The logo & badge designed by Laxman Aley for Telangana police was officially approved by the chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao and DGP Anurag Sharma.
The Telangana police received as many as 2,000 logos, out of which, Laxman’s is finalised. We have posted earlier when the logo was finalized.
“It was a very tough time for me to design the logo. I am sure the symbol will portray the bravery and sincerity that the force shows in maintaining the law and order and protecting people’s rights. the logo has the shape of a shield that evidently represents a warrior’s first line of defence. It also accentuates positive energy in action, understanding emotions of citizens, strong will power to make decisions and enables a conducive environment for a peaceful life for citizens.
The logo, with four colours, adds boost to the Telangana police. The word ‘Police’ in red vibrantly conveys that the police is in support of enabling citizens with wholesome protection round-the-clock. Black denotes qualities like straight forwardness, authority and power. Blue represents objectives of the police like peace, tranquility, harmony, order, loyalty, cleanliness and confidence while gold symbolises unique traits like success, achievement, triumph, prosperity, quality, prestige, sophistication, value and elegance.
The four Asiatic lions, standing with their back together, with the adage ‘Satyameva Jayate’ signify power, courage, pride and confidence.
The logo also includes three essential principles — honour, duty and compassion — with the Telangana police intends to operate and offer its support to the citizens.
The nested leaves symbolise the noble intention of creating lasting relationships. Overall, the insignia personifies the shared vision of instilling a feeling of security, confidence and peace among citizens of the state.
When I showed the logo to the chief minister, I explained the importance of the design, colours and symbols. It is the second logo I have designed for Telangana and its police after the formation of the state,” Indian Express quoted Laxman.
