National Emblem

[jatt]

Dear friends,
we know that The Emblem of India is an adaptation from the Sarnath Lion Capital of Ashoka.But here is one strange question in my mind,asked by someone.That what is the Name of that Emblem,i mean to say that what we call to that if we need to tell it in English(Suitable or Reserved word for that).Thanks in advance.

It's just the National Emblem, or India's National Emblem. You cannot call it anything else.

From what i remember from school, the pillar on which it's found is called the Ashok Stambh.
But yea it's simply called our National Emblem.
