Dear Comrades,
NEW DELHI: A policy targeting expansion and modernisation of the postal
network would be announced this year, said Communications Minister Kapil Sibal
said on Wednesday and added that the postal department had applied to the
Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for a banking licence.
"The nature of postal services has changed dramatically, to recognise this
change there needs to be a new policy framework not only to participate in the
change but to take the postal department to a new height," the minister told
reporters after a round table with postal stakeholders.
