| GOVERNMENT COLLEGE, MATOUR (GC MATOUR) |
The emblem of Government College, Matour (GC Matour) features a yellow circle housing the motifs of an orange rising sun, an orange abstract human figure with raised hands, a blue open book, a traditional lamp with flame and a pair of blue hands holding these motifs. The name and place of the college is written around the circle. This assemblage is displaced on a blue decorative circle. The motto of the college in Sanskrit ‘तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय’ (Yajnavalkya, 1.3.28, Pavamana Mantra, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad) meaning ‘From Darkness Lead Me to Light’ is written on a yellow banner placed below the seal. The rising sun is a universal symbol of energy, life and the light of knowledge dispelling ignorance; the human figure represents human growth, vitality, self-actualisation and the celebration of life through learning; the book represents formal learning, academic excellence and the infinite storehouse of human knowledge; the glowing flame of the lamp represents the inner awakening, wisdom and moral uprightness that should accompany academic knowledge; and the supporting hands represent care, nurturing and the supportive ecosystem provided by the college.
