Post has a new role to perform

The postman not only delivers mail at the doorstep but also collects letter, including registered post, and sells stamps

Communication has advances so much so that walking down to drop a letter in the post box is a memory for many. And for the older generation, especially those who are not familiar with modern technology such as e-mail, handwritten letters are still the only means to communicating with relatives and friends.

India Post’s new customer friendly initiative benefits this segment most. Now, the postman not only delivers mail at the doorstep but also collects letters, including registered post, and sells stamps. Postmen now carry pouches containing stamps of various denomination and covers. They also have receipt books to Speed Post.

The service, launched in Chennai in July, was introduced in the western regions like Coimbatore, Erode, Salem ect… in August. The response has been encouraging. This service especially benefits the elders, the disable and companies that want to dispatch bulk mail.

Ex-Example Village

Bihar.

Bangaon village is all what the state of Bihar is not..

When the world is increasingly relying on security system and burglar alarms, villagers of Bangaon in Saharsa does not even need a lock and key. The last case of theft in the village was registered in August 2002. The Police is surprised that not a single criminal case has been registered since 2002.

Bangaon is a paradox in Bihar, which was adjudged the most corrupt Indian state by Transparency International and Center for Media Studies. The village of 35,000 people has motorable roads, electricity supply and 3,000 telephone connections, and is an example in communal harmony. Brahmins come to Muslim’s home for Muharram and Brahmins will go to their homes to celebrate Holi.

The Panchayat and the Sarvopakarinee Sansthan Dharma Sabha sort out disputes. The Dharma Sabha was the birth child of a Babua Khan, the father of Bangaon, who opened a school 98 years ago Bangaon’s literacy rate (70%) is more than double the district average of 29%, and the village has produced three IAS and two IPS officers, hundreds of other government servants, and 30 doctors. Four of its villagers have struck it rich in the US and Germany and have built impressive Dollar houses in Bangaon.

The Dharma Sabha’s influence is all pervading. Babua Khan taught people to respect elders by touching their feet, a system that is still in. Social evils like dowry are a taboo in the village. Boys and girls seldom marry outside the village. A man Ram Narain Khan a retired major, have 13 children; 11 married in Bangaon. The title Khan is common among Brahmins and they believe that Muslim rulers conferred it to reward bravery of two Thakur brothers or some others who defended the honour of their women.

The Buddha had visited Bangaon after he attained enlightenment. He chose two disciples. The village is called Aapan Nigam in Buddhist literature later it became Bangaon because of it being surrounded by ban (jungle). Adi Shankaracharya, too, is said to have set his foot in the village, but Baba Laxminath Gosai is a more popular saint and wrongdoers. According to Freedo Struggle of Saharsa by Abhaya Shankar Khan, people here unfurled the Indian flag on August 13,1947 itself.

The villagers are aware that freedom comes from collective responsibility. Major decisions ever on whom to vote for are by consensus. They were never forced to vote for any candidate, but they follow the decision. No wonder the politicians feel lucky to preside over a function here.

Very sad news for me

Today morning we got a phone call, the message is my cousin Uncle died, in his sleep. He was a very good heart person. He was very care of me, sad to hear his dead news.

He is a non-fear person; he will do all risk works and hard worker in field. 12 years back he lost his left eye, where the bike he traveled was accident with a car. With in a single eye he will drive bike and tractors. Some years before he got kidney problem and his kidney was failure, they he done kidney transplantation, after the transplantation doctor told him to take rest, but he dint obey, he stared his farm work, yes he is a former. One day he spread insect’s medicine for his field; there he got the trouble, the insect medicine went into his body and again his kidney was failures. Then he did another transplantation, after keeping the kidney in his body the kidney color was changed into blue and the kidney was waste, they removed it. For one and a half years he was living with the help of doing Dialyses. While dialyses he will feel dead pain, but he take it easy and don’t show that in his face. Today morning he was died in his sleep.

I am very surprised to see his work on field, when every we go to his village, he will take us to the field. He will climb the coconut tree and pick the coconuts and give us, he will take us to the forest and will all pick casiunuts (mundhri parupu) and burn it and eat. And we will bath on the small river, where the water will go to field. It was a very happiest days in my life. He has two children. I do no how they will live without their father, is very sad.

Let his soul in peace, god will bless there family.
