MUMBAI: Off the Western Express Highway, past monsoon puddles, at Naigaon East sits a massive compound. On entering the compound gate, you find a huge Tricolour flying above a high pole. The glass door nearby leads to the factory where dozens of workers are busy creating our Tiranga of various sizes.
From procuring fabric to painting, colouring, ironing, cutting and packing, the flag-making company's 55,000 sq ft factory is working overtime to meet the huge demand. "Never before in my life have I seen such a great demand for the Tricolour. It is difficult to meet the demand since we cannot compromise on quality," says the company's founder-owner 74-year-old Amarjjit Singh Nagi.
