The government has set a target of establishing post offices within a 3-km radius to enhance accessibility, especially in rural and left-wing extremist-affected areas. Over the past decade, 10,500 new post offices have been set up, with the majority in underserved regions. This initiative is part of broader efforts to improve service delivery and connectivity for rural populations, while the postal workforce remains a robust network of 450,000 employees across 165,000+ post offices.
