Triangular Flag

Triangular Flag


Flag is a piece of cloth or similar material, attachable by one edge to a pole or rope and used as the symbol or emblem of a country or institution or as a decoration during public festivities. Nepal has got a triangular flag with unique identity and meaning in the whole world. The entire history of Nepal can be seen through the flag. The question regarding changing the flag has been hitting in youth’s mind since last few months. It’s little amazing to find why the leaders want to do all these crazy stuffs instead of getting devoted towards their main task.
Can the leaders of today erase the history that Prithivi Narayan Shah united the country by broking down the statute of Prithivi Narayan Shah? If they really can erase the history they have full freedom to change the flag, but if they can not they must respect the flag of the country. These fellows don’t respect the national dress, I wonder if they really care about national animal, bird. Do they know what our national color is? The flag carries the historical memories plus is set within the mind of every single people. It was okay for the national anthem to be changed, but has any one even figured about the difficulties that is there to get set in every individual’s mind? More than fifty percent people today don’t know national song. After changing the flag, can the leaders guarantee that the devotion, patriotism and respect that the citizens have for the flag of today will be remained tomorrow as well? I don’t think the respect exists. Today what is the symbol of unity? We lack king, it’s the flag for which the country is united. We are unknown about the national map too, the encroachment issue must have changed the size and area of our country as well.
The sick leaders are getting sick and they don’t even know what they are doing. All they are after is for their greed. Their selfish nature has been killing the patriotism and has been destroying the image of themselves. It’s the duty of we youths to save our national identity and symbol for peace. Flag should always be kept above the leader’s power. Few days back, I was in a mass where a guy claimed that flag that we are respecting at present does not belong to Nepal but belongs to the king! How can a flag belong to king? Is this truly possible? If yes how? Still today many of us are unknown about the full lyrics of National anthem, at such time how can we make the new flag immortal killing the present flag? So it’s our duty to save the sovereignty by saving the flag! Let’s warn leaders that they do not have right to play with our flag.
