INSTITUTION OF INDIA 
The United Service Institution of India (USI) was founded in 1870 by a soldier scholar, Colonel (later Major General) Sir Charles MacGregor. It was founded for ‘furtherance of interest and knowledge in the art, science and literature of the Defence Services.’ First housed in the old Town Hall at Shimla, in the foothills of the Himalayas, the Institution moved to the then Army Headquarters. In 1908 its own building was erected. The Institution was moved to Delhi in 1953, where it was located, till mid 1996, in Kashmir House on Rajaji Marg. The foundation stone for the new premises was laid on April 26. Its insignia has the motifs of all three armed forces in a greenish blue circle, which is surrounded by a border drawn like a belt, with its buckle at the bottom pointing downwards. The border has its name written on it. It is supported by laurels of leaves, buds and flowers on both the sides. This is crested by the National Emblem.
