Answer 2

Answer:

1. Hockey is the national game of India. Hockey when declared as the national game was very popular. The game has seen a golden era during 1928-1956 when India won 6 consecutive gold medals in the Olympics. Hockey was considered the national game because of its unmatched distinction and incomparable talent at the time. At that time India had played 24 Olympic matches and won all of them.

2 . The Peacock is the national bird of India, commonly known as the Indian peafowl was declared the national bird of India in 1963 because it was entirely a part of Indian custom and culture. A peacock is a symbol of grace and beauty. Another reason why the peacock was chosen as the national bird was because of its presence across the country, so much so that even common people are familiar with the bird. Moreover, no other country had the peacock as its national bird either. The peacock fulfilled all these and hence became the national bird of India.

3. The national anthem of India is Jana Gana Mana. the Hindi version of an anthem that was originally composed in Bengali by Rabindranath Tagore. It was adopted as the national anthem of India on January 24, 1950. Since the Bengali song ‘Vande Mataram’ faced opposition from non-Hindu segments of society, the Jana Gana Mana was adopted as the national anthem of India.

4. The national flag of India is horizontal rectangular in shape and has three colours – deep saffron, white and green with Ashoka chakra (Wheel of Law) at its centre. It was adopted on July 22, 1947, during a meeting of the Constituent Assembly. It is also called a tricolor. The flag was designed by Pingali Venkayya

5. The Lion Capital of Ashoka at Sarnath is the national emblem of India. It consists of four Asiatic Lions standing back to back on a circular abacus. The abacus has sculptures of an elephant, a horse, a bull and a lion. These are separated by wheels in between. The national emblem stands on a full-bloomed inverted lotus flower.
