Har saal 15 August (Independence Day) aur 26 January (Republic Day) ke mauqe par poora Bharat fakhr ke saath apna Rashtriya Dhwaj yani Tiranga lehrata hai. Yeh sirf ek parcham nahi, balki azaadi ki qurbaniyon, ekta aur desh ki pehchan ki nishani hai.
Lekin jab hum internet ya social media par search karte hain ke “Who Designed The National Flag Of India ?”, to mukhtalif jawab samne aate hain.
Kuch log kehte hain ke Tiranga Pingali Venkayya ne design kiya.
Kuch viral posts aur articles ka da’wa hota hai ke asal designer Suraiya Tyabji hai.
Kahin Badruddin Faiz Tyabji ka naam bhi aata hai.
Aakhir sach kya hai?
Kya Tiranga sirf ek hi shakhs ne banaya tha?
Ya phir maujood National Flag kai saalon ki evolution ka natija hai?
Is article me hum kisi community ya kisi shakhsiyat ko kam ya zyada credit dene ki koshish nahi karenge. Hamara maqsad sirf itna hai ke official historical records, Constituent Assembly debates aur reliable historians ki research ki buniyad par is sawal ka insaf ke saath jawab diya ja sake.
Agar history me kisi baat par historians ke darmiyan ikhtilaf hai, to hum use bhi wazeh taur par bayan karenge. Isi tarah hum history ko bina kisi ghair zaroori bias ke samajh sakte hain.
Tiranga Jhanda Kisne Banaya?
Ye sabse pehla sawal hai jiska jawab samajhna zaroori hai.
Iska seedha jawab hai: Nahi.
Aaj ka Tiranga koi ek din me nahi bana aur na hi iska poora design ek hi shakhs ne tayyar kiya. Indian National Flag lagbhag 40 saal ke safar ka natija hai. 1904 se lekar 1947 tak iske design me kai baar tabdeeli hui. Har daur me naye ideas aaye. Kuch designs reject hue. Kuch adopt hue.
Aur aakhir me 22 July 1947 ko Constituent Assembly ne jis Tirange ko adopt kiya, woh pehle ke tamam designs ka evolved version tha.
History hame batati hai ke is National Flag ki takmeel me mukhtalif logon ka mukhtalif marahil par contribution raha hai. Is liye hame poori Indian National Flag History samajhni hogi.
Indian National Flag Ki History
Indian National Flag ki kahani azaadi ki tehreek ke saath shuru hoti hai. Jab Bharat par British hukumat thi, us waqt Hindustan ka apna koi official National Flag nahi tha. Freedom movement ke dauran logon ko ek aisi nishani ki zarurat mehsoos hui jo poore mulk ki pehchan ban sake. Isi zarurat ne National Flag ki history ki buniyad rakhi. Chaliye dekhte hain ye safar kaise shuru hua.
1904–1905: Sister Nivedita Ka Jhanda
Indian National Flag ki shuruati history me pehla naam Sister Nivedita ka bhi liya jata hai.
Sister Nivedita asal me Ireland se thi aur Swami Vivekananda ki shagird thi.
Kuch historians ke mutabiq unhone 1904 ya 1905 ke aas paas ek flag ka design tayyar kiya tha.
Isme
• Vajra ka symbol
• Vande Mataram
• Kesariya rang
jaise elements shamil the.
Lekin ye kabhi Bharat ka official National Flag nahi bana.
Phir bhi history me isay Indian National Flag ki evolution ka ek aham qadam mana jata hai.
1906: Bharat Ka Pehla National Flag
7 August 1906 ko Kolkata ke Parsi Bagan Square me pehli baar ek Indian Flag jaisa parcham public taur par lehraya gaya. Is design me teen horizontal strips thi.
- Green
- Yellow
- Red
Flag par
- 8 Lotus (Kanwal Ke Phool)
- Suraj
- Chand
- ‘वंदे मातरम्’ likha hua tha.
Ye flag bhi official nahi tha. Lekin isne freedom movement ko ek nayi pehchan di. Isi wajah se kai historians isay pehla publicly displayed Indian Flag mante hain.
1907: Madam Bhikaji Cama Ka Jhanda
Indian National Flag ki history me ek aur bohot aham naam hai Madam Bhikaji Cama.
1907 me Germany ke Stuttgart me International Socialist Conference ke dauran unhone Indian Flag lehraya.
Ye pehli baar tha jab Bharat ki azaadi ka paigham international level par ek flag ke zariye pesh kiya gaya.
Madam Bhikaji Cama ka flag 1906 wale design se milta julta tha.
Indian Flag lehrane ki wajah se Madam Bhikaji Cama ko Indian freedom movement me National Flag ko duniya ke samne pesh karne wali pehli shakhsiyat mana jata hai.
1917: Home Rule Movement Ka Flag
1917 me Annie Besant aur Bal Gangadhar Tilak ne Home Rule Movement shuru ki. Is movement ke liye bhi ek naya flag tayyar kiya gaya. Isme
- Red aur Green stripes
- Union Jack (National Flag of The United Kingdom)
- Saptarishi ke Sitare (Big Dipper)
- Crescent aur Star
jaise symbols shamil the.
Ye design bhi permanent National Flag nahi ban saka. Lekin isne ye sabit kar diya ke azaadi ki tehreek me ek National Flag ki ahmiyat kitni zyada thi.
National Flag Itni Baar Kyun Badla?
Ye sawal bohot se logon ke zehan me aata hai ki Aakhir itne saare flags banane ki zarurat kya thi? Iske peeche kai reasons the.
Sabse pehli wajah ye thi ke Bharat us waqt British hukumat ke neeche tha. Har freedom movement apni pehchan banana chahta tha.
Doosri wajah ye thi ke us waqt kisi ek design par sab ki raaye muttahid nahi thi. Kisi design me zyada religious symbols the. Kisi me political movement ki pehchan nazar aati thi. Kisi me provinces ko represent kiya gaya.
Waqt ke saath ye samajh aaya ke agar Bharat ko azaad mulk banna hai to uska National Flag bhi aisa hona chahiye jo poore desh ki pehchan ban sake, na ke sirf kisi ek group ya movement ki. Isi soch ne aage chal kar 1921 ke design ki buniyad rakhi.
1921: Pingali Venkayya Ka Tiranga
Indian National Flag ki history me agar kisi ek shakhs ka naam sabse zyada liya jata hai, to woh Pingali Venkayya hain.
1921 me Andhra Pradesh ke Bezwada (aaj ka Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh) me Indian National Congress ka session ho raha tha. Isi conference me Pingali Venkayya ne Mahatma Gandhi ke samne ek Tricolour design pesh kiya. Ye design pehle ke tamam flags se kaafi mukhtalif tha. Isi design ne aage chal kar aaj ke Tirange ki buniyad rakhi.
Lekin…
Kya ye wahi Tiranga tha jo aaj hum dekhte hain?
Ya phir isme baad me bhi tabdeeliyan hui?
Aur Suraiya Tyabji aur Badruddin Tyabji ka naam history me kab aur kis wajah se aata hai?
