Dear @RahulEaswar ji, the flag conceived on April 13, 1921 was congress flag not the #Tricolor . Actually it had two colour representing Hindus and Muslims driven by missionary zeal of secularism Gandhi had. Congress was demanding only autonomy under British then. https://twitter.com/rahuleaswar/status/1381938911266529282
This is the flag which came in 1907 and unfurled by Madame Bhikaji Cama, a close associate of #Savarkar and was flown at Congress convention too.
The #Tricolour with Charkha came into being in 1929 and was interpreted by #Gandhi as:
The Red stood for the sacrifices of the people, white for purity, and green for hope.

Gandhi felt glad that the new design had more secular connotation than standard Hindu-Muslim thing.
By 1929, the deception of Khilafat was all out in open with #Ambedkar disclosing date by date how Hindus were misled into believing that #Gandhi wanted NCM for independence. Moplah had happened and Muhammad Ali’s letter asking Afghan Sultan to attack #Hindu India was public
