Modi's coat to turban – his attire has always been very practical. Because, the underlying meaning of his choice of clothing is quite dark. Even on Independence Day, he did not change. This time, special importance is given to Modi's turban.

On this day, Modi was wearing a milk-white kurta-pyjama. Wear a brown hand cut jacket with it. There was a tricolor square in the pocket. And on the head was a turban of red and maroon bandani cloth. It has white, yellow, green dots keeping in mind Independence Day. All in all, this turban is bright enough.

Bandhani comes from the Sanskrit word 'bandhi'. Bandhani is usually done on cotton or silk fabric. Craftsmen pull small pieces of cloth with special tools and tie them tightly with thread. Then the cloth is dipped in colored water. It becomes one color in one place. This method is tie and dye on the fabric. It is known as 'Bandhani'. Usually 'Bandhani' works in Rajasthan and Gujarat. Modi also chose that 'Bandhani'. It is believed that this type of 'Bandhani' work turban was chosen keeping in mind the richness of the handicrafts.

But this is not the first time. Earlier too, Modi wore a red turban at the Independence Day ceremony in 2014. There was a golden design.
