(2/3) Did you know what Indian passports looked like in the yesteryears? Share this with a friend who loves to travel!
These passports were made in 1976 and ‘81 respectively and I find them so fascinating!
Context – my nana ji (grandfather) was an engineer when he was younger and passed out of Roorkee University (present day IIT Roorkee) in the branch of mechanical engineering. In one of his trainings, he was sent to Austria in 1964 for almost a year. Then he got a job in different countries and was able to travel extensively with his entire family. Yup, even my mom.
Can you imagine how ancient these passports are! 😱
On my recent trip to my grandparents place, I had the opportunity to see all their passports from over the years and then the idea of this series was born. In the next part, I’ll show you 1970s and 1980s ka passport! I felt like the 1960s really just deserved a video of its own. This is 3 part series. 🤪
This kind of makes me wonder, maybe travelling is just in my blood. 🙏
