The campaign aims to encourage people to bring the Tricolour into their homes and make Independence Day a more participatory national celebration, rather than limiting the festivities to official events.
The campaign is also being promoted through the hashtag #HarGharTiranga, encouraging citizens to display the national flag with pride during the Independence Day period.
NDA leaders wave the Tricolour in Parliament
The Prime Minister’s appeal came on the same day as NDA leaders and MPs gathered for the alliance’s weekly parliamentary meeting, ‘Mangal Milan’. Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and other NDA leaders were seen waving the Tricolour and raising patriotic slogans during the gathering at the Parliament complex.
The visuals of NDA MPs with the national flag added a political dimension to the ongoing Independence Day preparations, as the ruling alliance sought to showcase its participation in the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign.
Parliament witnesses rival protests
The patriotic display came against the backdrop of political tensions in the Parliament complex. NDA and opposition MPs held rival protests on Tuesday, with both sides raising slogans and displaying placards over contentious issues.
While the NDA meeting focused on the Tricolour and the upcoming Independence Day celebrations, opposition protests highlighted the continuing political confrontation inside and around Parliament.
