Any individual, social or business organization of J&K can take the National Flag without any cost. The Federation has also decided to distribute Tricolor free of cost among the shopkeepers of its entire ‘Mandi’ on Monday so that it can be seen waving in the entire ‘Mandi’ between August 13 to 15.
This was announced today by Deepak Gupta, president of the Federation, while addressing a press conference in the Federation office. Gupta said that the initiative started by Prime Minister Narendra Modi has started appearing to be like the national festival as each and every citizen in the UT of J&K has been voluntarily hoisting the Tricolours at their homes and business establishments besides replacing their profile pictures with National Flags on social media.
He said that there is easy availability of the National Flags and people are buying the same but to encourage more and more people and to further strengthen the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign, the Federation has decided to distribute Tricolor without any cost. The Federation wanted that every single person in J&K unfurl the National Flag at his or her residence and also business establishment, he said, adding, “We are Indians and it is our responsibility to keep our National Flag floating high”.
