Utilizing the major solar flare data for the period 1955-79, a comprehensive analysis of these flares is presented. Based on this analysis it is found that the major solar flare activity was highest in the latitude interval 10-20 deg N. The longitudinal distribution is found to be approximately the same in both the east and west hemispheres and this distribution can be approximated by a Gaussian curve. The flare frequency is linearly proportional to sun-spot number. Moreover with increasing Comprehensive Flare Index (CFI), the flare frequency first increases, and then after a certain value it decreases almost exponentially to small value for highest CFI.
