In this beautifully illustrated book filled with little known facts from Indian history, and pictures and photographs, read some unusual stories about our Republic: How the first flag for the freedom movement was created in 1906 by a pair of revolutionaries-Hemchandra Kanungo and Sachindra Prasad Bose. About Sister Nivedita, the Irish teacher who became a disciple of Swami Vivekananda and created a flag for the freedom movement, whose elements live on even today. About the journey of Kartar Singh, the nineteenyear-old revolutionary who joined the Ghadar Party that also made a flag for a free India, and who was hanged by the British. And about the genius of flag designer Pingali Venkayya, who was a linguist, geologist and agriscientist as well, who made 30 different Indian flag designs. As you discover these facts, also read about the days leading up to India’s Independence in 1947, when the Flag Committee of the Constituent Assembly worked quickly to create a new flag for a free India. Their final design was a flag that would proclaim the country’s fundamental values of peace, non-violence and sacrifice through the graceful tricolour
