Indian commemorative post-mark of "Jai Hind"

Jai Hind is a salutation, slogan, and battle cry most commonly used in India in speeches and communications pertaining to or referring to patriotism towards India (also known as Hind). It translates roughly to "Victory to India"[1] or "Long live India".[2] It is said that Father of the slogan Jai Hind is Chembakaraman Pillai. The term was coined by Major Abid Hasan Safrani of the Indian National Army as a shortened version of Jai Hindustan Ki (translation: Victory to India).[3][4]

The Jai Hind postmark was the first commemorative postmark of Independent India, and was issued on the day of independence, 15 August 1947.
