Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Wednesday hoisted the tricolour at his residence in Dehradun as part of the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign.
Dhami said the campaign, inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has grown into a major patriotic movement that has reached people across the country. He called the tricolour a living symbol of India’s freedom, unity, and rich cultural heritage.
The Chief Minister urged everyone in Uttarakhand to proudly hoist the national flag with respect at their homes, offices, and shops this Independence Day. He also asked people to pay tribute to the freedom fighters who sacrificed for the independence of the nation, and to take a photo with the tricolour and upload it to the official ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ website.

Earlier in the day, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and his wife Sonal Shah hoisted the national flag at their residence in Delhi’s Krishna Menon Marg as part of the same campaign. Visuals showed the couple raising a large tricolour on their terrace, with their residence decorated in the colours of the Indian flag.
The Ministry of Culture announced on August 11 the launch of the fourth edition of the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign under the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav. The aim is to inspire citizens to bring the national flag into their homes and hearts.
The campaign has now turned into a people’s movement, with more than five lakh young people registering this year as volunteers. Union Culture and Tourism Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat said these volunteers would encourage more people to take part in the campaign and celebrate the tricolour.
