The Department of Posts in the Nilgiris has suspended a woman employee on charges of dumping letters meant for distribution. The action was a consequence of undelivered Aadhaar cards and letters found dumped in a bin in O’Valley in Gudalur on Monday, said sources.
Eleven Aadhaar cards and 152 letters addressed to residents of areas coming under the Seemaandurai Post Office were found in the bin. This led to the residents staging a protest in front of the Post Office on Tuesday and the O’Valley Police and postal officials assuring them of stringent action.
The sources said that Postal Inspector Rohini conducted the inquiry and found the delivery person, Ajmal Parveen, guilty of dumping the letters that were supposed to be delivered.
