Well they do use symbols from kingdoms and empires prior to the Muslim rule. They won't use Mughal symbols for obvious reasons

Ours is a secular Nation that's why we don't use Symbols of things which have religion evolved in them & our current Symbol to is inspired from a secular Empire

Re adopt your Ottoman coat of arms, its probably the coolest coat of arms in history

This coat of arms is from 1882. Not too historic.

It should represent the Republican spirit. Maybe the six fundamentals of Atatürk.

Mauryans did not have a state religion?

It recognized all the religions of that time so i think that qualifies as 'Secular'

It had a state religion. The reason for choosing it's symbols had more to do with them being the only empire covering the Indian territory (and that which Indians consider lost) in it's near entirety other than the Mughals and the British Raj. The later two would not be chosen for obvious reasons.

Even the Mughals recognised all the religions of the time. Even ( the maligned) Aurangzeb had powerful lieutenants from other religion.

This has army and navy just update it to add air force and job done!

You want the Turks to fight with schimitars and swords? They have a good military. Their coat of arms should reflect the present, not the ancient past.

Let me rephrase myself the Empire never didn't enforced any official religion on other people & convert them by millions through the use of swords

And Mughals did? Can you quote a recognised historic record or a book which talks of a Mughal army attacking and converting a town of a few thousand (or a few hundred) by force?

The fact is that Mughal army itself was a mixed religion force with powerful generals from religion other than Islam.

Moreover, Muslims remained a minority in Even after Mughal rule but buddhists became a majority in just a single rule of Ashoka... Hmmm...

India is a pacifist nation. And we love antiques. Hence the difference.
