"Thanks to Prime Minister Narendra
Modi's vision, the postal system is being developed on the lines of
'digital India'," Prasad said here at a function.
He said that it was a matter of pride that electronic transactions had now begun in post offices.
"I can assure that the postal department will take care of postal officials and they would not lose their jobs," Prasad added.

computerised," the minister said.
