Shyam Lal Gupta
Shyam Lal Gupta, popularly known as Shyam Lal Gupta Parshad, (1896-1977) was an Indian poet and lyricist. A song written by him which featured in the 1948 film, ''Azadi Ki Raah Par'', (sung by Sarojini Naidu), has been accepted as the flag song of India and is sung every year during the flag hoisting ceremony at the Independence Day and Republic Day celebrations. A winner of the fourth highest civilian award of Padma Shri in 1969, he was honoured again by the Government of India in 1997 when a postage stamp was issued in his honour.
