Har ghar Tiranga
The Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav is sponsoring the "Har Ghar Tiranga" campaign, which aims to get people to bring the Tiranga home and hoist it to commemorate India's 75th anniversary of independence. We've always had a more official, institutionalised relationship with the flag than a personal one. Bringing the flag home as a nation in our 75th year of independence symbolises both our dedication to establishing a better country and our act of personal connection to the Tiranga. Invoking a sense of patriotism in people's hearts and raising awareness of the Indian National Flag are the goals of the programme.
