Among the many artistic treasures that enrich Pakistan's cultural landscape, Blue Pottery stands as a remarkable symbol of craftsmanship, beauty, and continuity. Distinguished by its luminous shades of cobalt blue, delicate floral motifs, and intricate geometric patterns, this centuries-old art form reflects the harmonious blend of cultural influences that have shaped the region's artistic heritage.

In Pakistan, the art of Blue Pottery finds its most celebrated expressions in Hala in Sindh and Multan in Punjab, two historic centers of ceramic craftsmanship that have preserved and enriched this tradition for generations. The distinctive blue-glazed ceramics of Hala, renowned for their vibrant colors and intricate patterns, reflect centuries of artistic excellence, while Multan's celebrated blue-and-white pottery showcases the enduring influence of Persian and Central Asian decorative traditions. The craft has also found renewed vitality in Lahore, Islamabad, and other cities where skilled artisans continue to create exquisite pieces that blend traditional techniques with contemporary aesthetics. Together, these centers ensure that Blue Pottery remains a vibrant and evolving expression of Pakistan's rich cultural heritage.

The process of creating Blue Pottery is both intricate and labor-intensive. Skilled artisans carefully shape each piece before adorning its surface with hand-painted floral arabesques, foliage, and geometric designs. The characteristic blue hues, often complemented by touches of turquoise, green, and white, are applied with precision and artistry. The pieces are then glazed and fired, resulting in the brilliant finish that has become synonymous with this treasured craft.

Beyond its aesthetic beauty, Blue Pottery embodies a rich cultural narrative. The recurring motifs draw inspiration from nature, architecture, and the decorative traditions of the Islamic world.

Each vessel, plate, bowl, or ornamental object serves as a canvas that preserves centuries of artistic knowledge while reflecting the creativity of contemporary craftsmen.

This commemorative stamp issue celebrates the enduring legacy of Blue Pottery as an integral part of Pakistan's cultural heritage. The stamps feature a selection of beautifully crafted ceramic forms and decorative patterns that showcase the refinement, balance, and visual harmony characteristic of this art. Together, they pay tribute to the artisans whose dedication has ensured the survival of a craft that continues to inspire admiration across generations.

By highlighting Blue Pottery through philately, Pakistan Post honors not only an artistic tradition but also the spirit of preservation that safeguards the nation's intangible cultural heritage. These stamps serve as miniature ambassadors of Pakistan's rich artistic legacy, carrying the story of this exquisite craft to collectors, enthusiasts, and admirers around the world. Blue Pottery remains a vibrant testament to the skill of Pakistani artisans an enduring expression of beauty, tradition, and cultural identity rendered in timeless shades of blue.

To Commemorate the Heritage of Pakistan Blue Pottery, Pakistan Post is issuing a set of three Commemorative Postage Stamps of Rs. 30/- denomination each and a Souvenir Sheet Valued at Rs.30/-.

1. Pakistan recognized China in January 1950 and the diplomatic relations between the two neighbors were established on 21 May 1951. Pakistan was among the first Muslim majority and non-communist countries that recognized and established relations with China. Pakistan-China relationship has few parallels in contemporary international relations. The unique and long-standing friendship between the two countries has withstood seven decades of political transitions and global realignments. Every successive government in the two countries has tried to deepen and diversify bilateral cooperation. Such consistency in bilateral relations is quite rare to witness anywhere else in the world.

2. Both countries have always respected each other's core interests and supported each other on international forums. Pakistan always supports China in matters of its core interests, including Taiwan, Tibet, Xinjiang, and "One China" Principle. Similarly, China supports Pakistan's territorial integrity including steadfast support on Jammu and Kashmir dispute.

3. The strategic cooperation between Pakistan and China covers all spheres of cooperation including trade and investment, science and technology, defense and security, people-to-people contacts, among others.

4. The inception of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) in 2013, under China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), gave a new impetus to bilateral relations and further brought the two countries closer. Following visit of President Xi Jinping to Pakistan in 2015, bilateral relations were elevated to all-Weather Strategic Cooperative Partnership, which is the official denomination to describe the relationship..

5. China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is a transformative undertaking aimed at enhancing connectivity, boosting energy production, modernizing infrastructure, and uplifting industrial development in Pakistan. From energy generation projects to infrastructure development including Gwadar port, the CPEC has stimulated pace of development in Pakistan. Cooperation has also deepened in agriculture, information technology, and industrial development through joint ventures and investment in Special Economic Zones. CPEC is now entering in its second phase of high-quality development via its five new strategic corridors i.e. Growth, Innovation, Green, Livelihood, and Openness.

6. Defence collaboration remains a strong pillar of Pak-China strategic cooperation. China's defence partnership and intelligence cooperation with Pakistan has strengthened its capacity and ensured peace and stability in South Asia. Cooperation in defense between the two countries is quite prominent due to co-production of "JF-17 thunder jet", which has established its prominence among the top notch fighter jets.

