The Mughals organized it through the Dak Chowki system, and in 1854, Lord Dalhousie established the modern postal department under British rule. From the first postage stamp featuring Queen Victoria to today’s digital India Post, it has grown into the world’s largest postal network — connecting people, emotions, and generations across the nation.
