00:00Not only in India, but all over the world,
00:03all the NRIs, all the people connected to India,
00:06we will celebrate it with great enthusiasm.
00:09It is about the Tiranga, which is our flag,
00:13and which is our soul.
00:17How did it start?
00:19It has a colorful story.
00:22In 1857, when Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs and Christians
00:25came together,
00:28who were foreigners in India,
00:31then it was thought to make a flag.
00:34Many designs were made of it.
00:36Many people made its designs.
00:38People of all religions made its designs.
00:41And if I remember correctly,
00:44then in 1906,
00:47a design was made of it,
00:50which was distributed at the Parsi Bagan Chowk in Kolkata.
00:54Gangadhar Tilak also made a design of it.
01:01Apart from Bal Gangadhar Tilak,
01:08later on, the design was given by
01:13Bankim Chandra Chatterjee and Aurobindo Ghosh.
01:18In that design, Vande Mataram was also written.
01:23After that, in the design,
01:27Gandhiji told Pingali Bankaiya,
01:33who was from South India, Hyderabad.
01:38He had fought against the British historically.
01:46He was asked to make a flag.
01:49The flag he made was almost final.
01:53It had three colours.
01:56Gandhiji's Charkha was in it.
01:58Ultimately, it came in the form of a Tiranga.
02:03Instead of Charkha,
02:05a wheel of 24 spokes was replaced.
