Tajikistan celebrates National Flag Day with a 165-meter-high mast

Since November 24, 2009, Tajikistan celebrates the National Flag Day. Tajik President Emomali Rahman proposed to his country's parliament to amend the law on holidays and celebrations in Tajikistan, which was approved by Parliament, and chose November 24 as a national holiday. This was followed by the establishment of the longest flag in the world, which was erected in 2011 near the nation's presidential palace, Mellat Palace, on a mast with a height of 165 meters, and the width of the flag is 60 meters and its length is 30 meters. Today, on this occasion, marches and ceremonial meetings took place in the capital and other Tajik cities and countryside, and President Emomali Rahmon addressed a televised address to the masses of people, congratulating everyone on this holiday, saying: Our national flag has a rich and varied history of thousands of years. History shows that the Aryan peoples were among the first to invent the tradition of raising the flag, and today the Tajik people are celebrating the twenty-second anniversary of the flag of Tajikistan as a symbol of dignity and honor, as historical evidence proves that the flag was one of the symbols of the Tajik state since the oldest days, and even for the first time In history, they made science a ritual of state administration four thousand years ago. The flag was returned to the rituals of the modern Tajik state after gaining national independence, and since 2009 it has been celebrated in Tajikistan. It should be noted that the administrative and cultural buildings in the center of Dushanbe, including the Palace of the Nation, the National Library, the memorial to Kolak Ismail Samlni, the Park in the name of Professor Rudaki (Bag Ustad Rudaki), the National Museum of Tajikistan, the building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the garden Al-Alam, which has a large lake and wonderful nature, adorns the city center and becomes a place for recreation for the citizens and guests of the capital. As one of the Tajik students told the INA reporter that our respect for the flag is similar to our respect for the emblem and the national peace is respect for the state and its sovereignty, and these three symbols are among the most cherished sanctities that should be preserved. Today, flags flutter in the squares and streets to make hearts feel patriotism and pride in citizenship. Afshin is a resident