7. People to people contacts are strength of our relations. There is a mutual goodwill among peoples of the two countries which is rooted in years of mutual trust and respect. Tens of thousands of Pakistani students are enrolled in different universities in China, which is highest from any South Asian country. B2B contacts and tourism has steadily increased over the years. The Chinese language is taught in Pakistan through various institutes, universities, and school systems including Confucius institutes. There are multiple Pakistan Study Centers in China, established by Pakistani and Chinese institutions which forms basis to strengthen academic, cultural, and research ties between the two countries.

8. Pakistan and China have built a strong record of humanitarian cooperation rooted in solidarity and mutual support during difficult times. China has consistently been among the first responders during Pakistan's major natural disasters be it earthquake, floods or pandemic. During COVID-19 Pandemic, China supplied vaccines and medical equipment to Pakistan. Pakistan also reciprocates during natural disasters in China.

9. During visit of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to China in September 2025, the two countries signed "Action Plan to Foster an Even Closer China-Pakistan Community with a Shared Future (2025-2029)". The five-year roadmap aims to expand cooperation across politics, economy, security technology and people-to-people links. The plan is a practical manifestation of the deepening bilateral partnership for the shared future.

10. Pak-China partnership is an exceptional example of interstate partnership. This relationship has proved how two countries with different cultures, civilizations and sizes can establish broad based and enduring partnerships.

11. The 75th anniversary is not just a symbolic milestone but it's a commemoration of an extraordinary partnership between two neighbors that is built on the principles of mutual trust and respect. This diamond jubilee marks a landmark occasion to cherish seven decades of extraordinary friendship and to aim for an even higher and deeper partnership for shared future-a future of development, peace, stability, and prosperity.

This commemorative postage stamp celebrates 75 years of Pakistan-China diplomatic friendship, featuring Quaid e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah before the Pakistani flag and Chairman Mao Zedong before the Chinese flag in a soft watercolor painting. The design symbolizes unity and mutual respect between the two nations, highlighted by the official logo of the 75th anniversary and the inscription "75 YEARS OF IRON BROTHERHOOD" in both English and Chinese, marking the enduring partnership from 1951 to 2026.

The year 2025 marks a historic milestone in the journey of The Islamia University of Bahawalpur (IUB) as it proudly celebrates its centenary. From its humble beginnings as Jamia Abbasia in 1925 to its present status as a comprehensive public-sector university, IUB has embodied the spirit of resilience, transformation, and service to society.

Origins: Jamia Abbasia (1925) The roots of The Islamia University of Bahawalpur can be traced to Jamia Abbasia, founded in 1925 in the princely state of Bahawalpur. Jamia Abbasia was established as a religious seminary on the pattern of Al-Azhar University, Cairo. Its primary mission was to impart Islamic education, preserve religious scholarship, and provide spiritual guidance to the people of the region. For decades, Jamia Abbasia attracted scholars, theologians, and students from across South Asia, becoming a center of intellectual discourse and religious learning.

Transition to The Islamia University of Bahawalpur (1975) With the merger of Bahawalpur State into Pakistan and the growing demands of a modernizing society, the academic landscape required a broader vision. Recognizing this need, the Government of Punjab upgraded Jamia Abbasia into a full-fledged university in 1975, renaming it The Islamia University of Bahawalpur. This transition was more than a change of name; it was a redefinition of mission. The IUB retained its foundation of moral and spiritual values while embracing modern disciplines such as natural sciences, social sciences, engineering, agriculture, business, and medicine. This transformation signaled the University's role in bridging tradition with modernity. It began to prepare students not only for religious and cultural leadership but also for professional and scientific contributions to Pakistan's development.

Growth and Expansion:- Over the past fifty years as a university, IUB has grown into one of the largest and most dynamic higher education institutions in Pakistan. It has established multiple campuses in Bahawalpur, Bahawalnagar, Liaquatpur, and Rahim Yar Khan, thereby serving the educational needs of a wide geographical area in South Punjab. Today, the University offers more than 300 degree programs, ranging from undergraduate to doctoral levels, across diverse disciplines.

With a faculty strength of around 1,200, the IUB boasts modern laboratories, digital libraries, and research centers that match international standards. This remarkable growth demonstrates the University's unwavering commitment to making higher education accessible to all segments of society, particularly in underserved regions.

Academic Excellence and Research Contributions:- As an institution, IUB has prioritized both quality education and cutting-edge research. The University hosts faculties and institutes in disciplines such as:

Agriculture and Environment addressing the region's agrarian economy and sustainability challenges.

Engineering, Information Technology, and Artificial Intelligence equipping graduates with skills for the digital economy.

Health and Medical Sciences contributing to the healthcare sector through teaching and medical research.

Islamic Studies, Languages, and Social Sciences carrying forward the legacy of Jamia Abbasia in harmony with modern inquiry.

