Saffron depicts the sacrifice, green depicts the fertility of the country and the white depicts peace. The chakra is called the dharmachakra, which represents the dharma of the country.

Question

How do I make the saffron color?

Community Answer

Adding yellow to red makes orange, and saffron is a shade of orange. You just have to add yellow a little at a time until you've got the shade you want.
