India Post.

That is the notice that I received after I had received a parcel from Amazon India. On checking back on some other orders, I found that this was the second time that a parcel had been delivered to me by India Posts.

I think that this is a remarkable innovation from a Government Department which had lost the parcel and speed post business to couriers. On investigating on the web for how this came about, I found this article which gives a detailed analysis of what is happening.

I am impressed.
