Prime Minister Modi added, “Digital Jyot uses technology and enables you to share a heartfelt message of gratitude to our freedom fighters."
As per the Ministry of Culture, “the Digital Jyot symbolises the glow of freedom that illuminates our lives. It is surrounded by an illuminated metallic floral sculpture inspired by the courage and determination of our freedom fighters and martyrs.”
The design is inspired by the “nature and flowers linked to ideas of hope, strength, and positivity.”
The Ministry added, “the Digital Jyot reminds us that “a person may no longer be there but his or her ideas live on forever.”
For paying the tribute, one will have to visit the website ditigaltribute.in and follow the simple instructions. The message will feature on the LED screen installed at Central Park.
