Q. How many spokes are there in the Chakra (Wheel) in the Indian national flag?
Answer:
24
Notes: The wheel in the center of the Indian national flag has 24 spokes. The wheel is called the Ashoka Chakra because it appears on several edicts of Ashoka, including the Lion Capital of Ashoka. The 24 spokes represent 24 qualities of a person, or 24 religious paths made for humans. The spokes symbolize virtues such as chastity, health, peace, and sacrifice. The design of the national flag was adopted by the Constituent Assembly of India on July 22, 1947.
