UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY DESIGNATED ‘1965’ AS THE YEAR OF INTERNATIONAL CO-OPERATION TO EMPHASISE THE NECESSITY OF CORDIAL RELATIONSHIP AMONGST NATIONS. IN COMMEMORATION OF THE YEAR, A STAMP WAS ISSUED FEATURING CLASPED HANDS FRAMED BY OLIVE WREATH SYMBOLISING INTERNATIONAL CO-OPERATION.

Stamp Information	:	INTERNATIONAL CO-OPERATION YEAR 1965 In a memorable address to the XVIth Session of the UN General Assembly on November 10, 1961, the Late Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru had suggested that the Assembly might consider devoting a year to International Co-operation to emphasise the positive aspects of co-operation rather than the conflicts and division of the world. Enthusiastically received, this suggestion culminated in the unanimous adoption by the General Assembly of a resolution on November 21, 1963, designating 1965, the 20th year of the United Nations as the International Co-operation Year. A UN Committee for the ICY was then constituted, with India among its 12 members, to draw up and co-ordinate plans for the ICY. Its recommendations included the issue of commemorative stamps, an ICY calendar of month wise activities, publicity and exchange of information on all aspects of international co-operation, and formation of National Committees for the International Co-operation Year. An Indian National Committee for the ICY was set up under the Presidentship of the Minister of External Affairs, Sardar Swaran Singh, and including representatives from various sections of the community, for the over all planning and co-ordination of activities to be undertaken during 1965. India's plans and projects for the observance of the ICY include the erection of an ICY Memorial, a documentary film on "Twenty Years of United Nations", a pamphlet on "India and International Co-operation", an all India competition for an ICY poster, a mock UN General Assembly, meetings, seminars, lectures, special AIR features, ICY issues in journals, welfare projects by all India voluntary organisations, observance of special UN days in educational institutions, etc. The celebrated exponent of Carnatic music, Smt. M.S. Subbulakshmi will give a special performance in September 1965 at the headquarters of the United Nations in New York in Celebration of the 20th anniversary of the United Nations. The Posts and Telegraphs Department has pleasure in commemorating the International Co-operation year by issuing a special postage stamp on the twentieth anniversary of the signing of the Charter of the United Nations. The motif of the stamp consists of the ICY symbol of two joined hands framed by olive wreaths and the inspiration "International Co-operation Year 1965".

NINE INDIAN MEN CLIMBED MOUNT EVEREST IN SUCCESSIVE ATTEMPTS BETWEEN 20TH AND 29TH MAY 1965. THIS ISSUE HIGHLIGHTS THE HISTORIC ACHIEVEMENT OF THE INDIAN MOUNT EVEREST EXPEDITION TEAM OF 1965. THE STAMP DEPICTS TWO CLIMBERS ON THE SUMMIT WITH INDIAN TRICOLOUR.

Stamp Information	:	INDIAN MT. EVEREST EXPEDITION-1965 As a tribute to the glorious success of the Indian Expedition to Mount Everest the Indian Posts and Telegraphs Department will bring out a special commemorative stamp on the 15th August 1965- the 18th anniversary of India's independence. Nine men reached the 29,028 ft. high summit of the Everest in four successive attempts made within ten days in May this year. This is the success story of the third Indian Mt. Everest Expedition, doing credit to all its nineteen members and bringing glory to India. "To Lt. Cdr. M.S. Kohli, the leader, and to everyone of his members and high altitude Sherpas, to humble Nepalese porters, and to all those in the ordnance factories and other establishments in India who helped to equip the Expedition is due to credit for success and our pride in it", commented a national daily. It added," And to-day, because of that success, India takes an honoured place in the exclusive club of international mountaineering and we all are a little taller." By this accomplishment, a new page in the epic of the Everest has been inscribed, a page worthy of the people for whom the Himalayas have always had a deep significance, whose, history and way of life have for the countries been influenced by the Adobe of Eternal Snow. Since 1852, when peak XV, later to be named the Everest, was found to be highest not only in the Himalayan range, but also in the whole world, this tallest pinnacles on Earth has presented a supreme challenge to man. To date, there have been as many as fifteen full-fledged expeditions to Mount Everest both from the Tibet and the Nepal side, and four reconnaissances and three solo attempts. A New Zealander, Sir Edmund Hillary, and an Indian, Tenzing Norgay, as members of the 1953 British Expedition, led by Sir John Hunt, were the first ever to reach the summit of the Everest on May 29 that year. Of the fifteen expeditions, India mounted three. The 1960 Indian Expedition, under Brig. Gyan Singh, was compelled to withdraw when only 700 ft. from the goal owing to bad weather. The second Indian attempt in 1962, under the late Major John Dais, met the same fate when just 400 ft. below the summit. The third Indian Expedition's initial attempt, towards the end of April this year, was also thwarted by high velocity of winds and blizzards and it had to return to the base camp and wait for over two weeks for better weather. Towards the end of May, however, the efforts of the expedition were crowned with remarkable success when Mount Everest was scaled in four successive attempts. On May 20, 1965 the expedition became the first All-Indian team to reach the summit when two of its members, Capt. A.S.Cheema and Nawang Gombu climbed the peak. This was the second time that Nawang Gombu had climbed the Everest- a record worthy to be proud of. Two days later, on May 22, Sonam Gyasto and Sonam Wengyal reached the summit becoming respectively the oldest (42) and the youngest (23) climbers to stand on top of the Everest. Again, on May 24, C. P. Vohra and Ang Kami reached the top. On May 29, 12 years to the day from the first ascent of Everest, the fourth and last summit party with Capt. H.P.S. Ahulwalia, H.C.S. Rawat and Phu Deorji made the summit. This...

