        code? Sorry, we don’t knowHisar, January 23
 The hoisting of the National Flag in educational institutions on
        Republic Day and Independence Day is proving counterproductive. With the
        exception of Sainik and Army schools, most of the other schools and
        colleges continue to violate the model set of instructions prescribed in
        the National Flag Code for such institutions.
