India Post to ban Gmail in Post Offices from February 2016



Member (Technology), Postal Service Board, Shri. B V Sudhakar issued a circular D.O No:46-2/2013-Tech dated 19.01.2016 where in clear instruction has been included in connection with bandwidth usage and unnecessary usage of outside email clients.  Following are the content of above said circular.
The original circular of Member (Technology) is shown below this post.

A number of references are being received from the Circles regarding inadequacy of bandwidth and the need for up gradation. We are in the process of setting up a system so that bandwidth availability does not affect performance adversely. We have also upgraded the bandwidth of the Data Centre so as to provide greater speed during transfer of data.
Upon analysis, I find that a number of factors lead to unnecessary consumption of bandwidth which can easily be avoided. An important process that can effectively reduce consumption of bandwidth is Active Directory. The CSI Vendor, TCS has created more than 1.36 Lakh Active Directory users and details have been shared with the respective Divisions. It has been noticed that users are however, logging into the systems with local login credentials. It may be ensured henceforth that all the users login with Active Directory user id only.
As a part of IT modernization project, Department of Posts has developed its own e-mail system. India Post e-mail id of all Group A, Group B and Heads of all the Offices have been created It is noticed that some of the offices are still using public email id like Gmail, yahoo mail etc. instead of the Indi Post email id. Mr. Niranjan Kumar(niranjan@lndiaPost.gov.in) may be contacted for any issues relating to e-mail IDs.
I request your compliance on the above two issues by 15th February, 2016. It may be noted that thereafter users not Jogging in with Active Directory will not get internet access and all public email ids will be blocked.
Any matter that may need Directorate’s intervention may be escalated to the Technology Division. I will be closely monitoring the issue and request full compliance by 15th February, 2016. We must aim at optimal utilization of bandwidth, rather than unsustainably increasing bandwidth.


India Post Sees A Massive 900% Jump In Profit As The Prefered Partner Of E-Commerce Brands



If you thought that India Post is all but done for and with the downfall of snail-mail (that's letters and postcards if you didn't get it!) and the closure of Telegram, then you got it all wrong.
India Post has seen an unprecedented profit growth in the past two years piggybacking on the rise of e-commerce and its reach into the remotest corners of India. Where new services Delhivery, Ekart and at times even world-leading couriers may fail - India Post still does it.

Add this to the reliability which makes it the favoured Cash-On-Delivery (COD) channel used by e-commerce brands - led by Amazon - and we have a match made in heaven.

Postal department’s revenues by ways of COD consignments from e-commerce majors has gone up to Rs 1,000 crore in the first nine months of this fiscal, up from Rs 500 crore during the entire whole of FY15, and just Rs 100 crore in FY14. Minister for Communications and Information Technology, Ravi Shankar Prasad has confirmed it and expects revenue to touch Rs 1500 by end of March; making this an almost tripling growth over last year.
The Department has partnered with e-tailers, including Flipkart, Snapdeal, Amazon, YepMe, Shopclues, for delivering pre-paid as well as CoD orders. Amazon is its largest business partner in e-Commerce

On an average, Amazon sends 3,00,000 packages through India Post every month followed by Snapdeal (80K), Yepme (60K), Myntra (50k) and Flipkart (30K).

The Minister said complete revival of the postal department is his top-most priority.
"I want to see India Post as a big hub of e-commerce, delivery and digital services," Prasad said. His vision may also be based on the fact that RBI had given India Post a banking license in August last year and we may see our post office become a full blown bank from a Non-banking financial entity in near future.
Gone may be the days when Dakiya Dak Laaya was a hit but in today's India it's just transformed into Daakiya Mac Laaya!
