Amit Shah Raises National Flag at His Home in Delhi, Declares 'Har Ghar Tiranga' Unifies 140 Crore Indian Citizens
Har Ghar Tiranga Campaign: Celebrating Unity and Patriotism in India
The fourth edition of the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign is currently underway, marking the continued celebration of India's national flag and fostering a deep sense of unity and patriotism among its citizens. The campaign was first launched in 2022 as part of the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav initiative, a nationwide movement to commemorate 75 years of India's independence.
A Symbol of National Pride
The 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign encourages every Indian to hoist the national flag at their homes, workplaces, and community spaces. This simple yet powerful act has transformed into a symbol of national pride for Indians. The tricolor is being displayed everywhere, from urban homes to rural villages, and from bustling workplaces to peaceful community spaces.
Uniting Citizens and Fostering Patriotism
The campaign is not just about hoisting the flag but also about deepening the connection between Indians and their national flag. It aims to unite citizens and foster a stronger sense of patriotism. Union Home Minister Amit Shah, in his statement, emphasised that 'Har Ghar Tiranga' has become a mass campaign that binds the country in a thread of unity under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
A Journey of Growth and Evolution
The 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign has evolved over the years, with each edition building upon the success of the previous one. The first edition, held in 2022, saw significant achievements such as a Guinness World Record for the largest human image of a waving National Flag in Chandigarh and over 23 crore homes hoisting the Tiranga.
The second edition in 2023 amplified digital engagement further with over 10 crore selfies, reinforcing patriotism nationwide. The third edition, held in 2024, featured nationwide rallies like the Tiranga Bike Rally involving Members of Parliament to connect symbolic landmarks and promote participation across states and key sectors.
The 2025 Edition: Emphasizing Voluntary Actions and Community Engagement
The current edition, running from August 2 to 15, has a phased approach: awareness creation, mass outreach, and participatory activities emphasizing voluntary actions, civic pride, cleanliness, and gratitude to the armed forces. A new feature this year is the introduction of "Tiranga Volunteers" to enable participation by diverse groups including those limited by age or technology access. More than 9 lakh volunteers are assisting in spreading the campaign across urban and rural India.
Combining Cleanliness Drive with Patriotic Spirit
The 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign has also been combined with a cleanliness drive under the banner “Har Ghar Tiranga – Har Ghar Swachhta,” organized by ministries like the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs. It includes decorative and eco-friendly events such as flag-themed competitions, melas (fairs), and involves local self-help groups, NGOs, artists, and community leaders to spread the patriotic message alongside civic cleanliness.
In conclusion, the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign has grown from a one-time celebration into a sustained nationwide movement promoting the flag as a symbol of unity, patriotism, and collective identity, deeply integrating civic engagement and community participation. This year's edition offers an opportunity for every Indian to become a 'Har Ghar Tiranga' Ambassador and earn a badge and certificate from the Ministry of Culture. Let us all continue to celebrate our national flag with pride and unity.
