The Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) will launch its two-day ‘Tiranga Yatra’ across the Uttar Pradesh from Tuesday to appeal to the people to display the national flag at their homes. BJP MPs, MLAs and party workers would be part of the Tiranga yatra that is being taken out as part of the campaign.
UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has set a target to hoist 4.50 crore national flags in the state, BJP general secretary Amar Pal Maurya informed. “Under the Tricolour campaign, the national flag should be hoisted at all residences, government and private offices and buildings and other establishments,” the Uttar Pradesh CM has said. The saffron party has also set a target to reach out to five lakh Muslim households under the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign. The BJP leaders and workers will be appealing to the dargahs and madrasas to unfurl the Tricolour.
Under the aegis of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, the central government has started a campaign ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ to encourage the citizens to hoist the national flag of India in their homes to instill a feeling of patriotism in the hearts of people and reminisce the contribution of those who tirelessly worked for building the nation.
