The Telangana government will unfurl the country’s tallest National Flag on the occasion of the state’s Formation Day on June 2.

Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao on Tuesday directed the state Chief Secretary to make arrangements for unfurling the flag at the Bathukamma Ghat of Hussain Sagar Lake, a release from his office said. 

Noting that there is a National Flag at Ranchi at a height of 293 feet, Rao said the flag here should be at a height of 301 feet.

The Chief Minister said the proposed flag would promote nationalism among the citizens.
