NATIONAL SYMBOLS (PART 3)
Good Morning everyone!!

Today we'll learn about the National Emblem and other national symbols.

National Emblem



The Lion Capital is the national emblem of India. It was adapted from the Ashokan Pillar at Sarnath. It has four lions (one is hidden from view) facing four directions. These lions back to back are mounted on a circular abacus has four Chakras and sculptures of a lion, a bull an elephant and a horse between them.
The words satyameva jayate (truth alone triumphs) are inscribed below the base of the emblem.
