National Flag Maker :-
As our freedom, the journey of our national flag is also quite long. After passing through many colors and designs, national flag came in its original form which was unanimously accepted as a big one. In order to maintain the value of this tricolour, countless countrymen sacrified their lives.
Pingli Venkaiah, the name of the indian independence movement that very few people know. It has been 72 years since the country got its independence but it is the misfortune of our country that today we have forgotten the same person who created the national flag of our country.
True Patriot and agricultural scientist Pingali Venkaiah born on 02 August, 1876, at Machli-pattnam in Andra Pradesh of present India. After studying 30 different countries flags for 5 years, Venkaiah thought about the 'Tiranga'. With Mahatma Gandhi's suggestion, Venkaiah made the indian flag.
In 1931, Indian National Congress accepted this flag made of three colours- Saffron, white and green with 'charkha' in the middle in the All India Conference at karachi. In 1947, the indian government replaced the Gandhi's 'charkha' with "Ashoka Chakra" in the middle of the flag. He passed away on 04 july, 1963. In tribute to him, indian post department issused a ticket of five rupees on 12 August, 2009.
