He said that we need to create a better future for our future generations."We need to lay down the foundation of the future glory for India and build upon it to take our country to the pinnacle of its glory by the end of the Amrit Kaal when we will be celebrating the 100th anniversary of India's Independence," said the minister.He exhorted the youth to come forward and work towards the goal envisioned by the Hon'ble PM and make our nation, the leader of the world.Minister of State, Railways Darshana Jardosh and several other dignitaries attended the event.'Har Ghar Tiranga' is a campaign under the aegis of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav to encourage people to bring the Tiranga home and to hoist it to mark the 75th year of India's independence.Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav is an initiative of the Government of India to celebrate and commemorate 75 years of independence and the glorious history of India's people, culture and achievements.The programme envisages inspiring Indians everywhere to hoist the national flag at their homes. The aim of the programme is to make the relationship with the national flag a more personal one rather than just keeping it formal or institutional.The idea behind the initiative is to invoke the feeling of patriotism in the hearts of the people and promote awareness about the tricolour.Earlier, Indian citizens were not allowed to hoist the National Flag except on selected occasions. This changed after a decade-long legal battle by industrialist Naveen Jindal culminated in the landmark SC judgement of January 23, 2004 that declared that the right to fly the National Flag freely with respect and dignity is a fundamental right of an Indian citizen within the meaning of Article 19(1) (a) of the Constitution of India.Lauding the Centre and PM Modi for the Har Ghar Tiranga Campaign, Naveen Jindal has urged every Indian to make 'Har Din Tiranga' their motto.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
