National flags are in scarce supply as people are thronging shops to buy them in accordance with the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ call given by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to mark the 75th anniversary of Indian independence.
Thousands of students, youth, employees, NGOs, and traders are taking out rallies and organising walks across the State with a large number of flags, leading to a steep rise in demand for the Tricolour..
Book stalls, fancy shops and garment showrooms have been doing brisk business for the last few days by selling flags of different sizes. With Independence Day drawing near, the supply is unable to keep up with the demand, they say.
