DARJEELING HILLS UNIVERSITY
DARJEELING HILLS UNIVERSITY The grey and orange circular emblem of Darjeeling Hills University (DHU) has the motif of Himalayas glowing in early morning sun supporting a line drawing of a flame of lamp in a circle. These are ensconced by a circular border with white outlines, on which the name of the university and its motto in Devanagari ‘उत्कर्षण अन्तर्वेशन नवोन्मेषण’ and ‘Excellence Inclusion Innovation’ are inscribed. The Himalayas represent the locale and the flame is an emblem of enlightenment, hope, life, truth and the regenerative power. The colour grey symbolises represents strength, longevity, unemotional, detached, balanced and impartial, power, influence, wisdom and intelligence.
