WAZIR RAM SINGH GOVERNMENT COLLEGE DEHRI (GC DEHRI) (WRGC DEHRI)

The emblem of Wazir Ram Singh Government College Dehri (GC Dehri) (WRGC Dehri) features a golden circle housing the brown motifs of an open book, a quill pen, a bell, a sword and a glowing and radiating flame of fire. The circle is ensconced by a brown circular border inscribed with the name and place of the college. The motto of the college in Sanskrit ‘शस्त्रे शास्त्रे च कौशलम्’ (derived from a Hitopadesha (Preface) ), which translates to ‘Skill in Weapons and Scripture’ is inscribed on a brown banner placed below the seal. The book serves as the foundation of the emblem, symbolising academic learning, higher education and the acquisition of knowledge; the quill pen symbolises writing, intellectual pursuits and the arts; the sword represents strength, courage, physical training and the readiness to defend; the bell symbolises awakening, divine presence, protection against negative energy and the passage of time; and the sun represents the light of truth, awakening and the ultimate enlightenment that disperses the darkness of ignorance. The golden colour symbolises wealth, prosperity, power, prestige and achievement; and brown signifies the earthiness, simplicity, stability, humility, warmth, reliability, endurance, timelessness and tradition.
