I feel that Mr Jain is taking the spirit of Nationalism a bit too far. I have served for more than 16 years in the Submarine arm of the Indian Navy and at so many occasions we have cut cake underwater decorated with colors of National flag (or even resembling National flag). All this we have done while serving the nation in hostile territory with mortal danger to our lives. I guess dis-honoring a National emblem should be seen in the light of motive of doing such an act. Further, I feel there is no point in honoring the flag while ones actions (such as being corrupt, willfully damaging national property, desecrating national monuments, asking for dowry, showing religious intolerance etc) are more damaging to the nation. To my mind they show more dis-respect to the founding principles of this great Nation.
