		Favouring framing of a proper flag code, the Supreme Court today took serious exception to a petition singling out alleged 'dishonour" of the tricolour during Uma Bharti's "Tiranga yatra" and said it was strange none took note of its dishonour by a model and cricket fans.
		"The national flag code should be framed for honouring the flag and we would issue notices to all political parties particularly in the light of the Supreme Court's decision in Naveen Jindal's case upholdoing a citizen's right to flay the tricolour," the Bench said.
		The Bench then said it was strange that the public interest litigation lost sight of the alleged abuse of the national flag code by a model who recently wore the tricolour as a dress.
