Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav, the government’s campaign to mark the 75th anniversary of India’s Independence, is turning into a mass movement, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Sunday, in his monthly radio broadcast, Mann Ki Baat.
During the 91st edition of the address, the PM urged people to hoist the national flag in each home as part of the “Har Ghar Tiranga” initiative under which the government aims to cover over 200 million households between August 13 and 15. He also urged people to put the “tiranga” (India’s national flag) as the profile picture of their social media accounts between August 2 and 15.
“Let us further this movement by hoisting the National Flag at our homes,” he said.
