“Today, under the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign, I hoisted the Tricolour at my residence. The ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign, initiated under the leadership of Modi ji, has today become a people’s movement that binds the nation in the thread of unity and strengthens the spirit of patriotism,” he said in a post on X.
“This campaign demonstrates that the 140 crore citizens of the country are determined to develop and make the best of the free India that countless freedom fighters realised through their sacrifice, penance, and dedication,” the minister added.
Over the past three years, the campaign has transformed into a mass movement, with citizens from diverse walks of life participating enthusiastically in both online and offline activities across the country.
The initiative invites every Indian to proudly bring the Tricolour home and hoist it in celebration of the nation’s independence.
Union Culture Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat on Monday urged people to join the fourth edition of the campaign with full enthusiasm, stressing the need to always uphold the “respect and sanctity” of the national flag.
For this year’s edition, more than five lakh young people have registered as volunteers to inspire citizens to participate in the nationwide celebration.
Several events are being organised across the nation as part of the campaign.
