Explore the rich tapestry of India’s history and the origins of its iconic symbols in this beautifully illustrated book. Packed with rare pictures, photographs, and fascinating facts, this book unravels the stories behind India's National Emblem and Constitution.

Discover how Emperor Ashoka's rock and pillar edicts spread his message of non-violence, and how a symbol from these pillars became the proud emblem of modern India.
Follow the journey of archaeologists who unearthed Ashoka’s legacy, deciphering ancient scripts to bring his philosophy of ahimsa to light.
Learn about Surayya Tyabji, the young visionary from Hyderabad who first suggested using the lions from Ashoka's pillars as the emblem of India.
Meet the talented artists and calligraphers who meticulously illustrated the emblem and hand-lettered the Indian Constitution, blending artistry with national pride.
Dive into the turbulent yet inspiring days leading up to Independence in 1947, when the Constituent Assembly not only crafted India’s Constitution but also designed the symbols representing peace, justice, and fraternity on the global stage.

Rich in history and meaning, this book reveals the enduring significance of India's motto, Satyameva Jayate—Truth Alone Triumphs—and celebrates the spirit of a nation born from resilience and hope.
