Dear Comrades,
Hemasri Bhavya wins first prize in the junior category at All India Stamp Design contest.
A young artist let her imaginations run wild with her brush and secured 
the first prize in the ‘junior’ category at the All India Stamp Design 
Contest conducted in November last year. 
U. Hemasri Bhavya, Std. IX of St. Ann’s School, NAD Kotha Road junction,
 was the only one whose painting was selected, from the three north 
coastal districts. 
Creative
She painted a pigeon and the sun on one side and an owl and mars on the other. 
“The postal delivery system in the world would be completing 286 years 
by that time. The pigeon and the sun depict delivery of mails during day
 and the owl is a representation of delivery of mails by night. By 2050,
 the postal department would be able to deliver letters to mars,” says 
Bhavya. 
Dexterity
The painting reflects not only her dexterity with the brush but also her imaginative abilities.
The tagline at the bottom of the painting reads in Hindi “Galli se 
galaxy tak, kahi bhi, kabhi bhi” (from the street to the galaxy, 
anywhere, anytime). It sums up how the Postal Department would be in 
2050.
