Registered post ‘retires': Bygone postal era ends silently in bylanes
1 2 3 Bhopal:Among the first post-offices in city, the one at Jumerati was built at the end of the 19th century. If you were to visit this mundanely historical site today, you would have to first cross congested by-lanes where there are no cops to regulate traffic and only good samaritans in the area redirect the flow as vehicles drive on the wrong side. Even when you reach the Jumerati post-office, you might pass by and miss it. But when you do end up at the premises, a nearly deserted office with two employees would greet you. The reason: Postal services that once brought joy and a feeling of being seen by people or institutions, a letter of trust or your passport in a registered post, are fading away; assured and tangible acknowledgement being replaced by instant messages on mobiles and a cold distance in real time. The Indian govt has now decided to merge registered post with speedpost. The decline of physical spaces, letters and posts is evident from the state of the oldest post-office, which could've been a heritage site had things been more offline. The end of this era is pronounced more now with the iconic registered post and its physical acknowledgment increasingly becoming a thing of the past. And when it was announced a few days ago that registered post service will be merged with speedpost, the escalation went up a notch. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Substance Found in Pink Salt has Bariatric Effects on Women Over 50 Health & Family Click Here Undo Geeta Gupta, who was a postmaster 35 years ago at a post office in Datia district, and now lives in Bhopal, toldTOI, "The person sending the registered post received an acknowledgment, which is called AD, from the postman like a postcard, that their post has been delivered. I do not know how much of the practice is still adhered to by post offices now but at our time, the person got the AD without fail," While the hallmark of registered post was once reliability, security and accountability, the process of transitioning the speedpost to online servers in the last few days has ironically been marked by a bumpy start: People in the city stood in long and unending queues for the last few days, with some quarrelling with the staff, as the server fluctuated for hours on end. The situation improved a bit on Wednesdayn at TT Nagar post-office but people could be heard complaining about the server delaying their wait time at the post-office GPO near Gandhi Medical College. A staffer at the GPO said, wishing anonymity, "The timing for this server shift could've been chosen at a better time like April when there are no consumers at the post-office. In the Hindi-belt, the festival of Rakhi is celebrated more so that really created issues at the post-offices in Bhopal," And the registered post didn't only hold sentimental value as it is widely used for legal and official purposes, just ask any experienced lawyer in Bhopal, "I've been using registered post for 28 years now and it used to be a reliable way of presenting the acknowledgement of posts in court as it was also admissible, but for the last 10 years or so, the acknowledgements either do not arrive or the postman doesn't deliver them. This move to merge registered post with speedpost may help practically if there's a provision made to incorporate admissibility because registered post as it is wasn't working that well. Right now, we have to do rounds of the post-office to get confirmation from the postmaster while in an earlier era, acknowledgement from a registered post could be submitted in court directly." said CS Tiwari, a lawyer in Bhopal. Mayank Vijaywergiya, a financial consultant, also uses registered post, "There is uncertainty right now about how it'll be merged and how it'll work but the move could speedily send posts," he said. A local shopkeeper, wishing anonymity, said that registered post is cheaper than speedpost at times so he is concerned if higher costs would have to be paid now.

Mathru Mandali to celebrate 90th anniv on Aug 9
Mysuru: Mathru Mandali, a pioneer institution for girls' education and women empowerment , will celebrate its 90th anniversary on Aug 9. Former minister and Congress MLC Umashree will launch the event. IPS officer and writer Dharanidevi Malagatti will release a souvenir. Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Mathru Mandali secretary Vani Prasad said the organisation began its journey in 1935 in VV Mohalla, where there were no exclusive schools for girls at the time. It was founded by four visionary women—Kameshwaramma Kuppuswamy, Soundaryamma Venkatesan, Sunandamma, and Kaballi Nagarathnamma— with the goal of empowering women through education and skill-building. The institution started with kindergarten, tailoring, and dance classes, laying a strong foundation for both academic and cultural development. In 1939, under the able leadership of Soundaryamma, the school moved to a rented space on Adipampa Road and later acquired land for its permanent campus. The school gradually expanded to offer education in both Kannada and English mediums and now serves over 250 students. A pre-university college offering arts and commerce streams was added in 1968, now catering to 200 students. In 1995, as part of its diamond jubilee, Mathru Mandali opened a special school for intellectually challenged children in Gokulam. "We are proud to be a cradle of dreams for underprivileged students. With committed staff and community support, we aim to continue this legacy of empowerment," said Vani Prasad. Due to a lack of teachers to teach special schoolchildren, Mathru Mandali is also planning to start a one-year Diploma in Special Education and a six-month teachers training for kindergarten. Rameshwari Verma, honorary president, Vijayalakshmi Urs, president, Hema Balachandran, assistant secretary, and Vijayalakshmi Muralidhar, treasurer, were also present.
