On the occasion of our Telangana State formation day (29th new state of
India), I got an opportunity to make the biggest Indian national flag with the
dimensions of 72 feet x 108 feet. Flag weight 63 KGs. Flag pole height 295 feet.
The flag unfurled on 2nd June, 2016 at Sanjeevaiah Park, Hyderabad, Telangana
state. Being vexillologists this is indeed a great honor and a happy moment.
Hence, I’m attaching a few pictures and videos of the flag which is hoisted in
Hyderabad.
It would be a privilege to share this information with all the
vexillologists across the globe.

The Telangana state
government will be spending nearly R2 crore (20 million) to set up India's
largest national flag on the tallest mast at Sanjeevaiah Park alongside the
Hussainsagar. Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao will unveil the flag on June
2, second anniversary of the state's formation. The government has sanctioned
R1.96 crore for the project. The R1.32 crore contract to instal the flag has
been awarded to the Kolkata-based Skipper Construction Company. The rest of the
money will be spent on civil works.
For now, the 66-feet by 99-feet flag
which stands on a 293-feet mast at Ranchi holds the record.
The CM has
directed officials to set up a taller pole than the one at Ranchi, at 303 feet.
The number (3+3) adds to Mr Rao's lucky number six.
The responsibility
of supervising the works has been entrusted to the roads and buildings
department.
R&B principal secretary Sunil Sharma said. "There are four
components in this project. The major work is construction of the 303-feet mast,
and the other components include construction of the pillar base and other civil
works. We are aiming to complete the project in two weeks."

T Formation Day to witness largest Tiranga Jhanda
Adepu Mahender
Khammam: This June 2 will be a special day not just because that it is the
second anniversary of the Telangana State Formation Day, but the day is set to
witness unfurling of the largest national flag ever hoisted on the Indian soil.
A flag with dimensions of 72-feet-by-108-feet is being stitched by 53-year-old
Kambhampati Sanjeev Rao, a native of Khammam and an accounts officer in DRDA
Department, Nalgonda.
It may be mentioned here that the government has
plans to hoist a largest national flag at Sanjeevaiah Park in Hyderabad to mark
Formation Day celebrations. Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao is slated to
hoist the flag on June 2.
Impressed by Sanjeev Rao's passion for study
of flags for which he attended at least 11 international conferences in
countries like USA, UK, Germany, France, Japan, Argentina, etc., the Chief
Minister has gave him the opportunity to stitch the largest flag. The earlier
record of the flag size was 66-feet-by-99-feet hoisted at a height of 293-feet
on January 23 this year.
Rao, who himself is stitching the flag from May
21, said that he will be ready with the flag by May 29. Sanjeev Rao has claimed
that he is the only person to have 20 years experience in the field of flag
research.
He also shared a few details about the flag. The flag will be
unfurled only with the help of a motorised mechanism due to its gigantic size.
The flag which is made of polyester cloth could not withstand the atmospheric
pressure for more than two months.
The height of the flag mast is 301
feet and is manufactured in Kolkata. The flag mast is being ferried to Hyderabad
and is expected to reach by May 28.
Thanking the Chief Minister for
giving the opportunity, Sanjeev Rao also expressed gratitude to the Society for
Elimination of Rural Poverty (SERP) CEO Anita Ramachandran for encouraging him.
Meanwhile, the construction of flag mast at the Sanjeevaiah Park hit a roadblock
with the Airport Authority of India (AAI) raising objection over the height flag
mast as it was close to Begumpet Airport. However, it is learnt that State
government has been pursuing the matter with the Central government to get
permission.
