PUNE: A-90-year old retired teacher Rajaram Keshav Shinde recalled his early school days when they were restricted by a teacher from drawing Indian flag pictures in their notebooks.
"The then British government had appointed a teacher to run the school. He was an Indian national. But he would instruct us not to draw a picture of the Indian flag in our notebooks. That was the situation when I was in school. But today, we are hoisting our flags proudly at homes," he said while participating in the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign at Nira village Nira in Purandar tehsil, about 72 km from Pune.
