01-01-2017: Ganesh Pol Happy New Year A commemorative postage stamp

New Year Celebrations believe to replenish all the joys in life and help to keep the spirits glowing and undaunted. With the New Year comes not only the opportunity to look back at the past year with the warmest of memories and to gain from it, beautiful pearls of wisdom but also the sense of resolution to make the lives of everyone around positively affected. Every year Department of Posts has been wishing everybody by bringing out different issues during New Year, either as New Year issue or Season’s Greetings. The first stamp depicts the Ganesh Pol. Ganesh Pol is located in the main palace of the Amber Fort. It is strategically important as entry through this gate was exclusive to the kings to get into their private chambers. Ganesh Pol is fusion of Mughal and the Rajput architectural styles, famous for its ornamental archways and the fine latticework. Department of Posts is pleased to issue a set of 12 stamps on the Occasion of New Year.
