Yogi Leads Tiranga Yatra for 'Har Ghar Tiranga' Campaign
People in India are taking part in a special celebration called the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign, which means 'a flag in every home'.
The flag of India is called the Tricolour because it has three colours.
A leader named Yogi Adityanath, who is in charge of a big region called Uttar Pradesh, led a walk called a Tiranga Yatra in the city of Gorakhpur.
During the walk, people carried the national flag through the streets with joy.
They remembered brave heroes of the past, like Rani Lakshmibai and Maharana Pratap, who fought for India's freedom.
Yogi Adityanath said the flag reminds everyone of the sacrifices made by freedom fighters long ago.
He also talked about how the flag changed over time, from a spinning wheel symbol to the wheel called the Dharma Chakra.
The Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, also asked everyone to join the celebration and feel proud of the flag.
People were invited to put the flag on their homes and share pictures of themselves with it on a special website.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath led a Tiranga Yatra in Gorakhpur as part of the nationwide 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign.
The yatra concluded at Railway Station Chowk after tributes were paid to freedom icons Rani Lakshmibai and Maharana Pratap.
Adityanath said the Tricolour embodies the sacrifices of India's revolutionaries and warned that depriving youth of their ideals would be an injustice to the nation.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged citizens to participate enthusiastically in the campaign, calling the Tricolour a 'pride' and 'source of inspiration'.
This year's campaign has been organised under the theme of 'Vande Mataram', and citizens were urged to hoist the flag and upload selfies at harghartiranga.com.
