India is advancing towards a citizen-centric digital governance ecosystem. In this direction, the Department of Posts (DoP), Ministry of Communications, proposes the Digital Hub for Reference and Unique Virtual Address (DHRUVA) to establish a standardized, interoperable, and user-friendly digital addressing system as part of the national digital public infrastructure. To provide legislative backing to this initiative, draft amendments to the Post Office Act, 2023 have been prepared based on stakeholder consultations. The proposed framework aims to enable secure, consent-based address management and “Address as a Service (AaaS).”

The Department of Posts, in collaboration with MyGov, invites citizens to share their suggestions/ comments on the draft amendments.

The proposed amendments to the Post Office Act, 2023 — especially the introduction of the Digital Hub for Reference and Unique Virtual Address (DHRUVA) — are a timely step toward modernising India’s postal infrastructure. A digital addressing system, if implemented with strong privacy safeguards and clear consent-based opt-in provisions, can greatly improve delivery efficiency and boost digital inclusion for citizens across rural and urban India. It could also reduce paperwork and streamline services like e-commerce deliveries, financial inclusion and KYC processes. At the same time, it’s essential that DHRUVA remains truly voluntary and not mandated, so that citizens can choose digital addressing without replacing physical addresses for those who prefer them. Robust data protection standards and public awareness about how addresses are used and protected will be critical to building trust in this system. Overall, this is a positive initiative that can help bridge traditional postal se

DHRUVA has the potential to be the "Aadhaar for Places." By grounding the legislative framework in user consent and technological neutrality, the Department of Posts will provide a backbone for India’s digital future, making "delivery to the person" as simple as "delivery to a digital ID."

It is difficult to deposit money and take out money from post offices. So many forms are to be filled. The cheque book facility is provided by post office but if I deposit that cheque in some bank then it does not get cleared as the post offices are not part of clearing network. If I have to deposit my other bank cheque in post office then it may take several days. The post offices shall be on banking network and customers shall be able to operate post office saving accounts online similar to any other bank.
