Bihar CM joins Tiranga Yatra in Munger's Haveli Kharagpur
Patna, Aug 14
Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary reached Haveli Kharagpur in Munger district on Friday to participate in a special Tiranga Yatra organised ahead of Independence Day.
His arrival sparked enthusiasm among BJP workers, NDA supporters and local residents.
The streets of Kharagpur were filled with people carrying the Tricolour and raising slogans of "Bharat Mata Ki Jai."
A large number of workers and residents had gathered since morning to welcome the Chief Minister and participate in the procession.
The Tiranga Yatra passed through the city's main roads, with the Tricolour being prominently displayed along the route.
The participation of local youth and residents added to the festive and patriotic atmosphere.
Several prominent leaders and representatives of the ruling alliance participated in the programme, including Minister-in-Charge Sanjay Kumar, local MLA Kumar Prannoy, Nachiketa Mandal, Legislative Councilor Lalmohan Gupta, BJP district president Arun Kumar Poddar, JD(U) district president Saurabh Nidhi, and LJP (Ram Vilas) national secretary Mithlesh Singh.
Given the Chief Minister's participation and the large gathering, the local administration made extensive security arrangements.
Police personnel were deployed along the procession route to regulate traffic and maintain law and order.
The Tiranga Yatra turned Haveli Kharagpur into a vibrant display of national pride, while also drawing significant political participation from leaders and workers of the ruling alliance.
Earlier in the day, Samrat Choudhary took to social media to share his participation in the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign.
Responding to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's call, Choudhary hoisted the national flag at his official residence in Patna and paid tribute to the immortal martyrs who sacrificed their lives during India's freedom struggle.
In his post, Choudhary urged citizens to join the nationwide campaign by hoisting the Tricolour at their homes and sharing their photographs on social media with the hashtag #HarGharTiranga.
He appealed to people to turn the campaign into a movement of public participation and spread the spirit of patriotism among every citizen.

Proud moment for Munger! The youth turning out in large numbers shows that patriotism is alive and well. However, I hope the administration also focuses on development in these rural areas, not just during election time or special events.
Har Ghar Tiranga is a good campaign. But let me say this - the real tribute to martyrs would be better roads, reliable electricity, and quality education in every village of Bihar. Just saying 🏳️
Wonderful to see the CM and local leaders walking with common citizens. The bharaat mata ki jai slogans gave me goosebumps! This is what unity looks like. Happy Independence Day to all! 🇮🇳✨
Security arrangements were on point. The police did a good job managing the crowd. It's nice to see political leaders from all NDA partners joining together for a common patriotic cause. But let's also remember the martyrs who fought for our freedom - we owe them more than just one day of celebration.
As someone from Munger, I can say the atmosphere was truly electric! The youth participation was amazing. This event shows that even in small towns, the love for our nation is strong. Jai Hind! 🧡🤍💚
