What is a Philatelic Bureau, a Philatelic Counter and an authorised office?

      Philatelic Bureaux function in 59 Head Post Offices at  Circle   Head   Offices   or   in   major district towns.
-They  carry   out  sale   of philatelic items to individuals, dependent   counters    and  authorised Post offices.
-Philatelic Deposit Accounts can be opened at  these Bureaus.
-Philatelic counters supply all philatelic items but are   not   authorised  to  issue the Special Cancellation that accompanies each commemorative stamp.
-They   provide a standard "First Day of Issue" cancellation on first day cover. Authorised   offices  only  sell commemorative/special stamps, blank first day covers and brochures.
