Tiranga is a symbol of India’s honour, pride and glory, says Yogi

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday (August 11, 2026) in Gorakhpur said ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign is a tribute to the sacrifices of freedom fighters and urged people to display the national flag at their homes with pride and respect.

“Our Tricolour is a symbol of India’s honour, pride and glory. Throughout the freedom movement, our freedom fighters, at various times and in diverse manners, displayed different flags and infused new energy into the struggle. In 1905, the Swadeshi movement emerged as the fundamental principle of India’s quest for freedom. Subsequently, during the 1930s, the charkha positioned at the centre of the Tricolour symbolized the banner of the freedom fighters. Following the achievement of independence, the national flag was officially adopted, featuring the chakra that represents all states alongside the Tricolour.,” Mr. Adityanath said, addressing the gathering before inaugurating the Yatra.
