Twenty22
Twenty22 stands for the year 2022 when India will be 75 years old.The story of a young and energetic nation on the move,having her foundation in an ancient civilisation.From a glorious past to a glorious future.Our flag's Orange colour symbolizes courage and sacrifice, White stands for peace and truth, Green is for faith and chivalry and Blue represents the color of the sky and the ocean. The central motif is a Chakra, or Buddhist spinning wheel. The 24 spokes of the wheel correspond with the 24 hours of the day, implying that there is life in movement and death in stagnation.
A Scrapbook chronicling the magic of the present moment as the Winds of Change sweeps across INDIA,BHARAT,HINDUSTAN-The World's Largest Democracy.The Making of India which hopefully will have heartwarming stories of growth and development... on the lines of Chicken Soup for the Soul..ooops..err Rasam for the Hindustani Aatma. Jai Hind.
