NEW DELHI: India’s tallest flag, which towers over the border with arch-rival Pakistan, is causing red faces - because it cannot stand up to the weather, reports foreign media. The tricolour was hoisted last month but keeps getting torn by the wind and is being replaced for a fourth time. It was launched with media fanfare but now officials say national pride is being dented and money wasted. The aim was for the flag to be seen from deep inside Pak territory. Indian press reports at the time said the 106 metre tall flag at the Wagah crossing would be visible from Lahore, 20 kilometre away. Officials have had to spend more money on replacements because by law a damaged flag cannot be flown.
