The Burj Khalifa

The Burj Khalifa is a 828-meter-tall (2,717 ft) skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It is the tallest building in the world, and the tallest man-made structure in the world.

The Burj Khalifa was designed by Adrian Smith of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, and was completed in 2010.

The Indian Flag

The Indian flag is a tricolour flag consisting of three horizontal stripes of saffron, white, and green.

The saffron stripe represents courage and sacrifice, the white stripe represents peace and purity, and the green stripe represents faith and prosperity.

The flag was adopted by the Indian National Congress in 1931, and it became the national flag of India after independence in 1947.

The Illumination

The illumination of the Burj Khalifa in the colours of the Indian flag was a gesture of friendship and solidarity between India and the United Arab Emirates.

The UAE is home to a large Indian community, and the illumination was a way to celebrate the contributions of Indians to the UAE.

The illumination was met with widespread praise on social media. Many people expressed their gratitude to the UAE for the gesture, and they said that it was a proud moment for India.
