<P> Khadi or hand - spun cloth is the only material allowed to be used for the flag, and flying a flag made of any other material is punishable by law with imprisonment up to three years, besides a fine . Raw materials for khadi are restricted to cotton, silk and wool . There are two kinds of khadi used: The first is the khadi - bunting which makes up the body of the flag, and the second is the khadi - duck, which is a beige - coloured cloth that holds the flag to the pole . The khadi - duck is an unconventional type of weave that meshes three threads into a weave, compared to the two weaves used in conventional weaving . This type of weaving is extremely rare, and there are fewer than twenty weavers in India professing this skill . The guidelines also state that there should be exactly 150 threads per square centimetre, four threads per stitch, and one square foot should weigh exactly 205 grams (7.2 oz). </P> <P> The rules regarding the correct methods to display the flag state that when two flags are fully spread out horizontally on a wall behind a podium, their hoists should be towards each other with the saffron stripes uppermost . If the flag is displayed on a short flagpole, this should be mounted at an angle to the wall with the flag draped tastefully from it . If two national flags are displayed on crossed staffs, the hoists must be towards each other and the flags must be fully spread out . The flag should never be used as a cloth to cover tables, lecterns, podiums or buildings, or be draped from railings . Whenever the flag is displayed indoors in halls at public meetings or gatherings of any kind, it should always be on the right (observers' left), as this is the position of authority . So when the flag is displayed next to a speaker in the hall or other meeting place, it must be placed on the speaker's right hand . When it is displayed elsewhere in the hall, it should be to the right of the audience . The flag should be displayed completely spread out with the saffron stripe on top . If hung vertically on the wall behind the podium, the saffron stripe should be to the left of the onlookers facing the flag with the hoist cord at the top . </P> <P> The flag, when carried in a procession or parade or with another flag or flags, should be on the marching right or alone in the centre at the front . The flag may form a distinctive feature of the unveiling of a statue, monument, or plaque, but should never be used as the covering for the object . As a mark of respect to the flag, it should never be dipped to a person or thing, as opposed to regimental colours, organisational or institutional flags, which may be dipped as a mark of honour . During the ceremony of hoisting or lowering the flag, or when the flag is passing in a parade or in a review, all persons present should face the flag and stand at attention . Those present in uniform should render the appropriate salute . </P> <P> When the flag is in a moving column, persons present will stand at attention or salute as the flag passes them . A dignitary may take the salute without a head dress . The flag salutation should be followed by the playing of the national anthem . </P>
