The government will issue a special postage stamp to commemorate the golden jubilee of the International Film Festival of India (IFFI), set to take place in Goa from November 20-28, an official statement said on Thursday.

A special postage stamp and a first-day cover -- a postage stamp on a cover, postal card or stamped envelope franked on the first day of issue -- will be released to commemorate the 50th edition of IFFI.

A competition for designing the postage stamp and the first-day cover has been launched by the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting on the MyGov platform.

The contest is open from August 1-15 and the winner will receive a certificate of appreciation, along with travel arrangements and hospitality for two nights and three days in Goa to attend the festival.
