![[Flag of Assam United Democratic Front]](../images/i/in}audf.gif)
image by Tomislav Todorovic, 17 June 2009 Assam United Democratic Front (Assamese: Asom Sanyukta Ganatantric Marcha) is
a political party which operates in the state of Assam. Its orientation, as
defined in its Constitution:
www.udf.in/constitution.htm is regionalist and pro-Indian. The Constitution
also describes the party flag:
Article-VIII : FLAG :
The Flag of the
the "ASSAM UNITED DEMOCRATIC FRONT" shall consist of 3 (Three) horizontal
Colours; Green (Upper); white (middle); and Black (bottom).
Black signifies
deprivation and oppression; white signifies rescue from deprivation and
salvation; and green signifies peace and progress.
Size:
Length : Not
less than 75 cm
Breadth : Not less than 50 cm
Length : Breadth= 3 : 2
The flag, as shown here:
www.udf.in/gallery_files/Photos/69_edited.jpg and here:
www.udf.in/gallery_files/Photos/88_edited.jpg is also charged with the black
inscription U.D.F in centre of white field. Although the official party name
abbreviation, according to the Constitution, is AUDF, this one, according to the
photos from the site, is much more used, so the party obviously shortens its
name to United Democratic Front in everyday use.

To update of a contribution above, about the flag of the Assam United
Democratic Front, a political party in India, because the party now uses the
name of All India United Democratic Front and has also revised its flag:
All India United Democratic Front (Assamese: Sarbha Bharatiya Sanyukta
Ganatantric Marcha) is the new name of Assam United Democratic Front. The name
change was made after the Indian general election in 2009, which the party ran
under the original name, not only in Assam, but in West Bengal as well [1, 2,
3]. The main change in the party Constitution [4] was the new party name, and
Article VIII, which describes the party flag, was left unchanged. The party
website, however, shows a green-white-black horizontal tricolour, as described
in the Constitution, but with the addition of lock and key, the party election
symbol, drawn in black in centre of the white field [5]. The symbol was allotted
to the party on 2006-08-23 [6]. The latest official document showing the link
between the symbol and old party name was issued on 2009-03-14 [7] and the new
party name was officially linked with the symbol for the first time on
2009-09-14[8]; these two dates are delimiting the interval during which the name
change must have been made.

The described flag is shown above. The image
is partly based (lock and key symbol) on the drawing of the lock and key
symbol which was issued by the Election Commission of India in 2004 [9], with
the corrections shown on the party website [5].
