Jagannath Vedalankar's Correspondence with The Mother

23 October 1948

Gracious Mother,

The postman delivering post to the Press is allowed freely to enter into each and every section. But there, apart from his work, he has free talks with workmen in Tamil. In these days of elections, he has been engaged in talks with them which may prove to be noxious and mischievous.

It seems to be desirable not to allow him inside the Press, but rather to call the persons receiving postal articles to the gate and let them take the delivery of the articles there.

This is the correct way.

Something needs to be done to avoid the indulgence of the postman in random talks.

The arrangement of delivery at the gate must be enforced at once except for the post for B which can be given at the door of his office.

Love and blessings
