    I was under the impression that Postal Dept is still one of the last few non corrupt Institutions left in India

    It is very surprising and strange to note that past 3yrs,supervisor of postal dept not noticed the irragularities which Mr Dinesh have done! The post office, Perady near to my native place is also a coincidental! Thanks Daijiworld.

    This is a good step that has been taken by the postal authorities. In Villages the people are respecting and believing on Post Masters and Post Mans but they are cheating those people. This is not only one incident, there are several postal dept. employees are cheating believed people. Some of poor people are receiving pensions every month and they are not getting the full amount, instead of that the post man is taking his commission before giving such a small amount to the poor people. The Postal authority has to take strict action against the cheaters.
