New Delhi, August 11 . Delhi BJP leader Rekha Gupta and Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta, along with other MLAs, took out a ‘Tiranga Yatra’ (Tricolour Procession) within the Delhi Assembly complex on Monday. The procession began at the statue of Mahatma Gandhi and concluded at the statue of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar. The leaders described it as a symbol of commitment to the nation’s unity, democratic values, and the ideals enshrined in the Constitution.
After the procession, the leaders stated that the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ (Tricolour in Every Home) campaign would further strengthen the spirit of patriotism among the people. Deputy Speaker and BJP MLA Mohan Singh Bisht said, “The Tiranga Yatra is intrinsically linked to our honour, dignity, and self-respect. The Tricolour is not merely a piece of cloth; it is connected to our emotions. The Ashoka Chakra within the Tricolour reminds us of the passage of time. When we look at the other elements of the Tricolour, it certainly evokes a sense of self-respect and pride within us.”

He added, “When Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ programme, every Indian felt that this Tricolour—with its three colours—was no ordinary object. It is for this very Tricolour that brave soldiers at the borders willingly faced bullets and even sacrificed their lives.”
Delhi government minister Ashish Sood appealed to the people, saying, “Let us all pledge to serve the country and Delhi under the shadow of the Tricolour. The Tricolour is a symbol of this nation’s honour, pride, and glory.”
Minister Ravinder Indraraj Singh said, “Today, we are not merely taking out a Tiranga Yatra; every citizen of the country is connected to it. From Yoga Day to other national occasions, the Prime Minister has transformed various events into nationwide movements. The Tricolour resides deep within our hearts and stands as a symbol of our honour, pride, and dignity.”
BJP MLA Shikha Roy said, “The Tricolour represents our honour, dignity, and pride. It is a matter of pride and joy for us.” “As we enter the month of August, we all await August 15th with the same eagerness as we do our birthdays or family celebrations. The message behind this ‘Tiranga Yatra’ is simply that our Tricolour should continue to fly proudly across the globe. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the prestige of the Tricolour has grown manifold worldwide, and we wish for that honour to be upheld. We must strive together to ensure this flag flies even higher; that is the message we wish to convey.”
MLA Ajay Mahawar said, “This is a moment of immense pride for the people of India. Independence Day is a significant occasion for all Indians, and therefore, on the final day of the session, all MLAs are taking out a ‘Tiranga Yatra’ within the Assembly complex, led by the Chief Minister.”
MLA Anil Goyal said, “The ‘Tiranga Yatra’ symbolises our honour, my self-respect, and the nation’s freedom—a freedom for which thousands sacrificed their lives. Today, in honour of the Tricolour, our Chief Minister is leading this ‘Tiranga Yatra’ at the Assembly.”
