This Dharma Dhwaja is not just a flag. It is the flag of the rejuvenation of Indian civilisation. The Saffron colour, Suryavansh's signia, the 'Om' word, and the Kovidara tree impersonate Ram Rajya's glory. This flag is a resolution, a success, a story of struggle to creation, a physical form of the struggle of 100s years... For the coming thousands of centuries, this flag will proclaim Lord Ram's values... Truth is Dharma... There should be no discrimination or pain, and there is peace and happiness... There should be no poverty, and no one is helpless..."

– PM Modi after the Dhwajarohan at the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya #Culture
