India’s geographical map was created in a human chain on Saturday in Indore, setting a new world record.
The event got registered in the World Book of Record as it observed the largest human chain forming the country’s map to commemorate Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav marking 75 years of Independence of the country.
More than 5000 school students, social workers, and other participants joined together to create the map at the event, which was organised by the social organisation “Jwala” at Divya Shaktipeeth.
According to Dr. Divya Gupta, the founder of “Jwala,” through this effort, an attempt will be made to break the existing world record for the longest human chain in a geographic shape.
“On the map of India, we had created a human chain that extended both inside and outside of the country. On the country’s map’s border, a human chain had previously been established; however, we were able to draw people within by creating a tricolour and blue Ashok Chakra in the centre. Total 5,335 people participated in this event,” she further said.
She continued, “Shri Shakti was created on the edge of the map of India to highlight the importance and strength of the country’s women.
India will mark its 75th anniversary of independence on August 15, and numerous activities are being planned to mark the occasion.
The Central government and the Indian people observe Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav (AKAM) to commemorate the nation’s 75th anniversary of independence with a passion for bringing the Tiranga home and participating in the “Har Ghar Tiranga” campaign.
On March 12, 2021, the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’s formal journey was started, beginning a 75-week countdown to our nation’s 75th anniversary of independence. The goal of the initiative is to encourage Indians everywhere to fly the flag at home.
Instead of just keeping it formal or institutional, the program’s goal is to make the bond with the national flag more personal.
