           Union Minister of Communications Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad today said that the Department of Posts should strive for 25 crore postal savings accounts from the current 17 crore in coming years and should make efforts to link the same with the accounts of India Post Payments Bank for achieving the goal of financial inclusion. Speaking at an event of National Postal Week Celebrations here, the Minister urged the department to enhance considerably postal insurance accounts. He said that 3.05 crore insurance accounts in a population of 130 crore is unacceptable. He said that Postal Department should come forward to forge partnership with global companies and the administrative issues, if any, would be resolved amicably.
         Shri Prasad asked the senior officials to work on a set of special stamps on Mahabalipuram (Mamallapuram) in the wake of successful informal summit between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping due to its historic significance. He also directed the department of posts to organize a special letter writing competition on Bapu as a tribute to 150th Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, besides coming out with a set of stamps on unsung heroes of freedom movement and particularly of those imprisoned in Cellular Jail in Andaman & Nicobar Islands.
      The Minister released a Mobile Banking App for POSB customers, commemorative postage stamps on India Perfumes Agarwood and Orange Blossom and launched a Performance Dashboard of the Department of Posts. He also distributed prizes for DhaiAkhar Letter Writing competition and felicitated Meghdoot  Awardees for their exceptional contribution.
