Karnataka Postal Circle released a special cancellation for Infant Protection Day on 7 November 2026. A postcard illustrated by MB’s Stamps of India shows a mother holding an infant within an arched outline. The bilingual marking names Infant Protection Day and bears the date 07-11-2026, Mangaluru and postcode 575001.

An announcement attributed to Karnataka Postal Circle names four philatelic bureaus for the service: Bengaluru GPO, Mysuru HO, Mangaluru HO and Belagavi HO. The collector report also states that the cancellation was available at other head post offices across Karnataka. The pictured item is a serviced postcard, rather than a newly issued adhesive stamp.
