The logo of NMA is taken from the Martand Sun Temple located in Anantnag (J&K). Now almost in ruins, this magnificent temple was built by King Lalitaditya Muktapida (724-761 CE). Our motto"Satya Dharmaye Drishtaye" forms the last quarter(pada) of the 15th mantra of the lsopanishad meaning "the seeker of the truth may see it". As the motto of the National MonumentsAuthority, it is very appropriate and meaningful.
