A.

1975

B.

2002

C.

2014

D.

1950

Correct option is B

The correct answer is (B) 2002

Explanation:
The Indian Flag Code was revised and made effective on January 26, 2002.
Before this, the display of the national flag by private citizens was restricted.
The new Flag Code of India, 2002, allowed every Indian citizen to hoist the national flag on all days with respect to its dignity and honor.
Information Booster:
  • The Flag Code of India, 2002 replaced all previous laws and regulations regarding the display of the Indian flag.
  • It is divided into three parts:
    1. General description of the national flag
    2. Rules for display by public, private organizations, and educational institutions
    3. Rules for display by government and official bodies
  • The Har Ghar Tiranga campaign (2022) encouraged people to hoist the flag at home.
