The party advocates social conservatism and a foreign policy centred on nationalist principles. Its election symbol is blooming lotus in water. It is normally depicted in orange (saffron) and green. The party flag too uses the same colour scheme. Lotus symbolizes purity, divinity, Indianness and virtue.
