This specialised museum within the national postal headquarters near Connaught Place preserves the history of India's postal service through stamps, first-day covers and rare philatelic material. Its galleries trace the evolution of communication from early runners and mail routes to modern issues, with commemorative and definitive stamps spanning the colonial and independent eras. Original artwork and printing artefacts show how stamps are produced. A focused institution, it appeals to collectors and curious visitors alike.
