Malik – Patna, Moloy Sarkar –Kolkata and Jeevan Jyoti   were honoured by ASI at a function held at the venue of the exhibition. However Mr Moloy Sarkar and Mr Pradeep Kr Malik could not attend this grand function. This exhibition was very successful and attended by large number of philatelists and tourists from India and abroad as Red Fort is the landmark of Delhi and one of the greatest attractions for the tourists visiting India from all over the world . I got a chance to attend this function. Here are the glimpses of the show.
