History

In the initial phase, citizens were called upon to hoist the tricolor at their homes between 13th and 15th August 2022 and upload a Selfie with Tiranga on the official website of the campaign. In subsequent years, the campaign was continued every year on the occasion of Independence Day and evolved into a nationwide initiative based on public participation.[7] [8][9]
