Har Ghar Tiranga: Karnataka BJP sets a target of hoisting national flag on 75 lakh houses

The BJP state unit has set a target of ensuring that the national flag is hoisted on a minimum of 75 lakh houses in the state as part of the Har Ghar Tiranga programme.

Announcing this at a press conference in Bengaluru on Wednesday, BJP State General Secretary N. Ravikumar said the national flag would be hoisted from August 13 to August 15 under the programme to mark the platinum jubilee celebrations of the Indian Independence.

The party was keen that a minimum of 35,000 houses should hoist the national flag in each of the 224 assembly constituencies, he said, and pointed out that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had given a call for hoisting the national flag on more than 20 crore houses in the country to celebrate the occasion of the country’s 75th Independence Day as a mega national festival.
