Description
Description
In this beautifully illustrated book filled with little known facts from Indian history, and pictures and photographs, read some unusual stories about our Republic: How Ashoka, the great king of ancient India, embraced peace and spread his message of non-violence through rock and pillar edicts, and how a symbol from these pillars became India’s National Emblem. How archaeologists dug up the edicts and deciphered the script and told the world about Ashoka and ahimsa. How Surayya Tyabji, a young woman from Hyderabad, first thought of using the lions from the Ashoka pillar in the emblem. How gifted artists and calligraphers illustrated the emblem and also hand-lettered and illustrated the Indian Constitution. As you discover these facts, also learn the deep meaning behind the words that make up India’s motto—Truth Alone Triumphs. And read about the tumultuous days leading up to India’s Independence in 1947, when the Constituent Assembly worked not only to give us a constitution, but also to create the symbols that would proclaim India’s place in the world as a proud, free nation founded on the principles of peace, justice and fraternity.
