History of Indian national flag



Indian national flag was adopted in its present form during a meeting of the Constituent Assembly held on 22 July 1947, and it became the official flag of the Dominion of India on 15 August 1947. The flag was subsequently retained as that of the Republic of India. Indian national flag was designed by a Muslim women called Mrs. Suraiya Badruddin Tayyabji from Hyderabad, who was the (ICS Officer in the PMO in 1947). She designed the flag and it was approved on July 17th, 1947.

Suraiya Badruddin’s husband Badruddin Tayyabji was the first Indian Solicitor and the first Chief Justice of Mumbai in 1902. Suraiya was the neice of Sir Akbar Hydari of Hyderabad and Maulavi Allauddin, the first martyr in 1857 who was transported life to Kalapani Jail in Andamans by British and Abdul Hassan Safrani a Hyderabadi who coined Jai Hind Slogan.
In India, the term "tricolouralmost always refers to the Indian national flag. The flag is based on the Swaraj flag, a flag of the Indian National Congress designed by Pingali Venkayya.  Venkayya Ji had designed the flag of the Home rule league and the first Congress flag which had charkha in it. Not the present flag with the wheel. RSS had burned the Indian Tricolor because it was designed by a Muslim and they opposed the green band. They had warned a triange “Orange Pennant” to be their national flag and later RSS was banned by the government of India.
