Dear Madam/sir,

This is regarding the promotion of philately at iconic post offices. As Postal Circles are the primary point of contact for customers, it is essential to gather inputs from the circles on the following key points:

Identification of Iconic Post Offices: We request the identification of post offices located at iconic, high-footfall locations. These post offices will serve as important hubs for promoting philately.

Engagement of Children and Youth in Philately: We are keen to explore effective ways to engage children and youth in philately. We kindly request feedback from schools and teachers interested in philately, focusing on how to make philately more engaging and appealing to young audiences, with the aim of increasing their participation.

Standardization of Philatelic Bureaus: We seek suggestions on how to standardize philatelic bureaus, transforming them into cultural hubs that effectively promote philately and its associated values. Additionally, we request suggestions on standardized philatelic ancillaries that will attract youth and children.

2. A prompt response with your valuable inputs will be greatly appreciated, as these are requested by the Honorable Minister of State for Communications. Therefore, it is requested to send your inputs at the earliest and latest by 07.01.2025.

Thank you for your cooperation.

With regards,

Yours Sincerely,

(Sachin Kishore)
