In 2021, @LokSabhaSectt MPs have suggested to issue postal stamps on freedom fighter Ramphal Mandal (1924-1943), poet-social reformer Mooloor Padmanabha Panicker (1869-1931) and 100 years of Gandhi’s Odisha visit (March 1921) .
Last one has already been issued.

Perarasar Perumbidugu Mutharaiyar (675 AD-745 AD), also known as Suvaran Maran was a king from Thanjavur area in Tamil Nadu, India.
Postal stamp on the historical figure was apparently scheduled for issuance in 2022 but never materialized.
Wonder why?!

Your artwork might be the stamp we’re looking for to mark the United Nations’ 80th anniversary!
Together with @IndiaPostOffice & @MEAIndia, #TeamUNinIndia 🇮🇳 invites young artists to design a special stamp to celebrate #UN80 on the theme: “Building a future together”

India’s Cultural Heritage: Kumbh, a Hindu pilgrim festival, is the largest such peaceful gathering on earth. India Post issued a special stamp (02 Feb 2019) and two MyStamp sheets (2016 & 2018) to celebrate Ujjain & Prayagraj events

This one’s been pending since 2012!
Postage stamp issue on Veer Meghmaya (12th century saint from Gujarat) was finally green lit after the 2022 PAC meeting and will be issued.
May not be the final design but just sharing some details.

India Post finally issued a postal stamp on Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee (1924-2018) on 25th Dec @PMOIndia in Khajuraho MP. Waited 6 years after his passing and wish it was a better design with a souvenir sheet. Happy though!

India Post stamps on Bhagwan Parshvanath were dedicated on 25th in Ostra RJ @TCGEHLOT. Stamp designs by Anjali & Himani are alright but would have liked to see temple architecture as well.

India’s former PM Vajpayee is no more. He was a well known journalist, poet, social worker and politician who was also a Bharat Ratna. Truly hope India Post will issue a stamp on his birthday (25 Dec) to celebrate his legacy #BetterPhila #Stamps18 #AtalBihariVajpayee

Stamps on Jainism!
Likely to see India Post stamp issues on Acharya Sushil Kumar Maharaj (1926-1994) and Bhagwan Mahavir 2550th Nirvan (BC 599- BC 527). Not entirely sure about issue dates just yet.
