The national emblem of India is an adaptation of the Lion Capital of Ashoka at Saranath
The Horizontal tricolour flag of India has three colors -csaffron, white, and green
Symbolically saffron, white and green were chosen for the three bands, representing courage and sacrifice, peace and truth, and faith and fertility respectively.
In India, Republic Day honors the date on which the Constitution of India came into force on 26 January 1950 replacing the Government of India Act (1935) as the governing document of India.
A formal rendition of the national anthem takes fifty-two seconds
