Perks of ‘Itwar Bazar’
Itwaar
Bazar is consider as the most ‘Sasta Bazar’ of all the times. But you know
what? You can sell ‘Chori ka Saman’ there too. The
next time you don’t get your parcel, go around Itwaar Bazaar before complaining
anywhere.
“I order many items on Ali Express, China, and
expect it to be delivered at my home address without tampering or stealing. I
have been shopping online for the last seven years, but my parcels have stopped
being delivered for the previous two months; they just vanish into thin air by
the Pakistan Post.
Shockingly, it turns out that the Pakistan Post employees are selling these
parcels in the market and buyers have been selling them online after opening
them. Someone told me that many items are being sold in ‘itwaar bazaar’ every
Sunday in Islamabad.”
Haseeb
seems so dishearted with this unethical act of Pakistan’s Post employees.
He further goes like “I have lost faith in this country. I made orders of
around $200 on the Ali express and received only one package worth $1.67 during
the last two months.”
Moreover,
he revealed that “I tried calling Murad Saeed, the Minister who deals with the
Pakistan Post. Surprisingly, it turns out all the MNA’s have given fake mobile
numbers to the election commission as per their website.”
Upon not receiving
parcels on time Haseeb tried to investigate on his own but left in shock after
the statement of the postman. “I also spoke to my postman, who delivers parcels
to my address in Islamabad. He said packages, which reach Karachi for sorting,
are not being released; the estate enterprise employees either sell them or
take them to their homes.”
How large
is Pakistan Post?
After the partition of the subcontinent
in August 1947, Pakistan Post was established as the official postal service of
Pakistan and has been serving the people of the country ever since.
The company has around 13,000 post offices throughout Pakistan.
Amazingly about 67% of Pakistan Post’s
offices are located in rural areas where most of its private competitors are
absent.
