Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU) is the national-level trade union
affiliated with the Communist Party of India
(Marxist).
Its flag is red, charged with large hammer and sickle in
centre and the initials CITU inscribed vertically along the hoist, as specified
in Article 2 of the Constitution [1, 2]. The shape of hammer and sickle varies
greatly, and so does the typeface, as well as the shade which, typically for
Indian Communist flags, varies between R and R+ [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9].
