He urged that on Independence Day, under Prime Minister Modi's "Har Ghar Tiranga" (Every Household Tiranga) campaign, every family should hoist the tricolor at their homes.

He described this as a major shift towards peace, security, and development in Bastar. Forest Minister Kashyap stated that under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, Union Home Minister Shah, and Chief Minister Sai, significant successes have been achieved against
