He said: “If a post office does not keep postal stamps, who will? The telecom department? This is pathetic.”
Nazneen Hussain, another resident of Guwahati, who went to the Khanapara post office for postal stamps also complained about “rude behaviour” of the staff of the post office.
“First, they don’t have any postal stamp. Secondly, the behaviour of the employees there was so rude and unprofessional,” Nazneen said.
“I asked them politely to check if there was any postal stamp left somewhere, as I needed to apply for a government job. But they reverted back rudely saying that they don’t have time. They asked me to go to Meghdoot Bhawan. This is so unprofessional,” she said.
She added: “The main question is: Why a post office does not have any postal stamp? The concerned authorities must look into it.”
