You hoist me twice a year. But I represent 1.4 billion Indians every single day. 🇮🇳 I wasn’t created overnight. Long before I flew over the Red Fort, India’s flag went through years of evolution, countless designs, and one dream—a free India. In 1921, Pingali Venkayya presented an early design, while Mahatma Gandhi imagined the spinning wheel as a symbol of self-reliance.
Then, on 22 July 1947, India adopted the Tricolour we know today. Saffron represents courage, white stands for truth and peace, and green represents faith in the future. The spinning wheel made way for the Ashoka Chakra—a reminder that a nation must never stop moving forward. 🇮🇳
On 15 August 1947, I finally flew over a free India. Since then, I’ve flown over battlefields, Olympic podiums, scientific breakthroughs and the hands of Indians who dared to dream bigger. I am not just three colours stitched together—I carry the dreams of millions who never lived to see me fly. So this Independence Day, don’t just salute me. Give me a reason to fly higher. ❤️🇮🇳
