New Delhi:
As India prepares to celebrate its 78th Independence Day on August 15, ‘Tiranga’ rallies are being taken out across the country under the Centre’s ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign. From Delhi to Srinagar, streets are illuminated with the Tricolour lightening.
The ‘Tiranga Yatra’ was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to instill a sense of nationalism by encouraging citizens to display the national flag at their homes. It was launched under the banner of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav in 2022.
The third edition of the campaign is being celebrated from August 9 to 15 this year to mark the 78th Independence Day.
This nationwide campaign has seen active participation from all states and union territories, along with key industry partners, including the Indian armed forces, Central Armed Police Forces, and the civil aviation sector.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah also participated in ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ rally in Ahmedabad on Tuesday. The yatra featured a 2,151-foot-long Tricolor carried by participants, including school teachers and personnel from various forces.
A festive spirit reigns in Kashmir ahead of Independence Day with several ‘Tiranga’ rallies being organised and tricolour fluttering proudly from key buildings.
One such rally was carried out by Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) on the road along the famous Dal Lake in Srinagar.
The CRPF on Wednesday took out ‘Har Ghar Tiranga Rally’ in Greater Noida to mark the Independence Day celebrations.
Personnel of the VIP security and protection wing based in the Central Reserve Police Force’s (CRPF) group centre in Greater Noida met locals, children, panchayat members and public representatives as part of the initiative, a senior officer of the paramilitary force said.
