New Delhi, Aug. 7 -- As India gears up to celebrate its 80th Independence Day, the fifth edition of the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign is set to kick off nationwide from August 9th to 17th.

Spearheaded by the Ministry of Culture, this year's week-long drive carries a special focus on the spirit of "Vande Mataram."

Across the country, citizens are being encouraged to hoist the National Flag at their homes, participate in local Tiranga Yatras, and join mass renditions of the national song.

On the digital front, the government has launched an upgraded portal at harghartiranga.com, where citizens can pin a flag, upload a Selfie with Tiranga and Vande Mataram lyrical music, and instantly download an official certificate of participation.
