New Delhi: On Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi implored citizens to turn the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign into a historic mass movement.
“As this year’s Independence Day approaches, let’s again make #HarGharTiranga a memorable mass movement. 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 https://harghartiranga.com,” PM Modi posted on his X handle.
He has replaced his profile picture with the national flag on his X handle.
Since its beginning two years ago, PM Modi’s HarGharTiranga campaign has grown into a nationwide movement. On July 28, the PM discussed the Har Ghar Tiranga Abhiyan and encouraged people to post selfies with the national flag on the website ‘harghartiranga.com’ during his monthly ‘Mann Ki Baat’ radio programme. According to him, the campaign has gained traction across all societal segments.
As part of the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign, Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Shri Amit Shah has also urged the people to submit their selfies and hoist the tricolor at home from August 9 to August 15.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah had referred to it as a national movement and encouraged people to keep up the zeal in a post on the X platform.
“PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s #HarGharTiranga campaign has evolved into a national movement over the last two years, awakening the basic unity in every Indian across the length and breadth of the nation. I appeal to all citizens to bolster this movement further and participate in it with the same enthusiasm again. Hoist our pride, our Tiranga, at your homes, take a selfie with the Tiranga, and upload it on the Har Ghar Tiranga website: https://harghartiranga.com.”
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will also launch the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign following Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call to organise the event ahead of Independence Day 2024.
The Har Ghar Tiranga campaign was launched by the Union Ministry of Culture in 2022, as part of the ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’ celebrations, commemorating the completion of 75 years of India’s independence.
