THE KING OF HOBBIES
Travellers' World|February - March 2023
Happiness is life; a life without happiness is not worth anything. There are many ways for a person to keep him happy. If one needs to say in the words of Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw, Happy is a man who can make a living by his hobby. Philately is one of those hobbies by which you can be happy, not only be happy but also acquire more knowledge.
Arun Kumar Narasimhan
THE KING OF HOBBIES

Philately means the study or the art of collecting stamps and its related ones. The term "Philately" is derived from two Greek words-philos and ateleia, which means love that is taxfree. It is said that Frenchman Georges Herpin coined the term "Philately" in 1864, several years after the postage system was started by Rowland Hill in 1840. Philately is known as the King of Hobbies.

National Parks Of India

India is blessed with a rich tapestry of biodiversity that is both a natural heritage and a national treasure. The concept of national parks in the country traces back to the late 19th century when the importance of conserving wildlife began to take root in the consciousness of the colonial administration. The first national park in India, Hailey National Park (now known as Rajaji National Park), was established in 1936, marking a historic commitment to wildlife conservation. The post-independence era saw an exponential increase in protected areas, primarily driven by a need to conserve India’s unique flora and fauna threatened by rampant industrialization and urbanization.
