POSTAGE STAMP ~ BHARAT ( INDIA ) ~ 2005 ~ 2127 ~ NARAYAN MEGHAJI LOKHANDE

The stamp prominently features a portrait of Lokhande, depicted in traditional attire with a turban, and  a mustache, reflecting his serious and determined character. The background subtly illustrates a group of laborers, symbolizing Lokhande’s lifelong commitment to advocating for the rights and welfare of workers. The text on the stamp, in both English and Hindi, identifies Lokhande and acknowledges his contributions to improving labor conditions in India. As a pioneer of the labor movement, Lokhande’s efforts, particularly in organizing mill workers in Bombay and securing basic rights like weekly holidays, have left a lasting impact on India’s social and labor reforms. This stamp serves as a tribute to his enduring legacy in the fight for workers’ rights.
