The Indian flag was designed as a symbol of freedom.
The late Prime Minister Nehru called it "a flag not only of freedom for ourselves, but a symbol of freedom to all people."
The flag is a horizontal tricolor in equal proportion of - Deep Saffron (for courage, sacrifice and the spirit of renunciation) on the top, - White (for purity and truth) in the middle and - Dark Green (for faith and fertility) at the bottom.
In the centre of the white band, there is a wheel in navy blue to indicate the Dharma Chakra, the wheel of law in the Sarnath Lion Capital.

The following is Rabindranath Tagore's English rendering of the stanza:
Thou art the ruler of the minds of all people, dispenser of India's destiny. The name rouses the hearts of Punjab, Sind, Gujarat and Maratha, of the Dravid and Orissa and Bengal; it echoes in the hills of the Vindhyas and Himalayas, mingles in the music of the Yamuna and Ganga and is chanted by the waves of the Indian Sea. They pray for thy blessings and sing thy praise. The salvation of all people is in thy hand, thou dispenser of India's destiny. Victory, victory, victory to thee.
