Har Ghar Tiranga, Har Ghar Khadi Campaign

"Har Ghar Tiranga, Har Ghar Khadi" Campaign: The Chairman of the Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC) recently launched the "Har Ghar Tiranga, Har Ghar Khadi" initiative to promote the use and trade of Khadi garments. The goal of this campaign is to encourage people to hoist national flags made from Khadi, thus promoting both national pride and the craft of Khadi weaving.

As part of this initiative, special 3x2 feet national flags made of Khadi/Polyester are now available at Khadi stores across India. These flags are designed to be a symbol of the spirit of independence and patriotism. In addition, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has appealed to citizens to participate in the Tiranga Yatra on Independence Day and to buy Khadi clothes as part of the celebration.
