Explanation

Pingali Venkayya, an Indian freedom fighter from Andhra Pradesh, designed the Indian national flag in 1921. The design was later modified by the flag committee, and the current version was adopted in 1947. Mahatma Gandhi suggested the addition of the charkha (spinning wheel), which was later replaced by the Ashok Chakra. Sister Nivedita and Annie Besant were not involved in the flag's design.
