The Chief Minister said the government is introducing an official logo to give the national capital a distinct identity, reflecting its democratic values, technological progress, and citizen participation.
"Until now, Delhi has not had an official logo, whereas most states in the country have their own emblem that represents their unique identity. Our government began work in this direction as soon as it came to power, so that Delhi, too, could have an identity befitting its dignity. The objective of this initiative is to establish Delhi as a strong brand that conveys the message of democratic values, technological progress, and citizen participation," the post read.
