Brics India logo launched: Jaishankar bets on meeting ‘shared challenges’ as New Delhi assumes chair

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Tuesday launched the official logo for Brics India 2026 as the presidency falls on New Delhi this year. Along with the logo, India has launched an official website that will serve as a common platform for all the member countries.

Brazil passed over the presidency to India in 2025. Speaking at the launch event, Jaishankar said that the colours in the logo represent the colours of all member countries, while the symbol highlights the unity and equal representation among the group.
