International Labour Organisation - 50th anniversary 1969

National plans in an integrated regional whole. The framework of the Plan when approved by the Asian advisory committee at Singapore in 1966 was hailed as "dynamic and positive concept". The International Labour Organisation was celebrating its 50th anniversary that year, and it is a happy coincidence that the celebrations fall in the Gandhi Centenary Year. Gandhiji's views on Social justice, equality of opportunities and dignity of labour and the sanctity of human rights are well known. The Posts and Telegraphs department is happy to bring out a special postage stamp to commemorate the 50th anniversary of this world organisation who’s activities are of great significance to India and other Asian countries.


The design of the stamp is horizontal and depicts an I.L.O. emblem at the left side in triangle on Silhouette background of big letters "I.L.O." at the right side two hands are shown with spanners in action on the background of the Globe.
