The proponent or individual organizations who moot such proposals may, however, request the concerned Head of the Circle for permission to organize a function. This should be done sufficiently in advance and such a proposal should be accompanied by a draft minute-to-minute programme and dais plan of the proposed function and a draft invitation card so that appropriate protocol is maintained and there is a uniformity of approach. 61.2 Any formal release function for a Special Cover by a dignitary of the central or state government should have an appropriate representative (usually Head of the Circle/Regional PMG of the concerned Circle/Region) of the Department of Posts. Exceptions to this are made only when the President of India, the Vice-President of India, the Prime Minister of Indih or the Speaker, Lok Sabha or 34 U:. ^ t' ' Handboo/cI on Philately- Governoi^jovernor of a^^tate/Unior(jeritor^cohsents for release of special covers. On such occasions the. Minister of Communications/Minister of State for Communications normally presents the first Album containing the Cover to them for release. It is, therefore, imperative that the MOC/MOS(C)delivers his speech and introduces the special cover before its release. Regardless of the dignitary who is invited by the proponen|^to grace the occasion, it is necessary that letters of invitation issue" from the proponent to the MOC/MOS{C) and Secretary,- Department of Posts, (or the CPMG/PMG in Circle/Region level function), to ascertain their convenience. ^ 61.3 The level^fhe Department's representation at a release function is(^r^Jl>blecided keeping in view the level and status of the VIP who is to receive the first Album of the cover to mark itsJormal release. 61.4 It is the responsibility of the organizer to ensure that all the necessary arrangements for the functions including printing and issue of ■ -invitation cards, site preparation, security arrangements, liaison with press, T.V. etc. for publicity of the event etc. have been made. 61.5 If necessary, the proponent will have to arrange distribution of special covers to the ViPs attending the release function as well as material used in the presentation Albums at their own cost. 61.6 No formal release function for a special cover may be held without specific prior approval from the Department of Posts.
