NEW DELHI: As India prepares to celebrate its 78th Independence Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged the citizens to transform the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign into a nationwide movement by proudly displaying the national flag at their homes.

On Friday, PM Modi changed his social media profile picture to the Tricolour, encouraging everyone to do the same as a show of unity. He also invited people to participate in the campaign by sharing selfies with the national flag, which can be uploaded on the official website, https://harghartiranga.com.

In a post on the platform X, the Prime Minister said, "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."

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will be launching the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign nationwide from August 11. This campaign will include a Tiranga Yatra from August 11 to August 14, during which the national flag will be hoisted on every house, shop, and office. Additionally, a cleanliness drive will be conducted as part of the initiative.

In his 112th episode of 'Mann Ki Baat' on July 28, PM Modi encouraged all Indians to participate in the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign as a way to honor Independence Day. He emphasized the growing trend of taking selfies with the national flag and sharing them on social media, urging leaders and party workers to ensure the Tricolour is displayed on homes, offices, and shops.

The 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign is a significant part of the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, launched in 2021 to mark the 75th anniversary of India's independence. The initiative aims to instill a sense of patriotism among citizens and raise awareness about the importance of the Indian National Flag.

Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav is an initiative by the Government of India to celebrate and honor 75 years of independence, showcasing the country's rich history, culture, and achievements. This Mahotsav is dedicated to the people of India who have played a pivotal role in the nation's journey and who embody the potential to realize PM Modi's vision of India 2.0, driven by the spirit of Aatmanirbhar Bharat.
