Forty Years of Freedom
India Post issued this 60 paise stamp on 15 August 1987. India Post’s folder calls the fortieth anniversary a watershed, when a generation too young to have taken part in the struggle for freedom took the torch from the generation before it. The year was marked under a National Committee chaired by the Vice-President of India.
