindal, who conceived the idea of monumental flagpoles, said, “Every Indian must take great pride in Tiranga (tri-colour). We have taken it up as a mission to popularise the display of the tricolour by more and more Indians.” The concept of monumental flagpoles was introduced by the founder of the Flag Foundation, Naveen Jindal, in 2009. The first monumental flagpole measuring 207 feet was installed by the Foundation in Kurukshetra parliamentary constituency.
