The Nagpur operations of Railway Mail Service (RMS) and Speed Post, both the services of the postal department, have been ranked first in Maharashtra. This was the second consecutive year when both services ranked No 1 in state. Apart from this, the entire Vidarbha region was awarded a rolling trophy for better postal service.
There are 91 offices of the Speed Post in the country. Of these, five are in Maharashtra. Nagpur National Sorting Hub did commendable performance in processing, distribution and collection, beating Mumbai, Pune and other two big Speed Post offices.
