■With the advent of internet, the importance of letters has declined in urban areas but it still remains the chief mode of communication in rural and semi- urban India.
■In fact in areas where there is no internet connectivity and you are dying to write to your loved ones, these letters come to your rescue. Imagine a soldier posted in a village close to the border remembering his mother and shaping his sentiments into words on a piece of paper.
■Yes, this is how important our postal system is. When all means of communication fail, this is the one you can always rely on.
