Lion Capital of Sarnath is the now the national emblem of India, and its theme is Satyamev Jayate. It has been founded from Sarnath from the Ashok's pillar.

It was originally placed on the top of the Ashoka pillar at the important Buddhist site of Sarnath by Emperor Ashoka, in about 250 BCE during his rule over the Maurya Empire.
