In preparation for India's 80th Independence Day, various Tiranga Yatras—patriotic processions featuring the national flag—are being organized across different Indian states. These campaigns aim to honor freedom fighters and promote the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ initiative, which encourages citizens and the Indian diaspora to hoist the national flag at their homes. This year's campaign, overseen by the Ministry of Culture, is scheduled to run from August 9 to 17, 2026, specifically commemorating the 150th anniversary of the national song ‘Vande Mataram’. 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called for widespread participation, describing the Tricolour as a source of pride for building a ‘Viksit Bharat’. On August 10, the Prime Minister issued a video message via social media, urging families to display the flag at home to honor freedom fighters and support the goal of a developed India. 

Support for the campaign has extended through various levels of government. In Himachal Pradesh, Governor Kavinder Gupta called for enthusiastic participation, while in Delhi, Lieutenant Governor T. S. Sandhu urged residents to join the movement. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has also organized local events to engage the youth, including a Tricolour march in Bengaluru and a bike rally in Delhi. Other significant activities have been reported in Jharkhand, Rajasthan, Jammu and Kashmir, West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh. In Jaipur, Union Minister JP Nadda and Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma led a large-scale rally, where Nadda noted how the campaign has turned the flag into a mass movement.
