‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ is a campaign that started under the aegis of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav to encourage people to bring the Tiranga home and to hoist it to mark India’s independence. It stemmed from the thought that our relationship with the national flag has always been more formal and institutional than personal. The idea behind the initiative was to invoke the feeling of patriotism in people’s hearts and promote awareness about the Indian National Flag. The Ministry of Culture is the nodal ministry for Har Ghar Tiranga.
Har Ghar Tiranga has grown to be a people’s movement. People across the country, belonging to different segments of society, have embraced and infused the idea with their warmth and support via participation in online and offline programmes and events.
Har Ghar Tiranga 2024
2024 marks the 3rd edition of the Har Ghar Tiranga programme to be celebrated from August 9-15, 2024. All States and Union Territories are actively participating in the celebrations, ensuring the campaign’s success. Key industry partners- e-commerce platforms, railways, civil aviation sectors, the Indian armed forces, and the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF)- are also actively disseminating information and promoting the campaign. Self-help groups nationwide are actively contributing to large-scale flag production and availability. This collaborative effort is turning the vision of honouring the National Flag into reality and another milestone celebration of the people of India by the people of India.
