Andhra Pradesh: It is oozing patriotism on social media; people change DP to tricolor

Amaravati: Patriotism fever has gripped Andhra Pradesh in a run-up to the 75th Independence day. The vibes are already palpable. People are expressing their love for the country by changing their WhatsApp display picture (DP).

During his July 31 Mann Ki Baat edition, PM Modi asked people to hoist the Tricolour at home from August 13 to 15. He also suggested changing the profile photo on social media to Tiranga from August 2 to August 15. People especially youth are seen at the forefront to make this campaign successful. Teachers at the colleges and schools are asking students to be part of the campaign.


"I remember celebrating independence day during school days. Now after so many years, I feel like I have become a school-going girl. Not just changing my DP, I brought a national flag and kept it on my work desk. It reminds me about my national responsibilities and invoke a feeling of patriotism", said Sruthi, a software employee from Visakhapatnam.

For another techie from Vijayawada, her group of friends decided to wear white outfits, pin the national flag on their chests and spread patriotism. "We would like to dedicate one day in this week to doing good activities in the city. We have collected money within our team to get some books and food for the needy. We will do a play about our freedom fighters", said Kavya, a techie from Vijayawada.

Ways to be part of the campaign:

-Click a picture of yourself with the national flag, and put it as DP on Facebook/ WhatsApp/ Twitter/Instagram

-Keep the national flag as your DP on social media.
