DUBAI: The iconic Burj Khalifa here was lit up with the colours of the Indian flag tonight. Earlier, the tricolour was not displayed on the day of the Indian Independence day following a technical snag.
Pakistan’s flag was also not displayed on Burj Khalifa on August 14-Pak Independence day. The flags of the neighbours were displayed back to back on the world’s tallest building with Pak’s flag displayed at 8:42 pm and the Indian flag at 8:44 pm.
Indians and Pakistanis watched this beautiful sight standing side by side. Burj Khalifa displays flags of all countries on their independence days which follows with a laser show.
