Every Independence Day, people of the country look up to the Prime Minister unfurling the tricolour. The PM’s choice of attire on this day is also something that never goes unnoticed. India’s first PM Jawaharlal Nehru still looks fresh in our memories with a rose pinned to his jacket. Manmohan Singh too remained consistent with his trademark powder-blue turban. Atal Bihari Vajpayee donned a coloured pagdi each time. But it’s PM Modi who undoubtedly has everyone talking about what he chooses to wear. This year, PM Modi has stepped out in his traditional white Kurta with a gray Nehru Jacket and a sleek stole. For his turban this time, the PM opted for a saffron safa with a long pink trail.

The Prime Minister’s sartorial choices have always stood out, with his turban meriting a special mention each time. In 2020, PM Modi wore a cream-coloured traditional kurta and churidar but what stood as the star of the attire was his orange and yellow safa (Rajasthani headgear) with a long trail. (Source: PIB)
