World Post Day Logotype
World Post Day is celebrated each year on 9 October. The event was declared by the 1969 Universal Postal Congress in Tokyo as a means to mark the anniversary of the Universal Postal Union's (UPU) creation in 1874.
The purpose of World Post Day is to bring awareness to the Post's role in the everyday lives of people and businesses, as well as its contribution to global social and economic development.
As a result, the UPU's member countries are encouraged to organize their own national activities to celebrate the event, including everything from the introduction or promotion of new postal products and services, to the organization of open days at post offices, mail centres and postal museums.
For countries participating in the UPU International Letter-Writing Competition, national winners are often honoured on 9 October.
UPU participation
World Post Day Poster-:
The UPU helps facilitate awareness with its World Post Day by designing and distributing posters for display across the globe. In 2016, the UPU launched a new poster for the 2016–2018 period.
Although World Post Day is not guided by a particular theme, the UPU's latest poster design embodies the UPU's three strategic pillars: innovation, integration and inclusion.

Just as Posts innovate to remain relevant in the changing communication landscape, the UPU has chosen innovative designs for the new World Post Day poster. Using Pantone colour inks specially layered onto high-quality Swiss–made paper to produce the blue and gold design, the physical elements of the poster represent innovation unto themselves.
The emblem's design represents the two remaining pillars, integration and inclusion. The crisscrossed arms and layered colours act to show the integration of knowledge and processes, enabling seamless and affordable services for all. The intertwined design was inspired by the Celtic knot, which itself has Persian roots. Finally, the clasped hands represent how the Post connects and includes people around the world.
Post :: The largest Mode Of Communication
Though, we are living in an age of emails, mobile phones and faxes etc but it is the postal service that has remained the largest mode of communication in India. This particularly holds true for last century when people relied on snail mail to send messages, drafts, cheques and other important information. Indian postal service owes its origin to British who introduced mailing services in India. With the arrival of new age technologies and new modes of communication, the usage of traditional mailing services has reduced but it is still the primary source of communication in semi-urban and rural India.
Postal Service- A Mode To unite India ::
Indian postal service is an integral part of India. Whether it’s an army man sending letters to his family from the frontiers or a farmer dispatching money to his son receiving education in a town, postal services have always helped in uniting India and its population. It is not easy to operate postal services in India with such diversity in culture, tradition and difficult geographical terrains. Yet, the Indian postal department has kept serving the nation with admirable zeal and enthusiasm. It shows a different facet of the nation that binds us and brings us close to one another.
National Postal Day is celebrated on October 10 every year. Indian postal department is serving the country for over 150 years and that’s no mean achievement. Indian postal celebration is an extension of World Post Day. Universal Postal Union (UPU) was founded in Berne in 1874. The occasion is celebrated by countries all over the world. New postal products and services are introduced on this day. Other activities like open days at post offices, mail centres and postal museums, conferences, seminars and workshops, and cultural, sport and other recreation events are also organized on National Postal Day.
More than 80 Posts have ordered some 70,000 posters in seven available languages: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Russian and Chinese.
In addition to the three-year poster campaign, UPU Director General Bishar A. Hussein also releases an annual message to celebrate the event. The Director General's 2021 World Post Day message will be released shortly.
Well these are the salient features of the World Post Office Day and this day is marked as an important day because we connect- still with the world through the post office
With the advent of technology and the changing time, many a things have changed and the communication is so fast that Post Offices have started losing their importance but still, and STILL Post Offices do maintain a special quo of the status and it always would remain and maintain the same status quo.
Well , that is it and That sums it all.
Regards and Thanks
