Answer 2

Explanation:

The current tricoloured Indian National flag was designed by Pingali Venkayya of Macchilipatnam in 1916. While the flag has gone through many changes, Pingali Venkayya is credited for its rudimentary design. But before the ‘Tiranga’ came into existence there were other versions of our national flag. The evolution of our Tricolour is enmeshed with the evolution of our nation’s history and the Indian National Movement.

Sister Nivedita or popularly known in India as Bhagini Nivedita is often credited for the first design of Indian Flag. This Irish disciple of Swami Vivekananda designed a flag using yellow & red in 1904 with a ‘Vajra’ in the centre and the words ‘Vande Mataram’ written in Bengali on either side of the flag. While the colour red signified the freedom struggle, the yellow colour denoted victory. The Vajra was a depiction of Lord Indra’s weapon and stood for strength.
