India re-elected to key bodies of Universal Postal Union

New Delhi, Sep 19: India has been re-elected to the Council of Administration (CA) and the Postal Operations Council (POC) of the Universal Postal Union (UPU) at the 28th UPU Congress in Dubai.

The UPU, a specialised UN agency, is the global forum for cooperation in the postal sector.

While the CA deals with policy and governance, the POC focuses on technical and operational matters to modernise postal services worldwide. India’s re-election underscores international confidence in India Post’s reforms and digital innovations, including DigiPIN, UPI-enabled cross-border remittances, and e-commerce facilitation through Dak Ghar Niryat Kendras.