Through national and international collaborations, the University has participated in research projects of global relevance, addressing climate change, renewable energy, sustainable agriculture, artificial intelligence, and entrepreneurship. Publications from IUB faculty regularly appear in leading indexed journals, reflecting a growing global academic footprint.

Cultural and Regional Impact:- Located in the heart of South Punjab, The IUB has always been more than just a university; it is a cultural anchor for the region. The University has preserved the rich heritage of Bahawalpur, once a princely state known for its palaces, mosques, and traditions of learning. By organizing cultural festivals, conferences, and exhibitions, IUB ensures that the identity of South Punjab is celebrated and shared with the wider world.

Moreover, the University has played a central role in promoting Urdu, Saraiki, and Arabic languages, as well as Islamic scholarship, thereby ensuring that local identity coexists with global relevance. Its alumni have gone on to become leaders in academia, politics, civil services, agriculture, business, and religious affairs, carrying forward the values of service and scholarship.

National Role and Achievements:- The Islamia University of Bahawalpur stands today among the leading universities in Pakistan, recognized by the Higher Education Commission (HEC) for its contributions. It has earned multiple accreditations in professional disciplines, ranked consistently among the country's top public universities, and hosted numerous national and international conferences.

Its research journals, centers of excellence, and academic linkages continue to contribute toward achieving Pakistan's national development goals, particularly in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Furthermore, the University's emphasis on entrepreneurship and innovation has nurtured a generation of graduates who are job creators rather than job seekers.

The Centenary Spirit (1925-2025) Celebrating 100 years of knowledge and service is both a moment of pride and a call to future responsibility. The centenary celebrations highlight the University's journey from a small religious seminary to a modern, comprehensive university serving tens of thousands of students.

The Commemorative stamp symbolizes:

1. Heritage:- Honoring Jamia Abbasia and its legacy of faith, scholarship, and learning.

2. Transformation:- capturing the expansion of the institution into a multidisciplinary university.

3. Service reflecting the University's role in advancing education and development in South Punjab and Pakistan.

4. Vision showcasing the University's commitment to global competitiveness and sustainability in its second century.

On the eve of the centenary of The Islamia University of Bahawalpur (1925-2025), Pakistan Post is issuing the Commemorative Postage Stamp of Rs.100/- each denomination on March 4th, 2026.

Kashmir Solidarity Day, observed annually on 5 February, reflects Pakistan's enduring commitment to stand with the people of Jammu and Kashmir in their struggle for dignity, justice, and the right to self-determination. The origins of this observance are rooted in a period when the scale of repression in Indian-Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir had drawn national and international concern. The formal initiative to mark this day was first proposed by Qazi Hussain Ahmed, a political leader and former head of Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan. In 1990, the call gained decisive national momentum when Mian Nawaz Sharif, then the Chief Minister of Punjab, appealed for a nationwide strike and public mobilisation to protest against the ongoing Indian occupation and to express solidarity with the Kashmiri freedom struggle. The day was subsequently endorsed by major political parties and civil society organisations and was later declared a public holiday, cementing its place as a collective national expression of moral and political support.

The observance serves as a solemn reflection on the grave human rights violations faced by the Kashmiri people under Indian occupation. The region remains among the most militarised zones in the world, where civilians continue to endure excessive use of force, arbitrary detentions, custodial violence, enforced disappearances, and severe restrictions on movement and communication. Independent reports over the years have documented intimidation, demographic engineering efforts, and repeated assaults on fundamental freedoms. These conditions underscore Pakistan's longstanding position that peace, stability, and legitimacy in the region cannot emerge through coercion or the systematic erosion of human dignity.

Across Pakistan and Azad Jammu and Kashmir, the day is marked with extensive public engagement aimed at amplifying Kashmiri voices and reinforcing a unified national stance. Public processions, human chains on routes leading into AJK, special prayers, and community gatherings express solidarity with the Kashmiri people. Government institutions, political parties, religious leaders, and civil society networks organise conferences, seminars, and media programmes that highlight the historical context of the dispute, present documented accounts of ongoing violations, and reaffirm Pakistan's advocacy for a peaceful resolution based on the aspirations of the Kashmiri people. Educational institutions host debates and dialogue forums to engage youth in informed reflection on the human rights dimensions of the conflict and the responsibilities of the global community.

Each year, the observance of 5 February renews Pakistan's resolve to continue supporting the people of Jammu and Kashmir in their just struggle. It reinforces a principled national commitment that no durable peace in South Asia can be achieved without acknowledging the rights, sacrifices, and aspirations of the Kashmiri people. Through this day, Pakistan stands firm in upholding the ideals of justice, humanity, and the right of oppressed communities to determine their own future.

On the eve of Kashmir Solidarity Day Pakistan Post is issuing the Commemorative Postage Stamp of Rs.30/- each denomination on February 5th, 2026.
