Maybe post offoce can sell online groceries and offer home delivery service. Or they can be a convenient pick-up point for such items if there are no large markets nearby

Sir,One humble request to Create"MISCELLANEOUS GROUP". No doubt MyGov provide its members one stop platform to share views and ideas on issues of national importance but due to lack of just one more group under the head of "MISCELLANEOUS" the topics transcend all the groups due to their scope and importance become less effective. As members have no option to share views and ideas on all other different issues of social importance so they post their such views under the various irrelevant groups.

Milk, vegitables, grocery are daily requirements of each family. Can we make nurve center at post office, from where, area customer book their requirement of milk, vegitables, grocery via SMS, phone, internet, application etc. And post office staff will deliver it. These idea can help us to create new jobs, also support to society to maintain unnecessary price hike by private parties. Also, we can add Cooking gas, electricity, telephone booking, life insurance can be also paid at postoffice.

• Provide training to employees on customer handling. • Tie up with corporate on pickup and deliver posts/parcels. Currently all corporate's are depending on private courier companies. • Integrate post office with public sector banks. Postman knows each one in the villages hence he can help people not only to deliver letters, but also can advise the villagers on new investments which can be made.

Post office network is excellent resource to deliver information and services to all citizens throughout country. All post offices should be provided digital connectivity and an information kiosk. Through these kiosks public should be allowed free access to information and services.
