On this occasion, information has been received about hoisting the Indian tricolor 6 feet long and 10 feet wide. At the same time, the height of the pole will be 25 feet.

 

 

Last year too, on the occasion of the country's Independence Day, the Federation of Indian Associations (FIA) had hoisted the national flag on the tricolor Times Square. This was the first time that the tricolor was hoisted on Times Square. FIA President Ankur Vaidya said that our organization has decided that we will unfurl the tricolor at Times Square every year because the celebration of Independence Day has a special significance. Ankur said that we want to continue this tradition every year. This year, the tricolor that we will unfurl at Times Square will be the largest among the tricolors that have been hoisted here.

 

 

 

Consul General of India in New York Randhir Jaiswal will unfurl the tricolor on this grand event. On the occasion of Independence Day, an Indian-American chess player who created history to win the title of youngest Grandmaster and 17-year-old Samir Banerjee will be honored.
