Govt. Sector is lacking in many areas to compete with rivals in the market, This arose due to monopolistic competition. Competitor gives better service and guaranteed delivery within the time. People always choose better quality at lower price and they also do not hesitate pay extra for better service. So Indian postal need to concentrate on better service at lower price along with adopting high speed internet and docket track systems to fullfil the requirements of customers.

पोस्ट आफिस सेवाओं के दो हिस्से करें पहला पोस्टल सर्विसेज, इस हिस्से को प्राइवेट सेक्टर को सौंप दे! दूसरा हिस्सा फाइनेन्शियल सर्विसेज उसे किसी राष्ट्रीयकृत वित्तीय संस्थान से जोड़ दें, और दोनों हिस्सों पर कठोर नियंत्रण के लिये एक नियंत्रक समूह बना कर सेवाओं की गुणवत्ता पर नियंत्रण रखें ! मेरे विचार से सरकार के लिये यही एक लाभकारी एवं गुणवत्ता वर्घक निर्णय होगा पोस्ट ऑफिस के संदर्भ में !

Post Offices have the highest out reach to the rural population. they carry out savings & other bank related transactions. Hence may be more suitable for having role in rural banking activities. The other notable area is Railway Reservations. The Post offices are ideal centers to facilitate PRS activity of Indian Railways. They have the infrastructure & may also cater to manpower needs. Require connectivity to internet and access to PRS networks.

Post offices must make way for needs of modern India. A necessity in the last century , is headed for obsolescence. To remian relevant must transforn. Options- rural bankers either in conjunction with SBI or alone. Spearhead PM jan dhan yojna; manage AADHAR cash transfers in rural area; help spread awareness of govt schemes and be eyes and ears of govt in monitoring NREGA/PDS and other schemes. Potential is tremendous but bottom line must be perform or perish. will need some skill development
