India is one of the leaders in sustainable development and clean energy. With the Hon PM Narendra Modi-led government’s reform-oriented, environment-friendly policies, the country has time & again shown that sound environmental policies can pave the way to a sound economy.

At the UN Climate Change Conference COP26 in 2021, PM Shri Narendra Modi announced the ‘LiFE’, a mission to bring individual behavioural change at the forefront of the global climate action narrative. LIFE or Lifestyle for Environment along with the ‘Pro Planet People’ movement, aims to strengthen the efforts to overcome climate change.

LiFE will replace the prevailing 'use-and-throw’ thinking with an environmentally conscious lifestyle. The Mission is to create a global community of ‘Pro-Planet People’ (P3), who with their shared commitment will adopt and promote environmentally friendly lifestyles.

Individual Efforts Are Key to Climate Commitment

India's traditional knowledge strongly positions it to lead the narrative of addressing climate change. Like many other mass movements, LiFE aims to inspire climate action based on the mantra of ‘Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas’.

MyGov invites you to share your ideas and suggestions on how to adapt to an environmentally conscious lifestyle.

The first outdoor official flag hoisting of our National Flag took place on 15th Aug 1947, in Canberra, Australia at the residence of Sir Raghunath Paranype, the High Commission of India in Australia. Interestingly, because of the difference between the two countries, the hoisting was done around 4.3 hrs in advance there 🇮🇳 #AmritMahotsav #KnowYourTiranga #HarGharTiranga #MainBharatHoon #IndiaAt75 #ActionsAt75 #Trivia #IndianNationalFlag

देश के राष्ट्रीय ध्वज तिरंगे का मूल डिज़ाइन आंध्र प्रदेश के स्वतंत्रता सेनानी श्री पिंगली वैंकया जी द्वारा डिजाइन किया गया था। वह महात्मा गांधी जी के विचारों से प्रभावित थे, और उनके कहने पर उन्होंने राष्ट्रीय ध्वज को डिजाइन किया।

The National Flag, if made of paper, is waved by the general public, these flags should not be discarded on the ground. These should be discarded in private, keeping in mind the dignity of the National Flag.
