AGRIEXPO 77

 भारतीय व्यापार मेला प्राधिकरण प्रगति मैदान, नयी दिल्ली में 13 नवम्बर से 13 दिसम्बर, 1977 तक ऐग्री एक्सपो-77 नामक एक राष्ट्रीय कृषि प्रदर्शनी का आयोजन कर रहा है। यह प्रदर्शनी अब तक आयोजित इस प्रकार की सभी प्रदर्शनियों से बड़ी होगी ।

कृषि भारत का सबसे बड़ा और व्यापक उद्योग है, जो देश की तीन चौथाई से अधिक जनसंख्या के लिए रोजगार के अवसर पैदा करता है। कृषि क्षेत्र का राष्ट्रीय आय में लगभग 50 प्रतिशत योगदान है और भारत के निर्यात व्यापार में इसका काफी बड़ा अंशदान है ।


ऐग्री एक्सपो-77 ग्रामीण क्षेत्र को उसकी पूर्णता में प्रदर्शित कर रहा है, जिसमें ग्रामीण क्षेत्र के सभी पहलुओं पर प्रकाश डाला गया है और उसकी अन्तरतम झांकियां भी प्रस्तुत की गई हैं। इस प्रदर्शनी के उस भाग की, जिसे हम इसकी हीर कह सकते हैं, व्यवस्था कृषि और सिचाई मंत्रालय ने की है। इस भाग में कृषि पद्धतियां, कृषि विज्ञान में किए गए अनुसंधान, विभिन्न उर्वरक और कृषि संबंधी रसायन और बीजों की सुधरी किस्में प्रमुख रूप से प्रदर्शित की गई हैं।

इस प्रदर्शनी में राज्य सरकारों, केन्द्रीय मंत्रालयों और विभागों, व्यापार संवर्द्धन संस्थाओं, फर्मों और संस्थानों ने भी भाग लिया है। चार बाहरी देश-अफगानिस्तान, हंगरी, जापान और सोवियत संघ भी इसमें भाग ले रहे हैं।

इस प्रदर्शनी के प्रमुख आकर्षण हैं- बैलगाड़ी, चौक और भारतीय ग्राम-झांकी ।

भारतीय डाक-तार विभाग इस राष्ट्रीय घटना की स्मृति में एक डाक टिकट जारी करते हुए बड़ी प्रसन्नता का अनुभव करता है।

The biggest ever national agricultural exposition, known as AGRIEXPO 77 is being organised by the Trade Fair Autho-rity of India at Pragati Maidan in New Delhi, from November 13 to December 13, 1977.

Agriculture is the largest and most widely dispersed industry of India, gene-rating employment opportunities for more than three-fourths of the country's popu-lation. The agricultural sector accounts for nearly 50 per cent of the national income and sustains a substantial portion of export trade of India.

AGRIEXPO 77 is projecting the rural sector in the totality, showing all its facets and providing glimpses into its innermost recesses also. The core complex is cons-tituted by the displays arranged by the Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation. Agricultural practices, research in agricul-tural sciences, fertilizer and other chemi-cals and improved varieties of seeds etc. are prominently featured here.

Other participants include State Govern-ments, Central Ministries and Depart-ments, trade promotion bodies, firms and undertakings and four foreign countries-Afghanistan, Hungary, Japan and U.S.S.R.

Among the major attractions of this Exposition are the Bullock Cart Square and the Rural India Complex.

The Indian Posts and Telegraphs De-partment is happy to commemorate this national event by bringing out a postage stamp. 

THE TIMES OF INDIA

The Times of India has been a chronichler of story of India, documenting every twist and turn of this great country's journey from bondage to freedom for the past 175 years, mainstreaming, even in its early days, distant areas of the country, bringing alive the story of the common man.

What started as the biweekly Bombay Times & Journal of Commerce is now a global institution. The paper has covered all the major events prior to independence. Once the Father of our Nation, Mahatma Gandhi burst on the national scene and transformed the complexion of our drive to freedom, the paper followed his every step. The valiant struggle of Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdev in 1931 found its place in the columns of this newspaper with the heroic trio's trial being reported virtually on a daily basis. Its reporting has time and again justified its motto: "Let truth prevail".

On 15th August, 1947, on the birth of a free India, the Times of India celebrated with the nation. The paper is a witness to many seminal experiences in our national history. Along this long journey, there have been times when this paper has experienced and mirrored pure joy - that of Cricket World Cup victories of India in 1983 and 2011, achievements in the field of science, Amartya Sen and Mother Teresa's Nobel wins, etc. Be it the news of India or of the important world events the paper has enriched the lives of the people of India by its candid reporting.

Today, the Times of India is a modern multi-media organization that celebrates economic liberalization, free market and a robust integration with the world order. Other than becoming a global institution, it has also embraced the newest in technology and has a bold footprint in virtually every corner of the country. Its internet edition is India's most popular news website today, and is available on mobile phones as well. The newspaper, under the flagship of India's largest media company, Bennett, Coleman & Co Ltd, has made an immense contribution to the life and times of the Indian subcontinent over these 175 years.

Department of Posts had celebrated the achievements of the paper by issuing a stamp on completion of 150 years of its existence in the year 1988. The Times of India has now completed 175 years by amalgamating the newspaper with cutting-edge digital technology.

Department of Posts is happy to issue a Commemorative Postage Stamp on the Times of India.

CHILDREN'S DAY

Image
The Indian Posts and Telegraphs Depart-ment has, since the year 1957, been bringing out special stamps to celebrate Children's Day each year. Various themes connected with the care and well-being of children have been depicted in them. The subject for the special stamp to be brought out on Children's Day on November 14, 1963, as recommended by the Inter-national Union for Child Welfare, Geneva, is "A National Policy for Children". Within the frame-work of this idea, on the suggestion of the Indian Council for Child Welfare, the Posts and Telegraphs De-partment has chosen the provision of mid-day meals to school going children-as the theme for this year's Children's Day stamp.

The Posts and Telegraphs Department is happy to bring out again, this year, a special postage stamp emphasizing the cause of child welfare. भारत INDIA TECHNICAL DATA Date of Issue      Thursd...

story of friendship of two nation india mauritius 75 year of diplomatic relation

Image
  India and Mauritius share a longstanding bilateral relationship that spans several decades. While formal diplomatic relations began 75 years ago in 1948, the arrival of Indians in Mauritius dates back to the early 18th century, when Indian artisans and masons were brought to Mauritius under French Colonial rule. In the 19th and early 20th century, about half a million Indian indentured workers were brought to Mauritius under British rule, out of which, about two-thirds settled down in Mauritius. The first batch of 36 indentured workers arrived in Mauritius on 2nd November 1834 and 2nd November is now celebrated every year as ‘Aapravasi Diwas’. Mahatma Gandhi visited Mauritius in 1901 and exhorted Indian workers to educate themselves and become politically empowered. During the struggle for independence from British rule, Indian and Mauritian leaders were in regular contact. Soon after India became independent, India deputed Shri Dharam Yash Dev as the first Indian Commissioner to...
