Introduction:
Postal services in the rural areas are generally poor and in the context of Manipur, postal services beyond Block HQ are in most cases non-existent. There is therefore a need to bridge this postal gap and the CICs present at the Block Head Quarters can play a major role in bridging this gap.

The Scheme will be a part State Government's effort to introduce citizen centric services at the CICs.

Objective:
To receive e-mail on behalf of recipients and to reach the e-mail to the recipients through the CICs.

Methodology:

1. The Scheme of CIC e-post will be implemented in the Blocks of the Hill districts of Manipur only.
   

2. Under this scheme, CIC Computer Operators will receive e-mail addressed to recipients through the CIC operator's e-mail address.
   

3. On receipt of an e-mail, a copy of the e-mail will be printed out immediately and kept ready for delivery.
   

4. For the purpose of reaching information to recipients on the arrival of e-mail, the CIC Operator will take assistance from concerned Village Authorities, Churches, local organizations, clubs etc.
   

5. The concerned Church, Village Authority, local organizations, clubs etc. should be able to reach information regarding the arrival of email to the concerned recipients on a voluntary basis.
   

6. A list of such e-mails received at the CICs including pending deliveries from previous days/days will be compiled every morning or evening and made available to the concerned local organizations for reaching information to the recipients. The same list should be displayed on the CIC notice board for public information.
   

7. Recipients will collect their e-mails from the CICs on payment of the normal printing charges.
   

8. On delivery to the recipient, the CIC Operator will send a confirmation of delivery to the sender.
   

9. A receipt will be obtained from the recipient in a register which will contain the names of the sender's email address, time with date of receipt , recipient's name and address, recipient's signature and time with date of confirmation of delivery to the sender.
