The 89th Inter-Parliamentary Conference

India Post issued this ₹1 stamp on 11 April 1993, the day before the conference opened in New Delhi. The Inter-Parliamentary Union was founded in 1889 by Frédéric Passy of France and William Randal Cremer of Britain, and has its headquarters in Geneva. India joined in 1949 and had hosted the 57th conference in 1969. At the time of this issue, India Post’s folder counted 116 member legislatures.
