Chhattisgarh CM Vishnu Deo Sai flagged off the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' campaign in Raipur ahead of Independence Day. The campaign, aimed at honoring martyrs and promoting national unity, will run across the state until August 15. However, it has sparked a political row as State Congress President Deepak Baij attacked the BJP, questioning its history and calling the yatra an attempt to 'wash away sins.' While the government focuses on patriotism and honoring soldier families, the opposition's remarks have turned the campaign into a political debate in the state. https://peoplesupdate.com/chhattisgarh-har-ghar-tiranga-campaign-cm-sai-flag-off-deepak-baij-attack-bjp-180518

According to Hindu mythology, Lord Rama had an elder sister named Shanta. She was the first child of King Dasharatha and Kausalya but was adopted by King Romapada of Anga. Shanta was highly skilled in Vedas and arts. She played a crucial role in bringing sage Rishyasringa to Anga to perform a yagna that ended a severe drought. Her marriage to the sage eventually paved the way for King Dasharatha to perform the Putrakameshti Yagna, leading to the birth of Rama and his brothers. https://www.politentnews.com/devotional/who-was-lord-ramas-sister-what-was-her-role-in-the-ramayana-1621142
