Citizens come together with the Tricolour to mark the ‘Seva Sankalp Abhiyan’
Mumbai, September 18, 2026:
A striking display of national unity and public participation was witnessed in Andheri, Mumbai, where citizens and participants came together to create a giant human formation depicting the vision of “Viksit Bharat” (Developed India).
The programme was organised as part of the ‘Seva Sankalp Abhiyan’, a government initiative aimed at connecting citizens with public welfare schemes and services and encouraging public participation.
According to the official communication issued by the Office of the Tahsildar and Executive Magistrate, Andheri, a taluka-level human-rangoli programme was organised on September 17, 2026, at 12 noon at the Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Technology, Juhu-Versova Link Road, H.D.F.C. Bank Marg, Four Bungalows, Andheri West, Mumbai.
Tricolour at the Centre, ‘Viksit Bharat’ at the Heart
The most eye-catching feature of the event was the large human formation created on the ground. Participants stood together in carefully arranged lines, forming the message of “Viksit Bharat”, while the Indian Tricolour was prominently displayed at the centre.
The aerial photograph of the formation captured the scale of participation and presented a powerful visual of people coming together around the idea of nation-building.
Participants from different groups joined the activity, turning the programme into a collective expression of unity, civic participation and national development.
A Message Beyond a Photograph
The human formation was more than a visual presentation. It conveyed the idea that the journey towards a developed India involves participation from citizens across different sections of society.
The official letter also called for the organisation of human rangoli based on public welfare schemes, national symbols and the concept of Viksit Bharat as part of the campaign.
‘Reels of India’ Adds a Digital Dimension
The programme was also covered through Reels of India, with a special song/reel created around the theme of Viksit Bharat.
Through photographs, video and music, the initiative brings the message of the programme to audiences beyond the physical venue. Such digital storytelling can provide an additional platform for documenting public participation and community activities.
Andheri Witnesses a Visual Symbol of Collective Participation
The sight of hundreds of participants standing together in formation, with the Tricolour at the centre, created a memorable scene at the Andheri venue.
From the official campaign communication to the giant human formation and its digital presentation through Reels of India, the event brought together government initiative, citizen participation and creative communication on one platform.
The aerial image of the formation now stands as a distinctive visual record of the ‘Viksit Bharat’ message presented in Andheri.
