Urvashi Rautela’s tricolour gown at the Miss Universe India 2026 finale in Jaipur has sparked discussion over India’s National Flag rules. Rautela, who was a jury member at the event, wore a gown featuring saffron, white and green, along with an Ashoka Chakra motif. The outfit drew comments from people who accused her of disrespecting the National Flag. India’s Prevention of Insults to National Honour Act, 1971, bars the National Flag from being used as clothing below the waist and from being intentionally allowed to touch the ground. The incident has brought attention to the rules governing the use of the Indian National Flag.
