Ahead of the 15th August 2026 celebrations, the Jammu Municipal Corporation (JMC) has undertaken a special Tricolour illumination drive across the city, adding a vibrant patriotic spirit to Jammu ahead of Independence Day.
As part of the initiative, the bridge over the Suryaputri Tawi River has been beautifully illuminated in the colours of the National Tricolour. The striking illumination has enhanced the visual appeal of the riverfront and added a distinctive festive character to one of the prominent landmarks of Jammu.
Following the directions of JMC Commissioner Dr. Devansh Yadav, Tricolour lighting is being installed at the prominent locations across the city. The initiative is aimed at creating a festive atmosphere and showcasing the spirit of patriotism and national pride as the nation prepares to celebrate its 80th Independence Day.
The illuminated structures and public spaces are giving Jammu a vibrant and colourful appearance, particularly during the evening hours, while also creating an attractive ambience for residents and visitors.
Dr. Devansh Yadav said that the Tricolour illumination is a reflection of the city's collective pride in the nation and the spirit of Independence Day. He emphasized that prominent public spaces should reflect the festive spirit while maintaining the cleanliness, beauty and aesthetic appeal of the city.
The JMC has also appealed to citizens to actively participate in the Independence Day celebrations, respect the National Flag and contribute towards keeping the city clean and beautifully maintained.