FORMED IN 1934 AS A SUCCESSOR TO INTERNATIONAL TELEGRAPH UNION AND NOW A SPECIALISED AGENCY OF UNO, THE INTERNATIONAL TELECOMMUNICATION UNION IS THE WORLD ORGANISATION FOR PROMOTING TELECOMMUNICATIONS, ENLARGING INTERNATIONAL CO-OPERATION AND TO FORMULATE TELEGRAPH, TELEPHONE AND RADIO REGULATIONS. THE STAMP FEATURES THE ITU EMBLEM AND THE SYMBOLS

Stamp Information	:	The international Telecommunication Union celebrates its centenary on Monday 17, 1965. The oldest of international organisations, it is also perhaps the most successful. The founding of the International Telegraph Union in Paris a hundred years ago marked the beginning of a century of unbroken (except during the two world wars) and harmonious collaboration among the member countries for promoting the development, efficiency and unity of the Telecommunication services the world over. Briefly, the main objectives of the I.T.U. are to promote the telecommunication development through international co-operation, ensure rational use of telecommunications, enlarge technical facilities, improve efficiency, formulate telegraph, telephone and radio regulations to ensure uniformity in procedure and tariff, disseminate information and to act as a body responsible for implementing the terms of International Conventions. The organisation of the Union consists of the Plenipotentiary Conference which has the power to revise the International Telecommunication Convention; the Administrative Conferences which consider specific telecommunication matters; and the Administrative Council with twenty five elected members of the Union which supervises the management and controls the budget of the ITU and provides the link with the United Nations Organisation and its allied agencies. The following are the permanent organs of the Union (a) The General Secretariat of the Union with headquarters at Geneva. The Secretariat is the liaison between the Telecommunication Administrations of the world, provides the administrative and financial services of the Union and publishes, among other valuable documents, the monthly, "Telecommunication Journal". (b) The International Frequency Registration Board. This is an expert body of the elected members from different countries, giving help and advice in the assignment and utilisation of radio frequencies to ensure economic and co-ordinate use of frequency spectrum by the member Administrations. (c) The International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee which is devoted to the study of technical, operation and tariff questions related to telegraphy and telephony and makes recommendations thereon. (d) The International Radio Consultative Committee which is a similar body investigating and advising on technical and operation matters connected with radio, including the new problems of space communication. The new and developing countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America look up to the ITU for many of their emergent needs like expert technical advice and assistance, grant fellowships to telecommunication engineers, their training and execution of U.N. Special Fund Projects. A member of the Union ever since 1869, India has been actively associated with it over the last ninety-six years. Particularly after the independence, she has made significant contribution as an elected member of the Administrative Council and as a nominee in a number of technical study groups. It is natural that India sets great store on the fascinating prospect of the countries of the world getting linked up in an international telecommunication network through a worldwide communication system; in bringing this about, the role of the ITU, which has set a fine example of what international co-operation can achieve, cannot be over-emphasised. Having sponsored the observance of the International Co-operation Year, India considers it a fitting coincidence that the year marks also the centenary of the ITU. The Indian Posts and Telegraphs Department is happy to bring out a special stamp on May 17, 1965 to commemorate the centenary of the International Telecommunication Union.

