Sir,
This has reference to the news item ‘Postal Deptt releases stamp on Ice Stupa’ DE Mar 19.
The stamp issued recognises the need to save the environment, and to honour those who work in this direction. The Ice Stupa of Ladakh is a symbol of dedication and innovation aimed at promoting the interest of mankind living on the brink of ecological disaster. It also underlines the fact that the man can do wonders in times of crisis. What is needed in this direction is mere sincerity to work for welfare of people.
The Ice of Stupa has the potential to inspire people at regional levels to meet the region specific needs. There is no one scheme solution for all problems, as problems and their solution vary from place to place.
The Postal Department deserves all appreciation for having taken note of this unique innovation, and releasing the stamp. This move will inspire all others involved in community work.
