New Delhi [India], May 1 (ANI): Union Ministers Kirti Vardhan Singh and Chandra Sekhar Pemmasani inaugurated the 450th Post Office Passport Seva Kendra (POPSK) in Uttar Pradesh’s Kushinagar on Wednesday, the land that is steeped in history and spirituality, where Lord Buddha attained Mahaparinirvana.
According to the Ministry of External Affairs, the opening of this POPSK is a significant milestone towards enhancing passport accessibility in rural areas and reinforcing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of good governance.
