The resolve of the Department to support the Prime Minister’s “New India” initiative
was applauded by Minister of Communications,Shri Ravi Shankar Prashadin
his address to the officers over a video conference. The Minister urged
the officers of the Department at all levels to think to reform and
perform in order to transform. In particular, he asked the Heads of
Circles to leverage technology to strengthen Digital India by adopting
Artificial intelligence, IOT and Cloud computing for citizen centric
services. The many start-ups coming up in the country are the plus
points of the nation that need to be supported and harnessed by the
Postal service. Most importantly, he urged the Department to tap the
rising demand for e-Commerce in rural and semi- urban India by fast
tracking the access of e-Commerce participants to this emerging segment.
In his concluding remarks, the Minister recalled the powerful use of
the “Letter” by Mahatma Gandhi and suggested that as mark of the
association of the Postal Department with the Father of the Nation, the
Department should pay an appropriate tribute to him on the occasion of
his 150th birth anniversary on 2nd October, 2019.
