Make ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ a celebration: PM Modi’s appeal to the nation

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday appealed to the nation to participate enthusiastically in the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ (Tiranga at every home) campaign to celebrate Independence Day on August 15 and pay tribute to freedom fighters.
Sharing a reel on Instagram, PM Modi said, “Celebrate August 15 with pride, pay tribute to freedom fighters, and pledge to build a developed India. Tiranga in every home, Tiranga in every household, Tiranga in every heart.”
“Let us make ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ a celebration for every household,” the Prime Minister wrote in his post, as the country prepares to mark its 80th Independence Day.
Earlier this week, while calling upon citizens to join the campaign, PM Modi described the Tricolour as a source of “pride” and “inspiration.”
On ‘X’ (formerly Twitter), PM Modi stated, “Our Tricolour is our pride and a constant source of inspiration to always give our best for the country.”
He added, “Let us participate enthusiastically in the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign and reiterate our collective resolve to contribute towards building a developed India.” He noted that this year’s theme is based on the national song ‘Vande Mataram’.
The Prime Minister said, “It is heartening that this year’s efforts are dedicated to ‘Vande Mataram’, and that too at a time when we are celebrating its 150th anniversary.”
The ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign was launched under the ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’ initiative to encourage citizens to bring the national flag into their homes and hoist the Tricolour as part of the celebrations marking India’s independence.
The campaign was rooted in the idea that the public’s relationship with the national flag had traditionally been more formal and institutional rather than a personal expression of national pride.
By encouraging citizens to bring the flag home, the initiative aimed to transform the Tricolour into a symbol of personal connection with the nation, while also demonstrating a collective commitment to nation-building and national unity. This year, ‘Har Ghar Tiranga 2026’ is being dedicated to the spirit of the 150th anniversary of ‘Vande Mataram’. Through this initiative, the nation celebrates patriotism, pride in the Tricolour, and the deep love for the motherland reflected in India’s national song.
