Collect, Connect, Celebrate: The Festival of Stamps
This year, as part of the festival, a special cover was released in honor of Jogeshwari Misal, recognizing its contribution to Maharashtra’s culinary heritage. The event was graced by prominent personalities, including Hon. Shri Pandit Satish Vyas, renowned Santoor player, and Shri Sachin Kishore, DDG (Philately), Dak Bhavan, New Delhi, who helped make the occasion memorable. The cover was unveiled by Shri Sachin Hargude and Shri Nitin Hargude, the founders of Jogeshwari Misal, in the presence of Shri Ramchandra Jaybhaye, Postmaster General of Pune Region, and Dr. Suruchi Dhoot Mohta, a noted musician and composer.
The release of the special cover was not only a celebration of Jogeshwari Misal’s success story but also a recognition of the role that food plays in preserving cultural traditions and bringing people together. The cover features vibrant designs and imagery that capture the essence of Jogeshwari Misal, adding to the rich tapestry of stamps celebrating India’s cultural treasures.
Jogeshwari Misal: A Taste of Maharashtra's Food Tradition
Maharashtra’s food culture is full of rich and flavorful dishes that reflect the state’s diverse traditions. One of the most loved dishes is Puneri Misal, a spicy curry made from sprouted beans, topped with crunchy snacks (farsan), onions, and coriander, and served with pav (bread). It’s a symbol of Maharashtra’s vibrant street food scene. Among the many types of Misal, Jogeshwari Misal stands out for its unique flavors and the hard work of its founders. Jogeshwari Misal started in 2014 in Kesanand, a small village near Pune. The shop was named after the village’s deity, Shri Jogeshwari Mata. Thanks to its authentic taste, it quickly became popular in the area and beyond. What began as a small effort by Shri Sachin Hargude and Shri Nitin Hargude has now grown into a huge success, with over 200 branches across Maharashtra and Karnataka.
The secret of Jogeshwari Misal’s success lies in its authenticity. The recipe comes from the traditional cooking methods of Kesanand village, keeping the original flavors alive. The founders’ dedication and hard work have made Jogeshwari Misal a favorite for many and a must-try dish for visitors in Maharashtra.
Celebrating India’s Heritage - The Festival of Stamps

The Role of Stamps in Connecting Communities
Stamps have a special way of bringing people together, no matter where they come from. The “Festival of Stamps” is a great event that unites collectors, hobbyists, and the general public. Stamps can cross borders, letting people share and enjoy India’s rich culture and diversity. For instance, the special stamp cover for Jogeshwari Misal isn’t just about celebrating Maharashtra’s famous dish but also highlights the bond between people who love food, culture, and stamp collecting.
The festival also includes stamp exhibitions and workshops, offering a space for people to share ideas, learn new things, and connect with others. Whether it’s learning how to start a stamp collection or discussing the story behind a stamp, the event encourages teamwork and knowledge sharing. These shared interests create a sense of community and bring people closer together, promoting unity across the country.
