India gained independence from Britain in 1947. For 69 years of independence was approved by the national symbols, which is dominated by images of animals with eloquent inscriptions in Hindi or English. Such a symbiosis of Indian culture with the British rather eclectic. Over the years, approved a new coat of arms of major cities and cultural regions. Important historical and tourist city practically did not change of its own symbolism. The emblem was approved in India and its flag.
Heraldry of India appeared before our era, due to the emergence of institutions of self-government in the cities. On the coats of arms of cities portrayed the local gods and city symbols. In the middle ages began to appear colored banners. In XIV-XV centuries became white and yellow flowers Delhi. It is necessary to allocate the pre-colonial period of development, which influenced urban symbols of independent India. Every city in India has its own symbol. So, the city Jodhpur is known for its sacred Falcon Garura, which was the emblem of the dynasty warriors-the Rajputs. The sacred Falcon was the symbol of the princes of the dynasty of Mysore. The symbol of the city of Udaipur has become the sun God Surya, the sacred horn used by the Maharajah of Travancore, the monkey king Hanuman became the emblem of Dholpur at the end of the eighteenth century.
In the middle ages did not exist any heraldic system in India. On the city coat of arms depicted the emblem of the rulers and sacred symbols. So, goodness and light personified, the sun, wisdom – snake, endurance, and power – elephant, development – the chariot, the oratory – a parrot.
Pictures of the national symbol of striking grandeur and beauty. This symbol of the nation is a sculpture of four lions (the lion crown Asahi) that are set on the abacus round shape. On the abacus shows four animals: a lion, pointing to the North, horse & ndash; South, elephant – & bull East – West. Shown in a circle (chakra) is a national symbol. Below you can see the words: “Only the truth wins out”. According to another version, the lions represent the three directions in geometry, and abacus is a symbol of the struggle, patience, and Union. The emblem of India was adopted on 26 January 1950.
On July 22, 1947, was held the constitutional Assembly, which approved the flag of India. The Indians called the flag "tricolor". It is no coincidence, as it is a rectangle with three horizontal stripes of equal width. The upper band has a “deep saffron color”, as they say, the Indians, the average – white with a picture of a wheel, and the bottom – green.
In India there is a special flag code, which strictly reglementary the use of the flag of the state, and for its production can only be used in special homespun cloth-Khadi.
