Correct answer
Explanation
Naveen Jindal, an industrialist and MP, filed a PIL in 2002 that led to significant changes in the Indian Flag Code. The Supreme Court's decision allowed private citizens to display the national flag with dignity and respect. Before this, the Flag Code of India restricted flag display primarily to government institutions and officials. Jindal's efforts democratized flag display rights.
