The national flag of India basically comes from the Swaraj flag, the one belonging to the Indian National Congress which was designed by Mr. Pingali Venkayya. Mahatma Gandhi had first proposed a flag for the Indian National Congress in 1921, to which Mr. Venkayya gave a design. The flag possessed a traditional spinning wheel as suggested by Gandhiji, which symbolized his goal of making India a self-reliant nation in order to fabricate their own clothes. This spinning wheel was a blue-colored one which had a plain saffron background. This was the very first design of the Indian National flag.
