Har Ghar Tirange "Popular Across India": PM On Eve Of Independence Day

The three-year-old "Har Ghar Tiranga" campaign is continuing this year too, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi said this evening that the campaign is becoming increasingly popular.

The campaign -- launched by PM Modi during the Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav in 2021, is now in its fourth year. It is meant to instil the feeling of Nationalism by encouraging people to display the National flag at their homes.

In a post on X on the eve of the 78th Independence Day, PM Modi said, "HarGharTiranga has become popular all across India, indicating the deep respect 140 crore Indians have for the Tricolour".

Under the campaign, Indians are allowed to fly the national flag at their homes. A selfie with the flag can also be uploaded at the Har Ghar Tiranga website, after which one receives certificates of participation.

PM Modi also applauded President Droupadi Murmu's address to the nation this evening.

"An inspiring address by Rashtrapati Ji on the eve of our Independence Day. It motivates us to keep working to build a prosperous and developed India," the post read.

Earlier, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, other Union Ministers, Chief Ministers of BJP-ruled states and BJP leaders participated in the "Har Ghar Tiranga Abhiyan".

A Tiranga Yatra that is part of the 'Har Ghar Tiranaga Abhiyan', was also held.

Security has been strengthened in and around Delhi ahead of tomorrow's celebrations, which will be led by PM Modi with flag hoisting and address from the iconic Red Fort.

More than 10,000 police personnel and 3,000 traffic police personnel have been deployed across the national capital. Mock drills were conducted in VVIP areas on Wednesday, officials have said.
