Significance of World Post Day

October 9 is world post day. It celebrates worldwide, including Pakistan, which aims to improve the postal system, and highlights the importance of the postal department and its performance. The first postal day in the world was celebrated on October 9, 1980. More than 160 countries celebrate this World Day, and every government member of the United Nations Special Organization University Postal Union (UPU) issues unique stamps. It established the individual institution was                                                                                                                                                                                                        On October 9, 1847. The purpose of this day's celebration is to legislate the postal delivery system between the countries, highlight the importance and utility of the post despite the innovation of the new era, and make efforts to develop the plan.

The postal department is one of the ancient government departments in the subcontinent; the first post office was established in 1837, but for a long time, British stamps continued to work, and eventually, the first stamp was issued by Sir Bartley Frier in 1852. Writing a letter for messaging is the oldest history of humanity. In today's technology, when a message is being sent from one corner of the world through hundreds of apps, the tradition of the letter is dissolved. Even today, the heads of government seem to be moving essential issues of international relations by writing a letter to each other. 

If we talk about our region, the postal system in the subcontinent was particularly strong before the arrival of the rulers. Earlier, the postal service was used by kings and rulers. The old-fashioned robbers, the whole country, had a sound delivery system. Such a person was appointed as a person who could carry out all kinds of activities. He knew the use of swords and spears along with musical instruments and was capable of running fast. Every person needed to run fast tools because they had to cross the rivers and dense wars. They could face an animal or a bandit. But it is the religion of the British Raj to give a person a mail carrier and to raise the bell instead of a device. The British started the company postage service. The postal system is historical and global. A feature of this system is that its historical reference is related to Pharaoh 7000 years ago today. In Babylon, the public and private posts were carried out from one city to another through fresh camels and horses.

The post office is one of the oldest government departments in the subcontinent. The first post office in the subcontinent was settled in 1837, but for a long time, British stamps have been working, and eventually, the first stamp was issued by Sir Bartley Frier in 1852. This stamp was the British pronunciation of the word 'Sindh Dak.' When the British conquered Sindh, the ancient system of a post here was insufficient to meet their military needs, which led to the modern postal system. After becoming Pakistan, on August 15, 1947, the Pakistan Post started its work from Lahore, and the same year became the 79th member of the Pakistan Universal Postal Union. In 1948, the Pakistan Post published its first commemorative tickets on the country's first celebration of Independence. In 1962, it was separated from the Telegraph and Telephone and made a separate post department.

At present, Pakistan Post is not only providing postal services in every corner of the country through a network of at least 13 thousand postal boxes but also collects electricity, water, needle gas and telephone bills. Bank saving, Postal Life Insurance and tax matters also perform.

The history of sending a letter or messaging is also strange. Previously, pet pigeons were used regularly to send messages or messages. They used to fly pigeons far away. They were used not only to convey the message to the house but also to message the battlefield. After that, they adapted this series of messages in different ways.

The word is derived from the French word' posti', which means a specific place. Suppose we discuss the postal date, and a Chinese king started the post in 2000 BC. He worked to bring the post from one place to another with the help of horses and mules. Sher Shah Suri expanded it further in our region by 1945 1540 and formed a complete postal system from Sindh to Bengal. Under this system, fresh horses changed the letters to their destination at a short distance. This delivery letter was present in many societies to meet the government's needs, but Sher Shah Suri introduced this procedure and convenience to the public. Historians say Queen Elizabeth also developed a regular royal mile system until 1590 1566. As far as Sindh is concerned, the British have played a significant role in advancing the plan.

The English Commissioner, Sir Bartley Farmer, not only created a complete postal system but also issued a stamp in 1852, which was red, and Sindh District Post was registered. The price of this stamp was fixed by half. Sindh also sent letters through pigeons, pedestrians, horses, and food, which became further advanced after the Bartley system. Later, established a modern postal system under the Post Office Act of 1898 in the Indian subcontinent. On July 9, 1948,  printed a ticket with the slogans of Pakistan Zindabad and then rows of post offices were set up in the country. And the number of people writing letters also increased dramatically.

Earlier, if people were awake early in the morning, they used to wait for the postman. If the postman had brought a suitable newsletter, people would have been honored and rewarded. In Pakistan, the postal department is still the only postal delivery company in the country whose post office is also located in small villages and towns. Only if the postal department can do this. The postal department has issued more than 1 thousand stamps in Pakistan. They have pictures of kings and celebrities and photos of buildings, and these tickets show the diversity of topics. In 2006, a colorful catalog of twelve hundred and fifty tickets issued from Pakistan's first stamp to the first month of 2000 was published from Lahore and those who could not get the original old ticket. Access to these tickets. This catalog of stamps shows that if Pakistan came into existence, the word Pakistan was immediately published on the British Test tickets and used as the country's first interim tickets and later in Karachi. It was reprinted.

The Universal Postal Union has described the Switzerland postal system as the best. Austria is second in the ten best countries, and Germany is third. In the following setting, postal systems in the Netherlands, Japan, France, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Singapore are considered glorious.
