The word ‘half-saddle’ is a symbol for mourning, which is said to be unworthy of God
At present, for safety amid the stormy weather and strong winds, the flag is flown down on the flag pole instead of the flag pole. At such times some people call him ‘half-saddle’, but this term is not appropriate for God. ‘Half-saddle’ is symbolic of mourning. When this flag is hoisted down it is a plea to God, that we cannot go up in such an environment so that your flag is hoisted down. In which the two flags that were raised during the day were hoisted down yesterday. Which has been hoisted not on the flag pole but on the flag pole. So that God hears our plea that such a calamity is coming from which the spirit of the people to be saved is attached to these two flags.
