Suggestions, letters and essays will be forwarded to the authorities for implementation.
After tasting success with its ‘Stories On A Postcard’ initiative, the Postal Department has come up with another idea. It has now invited people to pen their thoughts on the themes of ‘Save The Future’ and ‘Save The Girl Child’. The suggestions, letters and essays will be forwarded to the authorities for implementation.
“People from across the country will be asked to give suggestions, solutions, essays and stories. They can send their ideas through postcards, inland letters or postal envelops using not more than two A4 size papers. It should be posted through the postal network only in India. The campaign is open till December 31. Prizes will be given for the best entries in January,” said Col KC Mishra, chief postmaster general, Maharashtra Circle.
During the launch of the campaign as well as the special cover on ‘Save The Future’, chief secretary Jayant Banthia said, “This is a unique initiative to create awareness among the people. All district collectors and municipal commissioners will approach the postal officers in their respective areas to extend their support to the project.”
As per the plan, the winning ideas will be handed over to the authorities and departments so that people’s suggestion can be implemented for the larger good of the administration.
