Making UNGA more effective can’t be divorced from UNSC reforms: India
Making the General Assembly more effective cannot be divorced from the wider context of the reform of the UN, including the Security Council, according to India.
The UN Postal Administration (UNPA) is issuing a set of stamps showing 10 yoga asanas (poses) to commemorate the International Day of Yoga on June 21 in New York.
The 10 stamps of $1.15 denomination each depict a different yoga pose next to a large 'Om' in Devanagri script.

In 2016, the UNPA issued a stamp in honour of M.S. Subbalakshmi, the classical Carnatic music singer, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of her 1966 concert at the UN.
The UN stamps can be used for posting letters and packages internationally from UN facilities in New York, Geneva and Vienna.
However, the yoga stamps would be issued only in the US dollar denomination in New York.
