JAIPUR

Origin/meaning

The arms are - as those of all Rajput princes - five-coloured. The meaning of the sun I do not know.

The motto, 'Jato dharma stato jaya' translates as 'Foundation is the law, victory the fruit' and means : where there is righteousness there is victory or the righteous is always victorious.

The crest is a 'kuchnar'-tree. The supporters are a tiger and a horse.
