With its extensive network of 1.5 lakh post offices, the Department of Posts has made the "Har Ghar Tiranga" Program accessible to every citizen of the nation. India Post has sold more than one crore national flags to citizens in just 10 days through post offices and online means. The Department is selling these flags for a very reasonable price of Rs. 25 (US$ 0.31). More than 1.75 lakh flags have been ordered online by the public via the ePost Office service, thanks to the Department's free doorstep delivery to any address in the country for online sales.

4.2 lakh postal workers all around the nation have eagerly spread the "Har Ghar Tiranga" message in cities, towns, and villages, as well as in border regions, LWE Districts, and mountainous and tribal areas. Twitter and Facebook have both been heavily utilised to communicate the program's message to citizens with access to the internet.
