With the Raksha Bandhan festival round the corner, India

them to their destinations in minimum time period. The envelope is
a non-tear, water-resistant self-adhesive envelope with interplay of vivid
colors throughout. Reasonably priced at Rs 10, these special envelopes
will be available in all the post offices from Saturday, July 25th.
“These envelopes
bearing distinctive characteristics are an innovative attempt of India Post,
Mumbai, to keep the spirit of love and festivity unabated, even at times of
crisis and to strengthen the emotions of love and brotherhood amongst people”
said Ms Swati Pandey, Postmaster General, India Post, Mumbai. She further said
that all mails of Raksha Bandhan will be treated as first class mail, helping
