History of Indian National Flag Adoption Day
The Indian National Flag, designed by Pingali Venkayya, was first adopted by the Indian Constitution Assembly in a meeting on 22nd of July in the year 1947 that’s why it is being celebrated every year since 1947 all over the India by the title “Indian National Flag Adoption Day” on 22nd of July. The present form of the national flag came into power when it was officially declared as an “official flag of the Dominion of India” in the meeting of Constitution Assembly.
The tricolor of the national flag means tiranga was decided and described in the Indian Flag Code as top color saffron (representing courage and sacrifice), bottom color green (representing prosperity) and middle color white (representing peace, truth and purity) having Ashoka Chakra of navy blue color (representing laws of Dharma means righteousness) with 24 spokes in the center. Indian national flag is based on Swaraj flag made up of the hand weaved cotton cloth by the Mahatma Gandhi. The flag manufacturing right is given to the “Khadi Development and Village Industries Commission” and “Karnataka Khadi Gramodyoga Samyukta Sangha” from which flag is allocated to other regions.
Sister Nivedita (a Hindu reformist) had proposed for another flag having thunderbolt in centre with Vande Mataram slogan and 108 oil lamps at border which was then presented to the meeting of Indian National Congress in 1906. Whereas, another 30 different designs of flag was proposed by the Pingali Venkayya in 1916. Annie Besant and Bal Gangadhar Tilak too adopted new flag in the same year as a Home Rule Movement. Other flag design (having white top, spinning charkha in the center in the middle red and lower green banner) was initiated by the Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi in April 1921.
