Farewell to Our “Iron Lady” – Ms. Vandita Kaul

 

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Today, on 31st May 2026, the Department of Posts witnesses the conclusion of a remarkable and inspiring chapter as Ms. Vandita Kaul demits the office of Secretary, Department of Posts, on her superannuation.

On behalf of the Federation of National Postal Organisations (FNPO), I convey our heartfelt gratitude, deep respect, and warm wishes to Madam for her extraordinary service to the nation and to India Post.

Ms. Vandita Kaul will always be remembered as the “Iron Lady” of India Post” — a leader of exceptional courage, uncompromising integrity, and visionary administrative strength. Throughout her distinguished career, she handled numerous complex administrative, financial, and technological challenges with remarkable confidence and determination.

Her tenure was marked by:

 Unwavering Honesty and Transparency

  Madam stood as a shining example of integrity in public service, maintaining the highest standards of ethical administration and accountability.

- Deep Commitment to Employee Welfare

  She consistently paid sincere attention to the welfare and concerns of employees at all levels, recognizing that the strength of India Post lies in its workforce.

- Visionary Leadership in Revenue Growth and Modernisation

  Her focused efforts towards strengthening postal revenue, expanding rural postal banking services, and steering the Department through the massive IT 2.0 transformation will remain milestones in the history of India Post.

- Administrative Courage and Decisiveness

  Madam’s fearless and firm decision-making during challenging times earned her immense respect across all sections of the Department.

The postal fraternity will always remember her dedication, discipline, sincerity, and relentless efforts towards building a stronger, modern, and service-oriented India Post.

As she enters a new phase of life, we pray that she is blessed with good health, happiness, peace, and a fulfilling retired life.

FNPO places on record its sincere appreciation and gratitude for the invaluable services rendered by Ms. Vandita Kaul to the Department of Posts and to the nation.

With profound regards and best wishes.
