power. Spiralling upwards, it depicts the

Mascot
The most visible face of the
Commonwealth Games that is emblematic of all
the values of the country is the mascot called
Shera. Majestic, powerful and graceful Shera
carries within an implicit message….
One that brings into sharp focus the fragility
of the environment in which he lives. Shera
is the face of the Commonwealth Games and
will encourage all citizens of India to “Come
out and Play”, to come out and participate
and make the Games a success. |
