Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation (MoSPI) launches new logo & mascot
MoSPI unveiled its new logo and mascot for the Ministry on 1.1.2026.
The launch marks a significant milestone in MoSPI’s efforts to modernise its institutional identity, enhance public outreach, and reinforce the role of official statistics in nation building.
Logo
The new logo of MoSPI shows the importance of data in development of the nation and reflects the Ministry’s commitment to facilitate India’s data-driven governance, transparency, and progress. Inspired by India’s rich heritage and modern statistical science, the logo carries the Ministry’s message of “Data for Development”.
The Ashoka Chakra in the logo represents truth, transparency, and good governance. The Rupee symbol (₹) at the centre highlights the vital role of statistics in economic planning, policy making, and national growth. The use of numbers and symbols reflects modern data systems and statistical science.
The upward growth bar shows progress and how reliable data supports sustainable economic growth. The colours saffron, white, green, and deep blue represent India’s national values—growth, truth, sustainability, stability, and knowledge—together reinforcing the trust and credibility of official statistics.
Mascot
MoSPI has introduced its new mascot, “सांख्यिकी”, a friendly and citizen-centric character created to make statistics simple, relatable, and engaging for people across the country. The mascot reflects MoSPI’s core values of accuracy, transparency, and data-driven governance, and presents data in a way that is easy for the general public to understand.
Designed as a trustworthy and intelligent figure, “सांख्यिकी” helps explain complex statistical concepts in a simple and visual manner. Serving as the public-facing identity of MoSPI, the mascot will be used across national sample surveys, awareness campaigns, educational content, digital platforms, and public events. Its introduction is an important step towards encouraging greater public participation in NSO surveys and strengthening trust in official statistics through a consistent and recognisable visual presence.
