To cope up with the erratic electricity supply in remote areas of
sprawling Raipur revenue division, some of the rural post offices are
opting to Solar Panels for uninterrupted power supply to improve their
customer services. Though the process is at the initial phase.
“We have received budget for some of our village based post offices and
aim to begin the functioning of such post offices with solar lights as
well by this year. The decision was taken in the previous financial
year,” said HN Sharma, the Assistant Superintendent of Post Offices
(Tour) Raipur Division.
The Postal Department is yet to pick up a permanent agency or company
for the supply of these solar panels. “We cannot claim the availability
of this renewable source in all the 542 rural post offices under our
division in future. It depends on the budget allotted by the centre in
coming up months ” added the Assistant Superintendent.
Besides, providing additional light facilities to the village post
offices, the Postal Department is also looking ahead of commencing Core
Banking Solution (CBS) in the rural post offices with better internet
and computer connectivity.
“Like solar panels, the CBS in rural post offices will be carried out in
phases. Probably, by this year, we would be in a position to begin CBS
in rural areas,” said Sharma.
Following the CBS functioning in large number of urban as well as rural
post offices, India Post may install ATM for the convenience of its
customers in future, informed sources.
Notably, the post offices of Raipur, Gariaband, Mahasamund, Dhamtari and
Balodabazaar-Bhatapara districts are covered under the Office of the
Superintendent RMS, RP Division, Raipur.
