Earlier, he led a ‘Tiranga’ rally in Srinagar today, attracting an estimated 10,000 participants as part of the government’s ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ initiative. The rally, held in the lead-up to Independence Day, started at the Sher-e-Kashmir International Convention Centre (SKICC) by Dal Lake and moved toward the Botanical Garden.
The ‘Tiranga’ rally is a significant event in the initiative that encourages citizens to display the national flag at home in celebration of India’s Independence. Similar rallies were held across several districts of the Union Territory on Saturday.
