Badge

The rectangle alludes to a brick, and the square to a punch-marked coin. Together, they embody a legend about the generosity and sense of justice attributed to King Agrasen, whereby newcomers to his kingdom would be given one brick and one coin by all inhabitants to help them establish themselves. These themes are important to Mr. Agarwal’s family, as shown in his own philanthropic activities, his sons’ careers in the law and his daughters-in-law’s careers in medicine and education.
