Karnataka Postal Circle to roll out more Philately Passports in four districts including Bengaluru on October 10 and 11

If you are a travel enthusiast, biker, philatelist or someone looking to develop new hobbies, then October is the month for you. The Karnataka Postal Circle, under the Department of Posts, will launch a new set of Philately Passports in four districts, including Bengaluru, Mysuru, Mangaluru and Belagavi, on October 10 and 11 to mark National Postal Week.

Speaking to The Hindu , a senior official from the Karnataka Postal Circle said, “We received an overwhelming response in Bengaluru from families, travel enthusiasts, bikers and others as we sold 1,000 Philately Passports in a single day. Similarly, we received a good response in Mysuru, Mangaluru and Belagavi. But most who were not aware that these passports are available in these districts queued up in front of the General Post Office in Cubbon Park. They purchased and sent these to their family members via post.”
