What appears on the flag?
The party's August 22, 2026 anniversary post, embedded on its website, describes dark-red, yellow and dark-red bands, two elephants, a vaagai flower and 28 stars. It dates the flag's introduction to two years earlier. These are the party's own descriptions of its design. This guide does not assign an unverified meaning to every colour or star, and does not present an unofficial illustration as approved artwork.
A flag is not the same as an election symbol
A flag identifies a party in public communication. The symbol shown on a ballot is a separate election record. Readers should check the relevant election authority's candidate and symbol information for the specific contest, rather than infer the ballot symbol from a flag photograph. A rally image can show which flag was displayed; it cannot alone establish candidate recognition, a nomination decision or the terms of an alliance.
Where to verify images and claims
For the design, compare an image against the party's published material and retain its date and source. For political history, use the dated timeline. For current policy or government performance, use documents and reported outcomes rather than visual branding. TVK Tracker does not offer an official flag download or grant permission to reproduce party artwork. Any corrections to this guide should identify the specific statement and a stronger source.
Key takeaways
- Design details here are attributed to the party's published description.
- Use election records, not flag imagery, to verify a ballot symbol.
