GOVERNMENT COLLEGE KUKUMSERI (GC KUKUMSERI) The emblem of Government College Kukumseri (GC Kukumseri) features an image of a yellow Sonki flower (Senecio bombayensis or Jacobaea bombayensis) ensconced by a circular border inscribed with the name of the college in Devanagari and its motto in Sanskrit ‘उत्तिष्ठत जाग्रत प्राप्य वरान्निबोधत’ (Mantra 14, Valli 3, Chapter 1, Kathopanishad), which translates to ‘Arise, Awake and Stop Not till the Goal is Reached’. The Sonki is a bright yellow wild bloom native to the high-altitude rocky plateaus and cold Himalayan mountain ranges and valleys of the Lahaul region. It blooms extensively at the end of the monsoon season, carpeting the landscape in a golden-yellow hue. It serves as a visual anchor symbolizing the unique geographic heritage, growth, resilience, and beauty flourishing in a harsh environment.
