Displaying the Indian flag at a time when Indian nationalism is creating some problems in the region may actually create some problems with your neighbors at the moment, I think.
I am of Indian origin, living in Texas. We have a multinational neighborhood too. I personally have never been offended by people flying flags no matter how hostile the country is to India or the US.
Having said that, the flag flying thing is a thing for Americans and not for Indians. The American flag is ubiquitous and so are state flags especially Texas. Perhaps because a young country like the US considers the flag to be part of their identity.
It’s not so in India. Depending on the part of the country, they have traditions going back a thousand years or so. On festive occasions people would hang a garland of mango leaves / flowers from above the door (much like mistletoe). If people have a front yard, they will plant a basil with an ornate container or raised platform.
Typically the flag is flown at many places on Independence Day and Republic day but other days you will find them only at military/civil servant offices.
Public places like police stations, airports, railway stations , hospitals etc usually don’t have a flag in India.
The closest analogy I can think is of Europe. It’s not like people don’t feel love for the EU flag, but in my visits to France, Poland and Germany - I’ve not seen people flying those flags from their porches.
I admire that. 
Interesting clarifications.
True, but they may display it on special occasions - I personally have never done that but I’ve seen the EU flag fluttering in home windows or car windows when people celebrate certain events. (I live in Europe.)
National flags are flied (or flown, I’m not sure in this case) more often than the EU flag, but not as much as in the USA. Except when there is a rising nationalism in the area, as we can see in… well, I would rather refrain myself from going into that.
I am yet to figure out how to quote a part of the post so @PlaceboTarget, there is rising Nationalism in India too but the Indian flag doesn’t fit their purposes 
It is commonly believed in India that the flag represents all three major religions in India : Saffron for Hinduism, White for Christianity and Green for Islam. There is a wheel in the center signifying Emperor Ashoka (250 BCE), during whose rule India was a country, as large (or larger) as the present day India. During other periods India had various Small kingdoms.
Needless to say the flag signifies tolerance and unity.
All right, I understand better now.
The Wikipedia article says that until 2002, private citizens were prohibited from flying the flag except on national holidays. That may be part of the reason why it’s not flown as widely as the American flag is flown in the US. (Also, there are really specific rules for how the cloth for the Indian flag is to be produced.)
Not EU, of course, but the Swiss sure love their flag.
Well, who wouldn’t? It’s a big plus.
They also use it to make the coolest passports.
Within the post you wish to quote, select the single contiguous portion of text you wish to quote. Then click the [Reply] button beneath that post. Done.
The other approach is to simply click the [Reply] button to that post, then click the voice balloon icon at the upper left of the edit window to import the entire post your’re quoting. Then edit out whatever you don’t want included in your quote.
The details will be slightly different if you’re on phone or using a different theme, but the above should give you the big picture…
@LSLGuy - thank you. Turns out it is easier than before.
If you haven’t seen it, read this tutorial thread in ATMB.
It’s kinda baffling (just a wall of details) if you read it before you’ve used the board for a couple days, but real quickly it’s all pretty easy to use once you figure out where they hid the thing to click.
Would I wear a Blaze Orange shirt with Bright Green pants?
Nope.
Probably wouldn’t fly an Orange ‘n’ Green flag, either.
(Oh, I forgot the wide white vinyl belt with a blue buckle…)
