India Post Delivers Gangajal at Your Doorsteps

BENGALURU: Whether at home or at office, everything from groceries to gadgets, we are getting our daily needs at our comfort place. Is holy water an exception? Though, other online shopping firms such as Amazon and Snapdeal sell bottled holy water, the initiative of India Post will benefit the huge community of India at their nearest place with minimal price.

India Post had taken initiatives to hand over “Gangajal” to the people through their postal services. On 10th of July, 2016, India Post had launched its service to deliver the sacred water “Gangajal” in Patna in the presence of Union Ministers Manoj Sinha and Ravi Shankar Prasad. Sushil Kumar Modi, BJP leader had also shown his presence during the launch. The Holy water would be delivered at the doorsteps of people at reasonable prices by India Post. People can even get the holy water at their nearest post office that spread across the country.

Ministers said that Gangajal from Rishikesh and Gangotri will be made available at all the post office. Sinha said that the Indian Postal Department is consociated with the delivery scheme of Gangajal and it would fulfill the aspects of the people. This initiative has been launched within a short period of its formulation and was deliberated on May 30, 2016, said Prasad.

The price of Gangajal from Rishikesh is sold at Rs 15 for 200ml and Rs 22 for 500ml bottles on 12th of July. Ashok Agarwal, a businessman, was the first person from Kolkata to buy the labeled bottle of Gangajal, after the launch. Abhijit Sarkar, an employee of Jalpaiguri head post office said that people left the counter cursing us on the instant sale of five 200ml bottles collected from Rishikesh.
