News Mania Desk/Agnibeena Ghosh/9th August 2024
As India prepares to celebrate its 77th Independence Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called on the nation to actively participate in the “Har Ghar Tiranga” campaign, urging citizens to make it a significant mass movement. In a symbolic act, PM Modi changed his profile picture on the social media platform X to the Indian national flag, encouraging others to follow suit.
The Prime Minister’s message is clear: this year’s Independence Day should be marked by a widespread display of the Tricolour, fostering a sense of unity and patriotism across the country. “As this year’s Independence Day approaches, let’s again make Har Ghar Tiranga a memorable mass movement,” PM Modi stated in a post on X. He added, “I am changing my profile picture and I urge you all to join me in celebrating our Tricolour by doing the same. And yes, do share your selfies on harghartiranga.com.”
This initiative is part of the broader ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’ celebrations, which were launched in 2021 to commemorate 75 years of India’s independence. The ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign specifically aims to encourage citizens to bring the national flag into their homes and proudly display it. By doing so, the campaign seeks to instill a deep sense of patriotism and raise awareness about the significance of the Indian National Flag.
During the 112th episode of his monthly radio address, ‘Mann Ki Baat,’ on July 28, PM Modi highlighted the growing trend of people taking selfies with the national flag and sharing them on social media. He emphasized the importance of this movement and called on party leaders and workers to ensure that the Tricolour is hoisted on homes, offices, and shops across the nation.
The Prime Minister’s call to action is not just about displaying the flag but about celebrating the spirit of independence and the values it represents. The ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign is a way for every citizen to connect with the national identity and contribute to a collective sense of pride and unity.
The Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav initiative is a significant government effort to honor India’s rich history, diverse culture, and remarkable achievements over the past 75 years. It recognizes the pivotal role that the people of India have played in shaping the nation’s journey and emphasizes the potential to realize PM Modi’s vision of “India 2.0,” driven by the spirit of Aatmanirbhar Bharat, or self-reliant India.
As Independence Day draws near, PM Modi’s appeal is likely to resonate with millions of Indians, inspiring them to participate in the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign. By changing their profile pictures and hoisting the flag, citizens can contribute to making this Independence Day a truly memorable and unifying experience. The Prime Minister’s message is a reminder of the importance of national pride and the role each individual can play in strengthening the fabric of the nation.
