The town emblem was adopted on Jan 1st 2006 by Notice No 10 but there is no flag law. The white flag has a green, a blue and a red three color town emblem in the center. The town emblem depicts Mt. Nakui in green color and a fresh stream of River Mabechi in blue color. Two red circles represent rich harvests of the produce and the future vision of the developing town by a harmony in the people with the nature.
