POSTAL SERVICE



There was a news head line some time back that SIM cards,Railway tickets,Money transfer,income tax plus the usual postal service can be availed from the postal department of India.One can hardly find any letter box and post office anywhere, if one can find one the, lock is missing or broken,or cpndition of the letter box as seen in this photograph . This is the state of affair in the capital city of ODISSA.Postal service zinda bad.Once up a time Indian postal service was the best in the world and with little effort it can be still be revived, if we have a minister like Lalu Prasad Yadav.Letters/parcals are still being delivered by indian postal department to very remote places of the country, where no courier service can dare to reach.It's still the best for me because i can send post cards for 50paise, inland letters (Rs2.50)and envelops(Rs:5) to any part of India, cheapest in the world.May be late but letters do reach in weeks or months time.With the revision of pay scale for postal employee lets hope Indian postal service jumps back to that coverted postion in the world.
