The University Grants Commission (UGC) on Monday asked all higher education institutions to create awareness amongst students, staff and other stakeholders about the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign.
The central government has launched the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign under which people are being encouraged to hoist the tricolour at their houses to mark 75 years of India's independence.
"As part of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign has been launched to encourage citizens to hoist the national flag of India in their homes. The idea behind the campaign is to instil the feeling of patriotism in the hearts of people and reminisce the journey of India and those who have contributed towards creating this great nation," UGC secretary Rajnish Jain said in a letter to university vice-chancellors and college principals.
