In the State Emblem of India, which of the following animals appears to the right of the Dharma Chakra from the observer’s perspective ?
Bull
The State Emblem of India, adopted on 26 January 1950, is an adaptation of the Lion Capital of Ashoka at Sarnath; in the adopted form only three of the four lions are visible.
On the abacus below the lions, the Dharma Chakra (wheel) appears in relief in the centre, with a bull on the right and a galloping horse on the left as seen by the viewer, and the outlines of other wheels at the extreme ends.
The elephant is one of the four abacus animals on the original capital but is not seen in the front view of the emblem, and the lions sit above the abacus, not beside the wheel.
Hence, Bull.
