Separate PIN code for Supreme Court launched
The step is expected to cut
delivery time at least by half a day
The Department of Posts on Thursday
launched a separate PIN code — 110201 — for the Supreme Court of India.
The function was presided over by
Communication Minister Kapil Sibal and attended by Chief Justice of India P.
Sathasivam.
According to Padmini Gopinath,
Secretary, Posts, this is a new initiative of the department to allot
customised PIN codes to a few bulk recipients of mail. This will help the court
receive mail directly from the sorting office without the intervention of
delivery post office. While this will cut the delivery time at least by half a
day, it will also reduce the cost of operations for the department.
Mr. Sibal listed the various
initiatives being taken by his Ministry to modernise the postal services. There
was a proposal to introduce banking functions also which would help the rural
people to get credit at a much cheaper rate than banks.
Justice Sathasivam said separate PIN
codes would soon be introduced for High Courts which would help in reducing the
delivery time of the mails. Chief Post Master General, Delhi circle, Brig.
Y.P.S. Mohan, gave a demonstration.
