Question

TodaySprint · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is Option A: Satish Gujral. The Department of Posts released a commemorative postage stamp on 3 August 2026 to mark the birth centenary of Satish Gujral, an Indian artist, sculptor, and architect. Satish Gujral was born on 25 December 1925 and contributed to painting, sculpture, mural art, and architecture as a prominent Indian modern artist. The commemorative stamp features a 2010 acrylic-on-canvas self-portrait of Satish Gujral, showing him seated with a paintbrush. The Satish Gujral stamp design was prepared by Anuj Kumar based on a proposal submitted by Raseel Gujral Ansal, daughter of Satish Gujral and co-founder of Raseel Gujral Art Legacy (RGAL). Two collectible sets were issued with the commemorative stamp, including a 25-stamp set and a Centenary Master Edition containing 100 stamps. Commemorative stamps are special postage issues released by India Post to honour important personalities, events, institutions, and national achievements. Philately is the study and collection of postage stamps, while commemorative philately focuses on special issue stamps. Bikaner House, New Delhi served as the venue for the unveiling and exhibition related to the Satish Gujral commemorative stamp.
