Sir/Madam,
This is regarding smooth completion of End of Year (EOY) activities for the year 2017-18. Usually, the agent transactions increased at post office counters during the mid-month and month-end period. This month is the last month of the current Financial Year which brings in more customers and more work for post office staff / operations.
Since this year 29-March and 30-March are Holidays for all Circles, we may see some load/ pressure (owing to Agents and FY end activities) on Saturday 31-March and post office staff maybe extending into late hours of the day. This will delay the EOY start in most of the post offices.
Therefore, it is requested to direct all CBS post offices to put a notice at public hall of the post offices informing the general public about the DOP holidays so that customers/agents can be advised to visit the branches and complete their planned activities as much possible by 28-March itself.
With Regards.
