Rang De Veer All India Open Online Painting Contest is being organised by Honourpoint Foundation to create awareness about the fallen heroes of the armed forces. The deadline is August 15, 2024.
Honourpoint is an online memorial to honour , appreciate and remember the spirited and valiant sons and daughters of India who had the distinction of serving the country in “military uniform”, and are no longer with us. It is an endeavour to ensure that supreme sacrifices of our soldiers and their families do not fade away and are given their rightful place in our nation’s collective consciousness. It is a way for former comrades, colleagues, family members, friends and other countrymen, to show their profound gratitude to these brave hearts of India for their exemplary service to the nation.
Besides honouring war heroes, who defended the country at the cost of their lives and gave it all for our tomorrow, Honourpoint also attempts to acknowledge the great service of every Indian who had ever worn the “ military uniform” and having completed his/her journey of life has left us forever.
The purpose of the contest is to create awareness about the fallen heroes of our Armed Forces among children and ignite their artistic expression while fostering national pride.
