New Delhi: October 9 is celebrated as World Postal Day all over the world. However, a lot has changed in the work in the postal department. Earlier, where people used to send their sorrows and happiness to each other by post, now mobile has taken its place. But that does not mean at all that the postal work is over. Rather, now the postal is offering some other kind of convenience.
It is a different matter that people may have stopped sending letters to each other through post, but even today the postal department is doing your work. Such as delivering things like Aadhar card, PAN card, Ganga Jal, ATM card to your home. But do you know that a postman also works like an ATM for you. Yes, if you want, you can use a postman instead of an ATM to withdraw money from your account.
Every day a person can withdraw up to ten thousand rupees from his Aadhar linked bank account from the micro ATM present with the postman. When everything was closed due to Corona, India Post did the work of reducing some of the problems people were facing in life.
Today i.e. on 9th October, on the occasion of World Postal Day, an officer of India Post told about the success of India Post. He told that India Post has delivered money to more than 80 thousand people daily in remote areas of Uttar Pradesh. This work of India Post is still going on. Postmen and Gramin Dak Sevaks in rural areas have so far given to the needy by withdrawing more than Rs 140 crore from other banks through the Aadhaar inbuilt payment system.
Ease to the elderly, laborers, patients
According to an officer of India Post, the state government has also got a lot of ease due to this facility of the postal department. Elderly, differently-abled, patients, poor, farmers and laborers are getting maximum benefit from this initiative of the postal department. Mail vans are running all over the state with the help of road transport network for booking medicines and delivering money. Transactions worth more than Rs 6,000 crore have taken place through post office savings accounts during this period. Union Communications Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad has praised this initiative by tweeting.
People are getting help through many mediums, the
