On the birth anniversary of Pingali Venkayya, Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid heartfelt tributes to the man celebrated for designing the Indian national flag. Venkayya’s contributions to India’s identity were highlighted by Modi in a poignant message shared on the social media platform X.
“Remembering Pingali Venkayya Ji on his birth anniversary. His effort in giving us the Tricolour will always be remembered,” Modi tweeted. The Prime Minister’s tribute was accompanied by a call to action for the public to participate in the Har Ghar Tiranga movement, an initiative aimed at celebrating the national flag and fostering a sense of national unity.
The Har Ghar Tiranga campaign, running from August 9 to 15, invites all Indian citizens to display the national flag prominently at their homes. The Prime Minister emphasized the significance of this gesture in his post, urging people to not only unfurl the Tricolour but also to capture and share their moments of patriotism by posting selfies on the campaign’s dedicated website, harghartiranga.com.
The campaign is designed to engage the entire nation in a collective celebration of India’s Independence Day. By showcasing the flag and sharing their photos, citizens are encouraged to express their pride and solidarity with the nation. This effort is intended to deepen public connection to the national symbols and reinforce the values of unity and freedom.
The Har Ghar Tiranga initiative aligns with India’s broader celebrations of Independence Day, offering an opportunity for citizens to actively participate in national pride and cultural heritage.
