This is the change in the flag

 

After the independence of the country, the Indian Army continued to use the British colonial flag and badge. On 26 January 1950, the pattern of the flag was changed to Indianized only. The Union Jack was replaced by the tricolor in the flag. George Cross was left outright. Now this has been changed. The new naval flag unveiled by the Prime Minister has replaced the St George's Cross with the national flag tricolor in the upper left corner of the flag. In its place the Naval Crest has been placed in the center on the right.

 

The old sign depicting the colonial past

 

The George Cross in the old flag of the Navy reflects the colonial past, inspired by the concept of the pre-independence flag of the Indian Navy. The old flag had a red George's Cross on a white base with the United Kingdom's Union Jack at the top left corner, which has now been replaced. Let us tell that after the independence of the country, the Indian Army continued to use the British colonial flag and badge. On 26 January 1950, the pattern of the flag was changed to Indianized only.