JAMSETJI NUSSERWANJI TATA (1839-1904), IS REMEMBERED AS THE PIONEER OF INDIA’S INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT. HE ESTABLISHED TATA IRON AND STEEL CO. AND PIONEERED THE DEVELOPMENT OF HYDROELECTRIC POWER IN THE COUNTRY. THIS ISSUE HONOURS HIM. THE STAMP FEATURES HIS PORTRAIT ALONG WITH A LADLE POURING MOLTEN STEEL AND ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION TOWERS.

Stamp Information	:	On the 7th January 1965, the Posts and Telegraphs Department will issue a commemorative stamp to honour Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata in recognition of his services in the industrialisation of the country. Jamsetji N. Tata was born a little more than 125 years ago on the 3rd March, 1839 and was educated at the Elphinston College, Bombay. He joined his father's trading firm in 1858 and had an outstandingly successful business career during which he made a massive contribution to India's Industrial Development. He set up cotton mills in Bombay and Nagpur and founded the Tata Iron & Steel Company, which is among the largest integrated steel mills in the world. He planned the utilisation of hydroelectric power, which resulted in the formation, after his death, of the Tata Power Companies, which supply electric power to Bombay city and the surrounding areas. Jamsetji Tata's contribution to India's industrial advance was monumental. Even when the country was under foreign rule he had the vision to realise the importance of a modern industry for giving a better life to the people. His activities were many-sided. He introduced sericulture into India, founded the Indian Institute of Science in Banglore and applied scientific techniques to the cultivation of cotton and other crops. He freely donated his wealth to worthy causes and is best remembered for the munificent endowment, which he established for the advanced professional and technical training of Indian's abroad. He was a man of high social ideals and was a pioneer in his enlightened attitude towards labour. Jamsetji died on the 19th May, 1904. In the words of our late Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru he was, "one of the great founders of modern India" and there cannot be a more succinct yet fuller tribute.

THE STAMP FEATURES VISAKHAPATNAM PORT AND FREIGHTER ‘JALAUSHA’ BUILT AT HINDUSTAN SHIPYARDS, THE BIGGEST SHIP BUILDING AND REPAIRING FACILITY IN THE COUNTRY. THIS ISSUE COMMEMORATES THE NATIONAL MARITIME DAY HIGHLIGHTS THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF INDIA IN THE FIELD OF SHIPPING.

Stamp Information	:	With a coastline of over 3500 miles, her extensive maritime trade and the strategic position, which she occupies in the Indian Ocean, the need for India having an adequate maritime fleet cannot be over-emphasised. The development of Indian merchant shipping has accordingly received the constant attention of the Government after 1947. At the time of Independence the total Indian tonnage stood at 2,49,000 GRT and since then concreted efforts have brought the Indian tonnage to 1.4 million GRT. Since 1951, the expansion of Indian shipping has been governed by the targets and the financial allocations given in the successive Five-Year-Plans. In spite of numerous handicaps, such as competition from foreign shipping companies which were firmly entrenched in the industry and the foreign exchange difficulties inherent in the purchase of ships from abroad, it is significant that whatever targets were fixed for this industry have not only been fully achieved but exceeded in the Third Five Year Plan. Thus, from a modest beginning of a fleet with a quarter of a million GRT, India crossed one million - ton mark by the end of 1962 and thus attained majority. her fleet, which ranges today from small coastal vessels of about 500 to 1000 GRT, plies on various trading routes, particularly in the India-U.K.-Continent, India-Persian-Gulf, India-Australia, India-Far East, India-USSR and India-USA trades. The fleet is both modern and balanced and has all types of vessels under the Indian flag, such as, tankers, tramps, liners, bulk carriers, passenger ships and coastal vessels. India has now rightly taken her place among the maritime nations of the world and occupies presidentship of the Assembly of Inter - Governmental maritime Consultative Organisation which is a specialised agency of the United Nations. The Posts and telegraphs Department is glad to issue a special postage stamp to mark the achievements of the Indian Shipping on the occasion of the 2nd National Maritime day falling on April 5, 1965.
