Link failure in post offices across Odisha; customers miffed

People visiting head post offices across the state are undergoing distressing experiences as they can neither deposit money nor withdraw it, nor do any online transactions, thanks to alleged link failures. 

If you visit the General Post Office, in Bhubaneswar, there are ‘link failure’ sign boards to welcome you. You will also find some staff lying back in their seats. You will also find some seats vacant. 

In such a situation, the customers visiting the post office to either deposit or withdraw money are at the receiving end. Not getting any satisfactory answers from anyone, they can be seen returning dejected. They find it difficult to digest that they are facing problems due to alleged link failure, that too in this digital age.
