The Indian Historical Records Commission (IHRC) has adopted a new logo and motto. The logo signifies the theme and uniqueness of IHRC entirely. The pages in the shape of lotus petals represent IHRC as the resilient nodal institution for maintaining historical records. The Sarnath pillar in the middle represents India's glorious past. Brown as the colour theme reinforces the organisation's mission of preserving, studying and honouring India's historical records. The motto translates as "Where history is preserved for the future." The motto holds great significance for the IHRC and its work.
