Many working people often shift their houses. For them, it is difficult to produce an address proof issued by the Govt with their latest address. You need to intimate all the banks, service providers wait for the verification and then wait for up to a month to get a bill with the relevant details which some authorities would use as an Address proof.
If you find yourselves in this situation, you can approach India Post (our post offices) for a solution. You can get an Address proof along with your photo from India post. Since the ID proof is issued by India post which is a Central government organization, it can be considered as an alternative to Govt ID cards like Driving license, Voters ID etc. This ID can be used for opening bank accounts, getting Telephone/Internet connections etc.
The scheme is already in use in Tamil Nadu and is currently provided in Chennai and Coimbatore where number of industries are high. For other districts, you need to enquire in the head post office of corresponding district. The total cost for getting this ID card is Rs.250/ (Rs.10 for application and Rs.240/- processing fee). For more details please enquire with your nearest post office and also click the links below.
This could be very useful for someone who you know. Please let them know.
