About the flag of India
What it means: The bands were given the meanings courage and sacrifice, peace and truth, and faith and chivalry. The Ashoka Chakra represents the eternal wheel of law.
Did you know? Until a 2021 rule change, the flag could only be made from khadi, a hand-spun cloth popularized by Mahatma Gandhi.
