Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and Union Communications Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia on Thursday inaugurated the newly renovated Nehru Place Post Office, equipped with upgraded digital and public service facilities.
Speaking at the event, the leaders said the modernisation of India Post under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership has transformed post offices into technology-driven public service centres catering to the needs of a new era. The upgraded Nehru Place facility will offer faster and simplified citizen services, including parcel handling, banking, insurance, Aadhaar-related assistance and passport services, stated a press note.
