Answer:
Every nation has a National Emblem which represents the authority of the State. Our National Emblem has three lions standing back to back. The lions are standing on a platform which has the Ashoka Chakro in the centre, a horse on the left and a bull on the right. Underneath the emblem the words “Satyameva Jayate” are written in Devnagri script. The words mean: Truth alone triumphs. This emblem can be seen on the coins, currency notes, postage stamps, government documents and publications. Our National Emblem has been taken from the Ashoka’s Lion Pillar at Sarnath. The pillar has four lions standing back to back, but only three can be seen from any angle. Our National Emblem was adopted on 26th January 1950

Answer:
⇒An emblem by definition is “a heraldic device or symbolic object as a distinctive badge of a nation, organization, or family”. The national emblem of a country is a seal that is reserved for official use by the state. For a country, the national emblem is a symbol of authority and represents the basis of its constitutional philosophy.
The national emblem of India is an adaptation of the Lion Capital atop the Ashoka Pillar of Sarnath, Uttar Pradesh, and is combined with the National Motto Satyameva Jayate. The Lion Capital was adopted as the National Emblem of India on January 26, 1950. It was a declaration of the newly acquired Republic status of India. The National Emblem is used for official purposes only and demands sincere respect from the citizens of India. It acts as the official seal for all national and state government offices and is the compulsory part of any letterhead used by the government. It features prominently on all currency notes as well as on diplomatic identification documents like the passports issued by the Republic of India. The national Emblem is the symbol of sovereignty for India.
