Sanitation worker unfurls tricolor in Jamtara district
The New Indian Express Mangaluru
|January 27, 2025
FOR the past 25 years, only members of underprivileged sections of society have had the opportunity to unfurl the flag at Patel Chowk in Jamtara.
This tradition continued this year, as Vandana Devi, a local municipality sweeper, had the honour of hoisting the flag in front of the community.
Describing it as the best moment of her life, Vandana Devi said, "It was an honour for a sweeper like me to unfurl the flag before the people I serve. I never thought I would get this chance."
