Indian flag

The Indian flag, adopted on July 22, 1947, features three horizontal stripes: saffron, white, and green. Saffron represents courage and sacrifice, white symbolizes peace and truth, and green stands for faith and chivalry. In the center of the white band is the Ashoka Chakra, a navy blue, 24-spoke wheel that represents the eternal wheel of law and righteousness. The flag embodies India's commitment to unity, diversity, and progress, reflecting the country’s rich heritage and democratic values. It serves as a powerful symbol of national pride and identity.
