The Department of Posts will roll out post office savings bank ATMs at all 94 Head Post Offices (HPO) in Tamil Nadu in the coming 6 months period.
Presently, there is one ATM functioning at T. Nagar, Chennai.
In the first phase, ATMs will be established at all 94 HPOs.
The ATM centre is under construction at the Vellore HPO.
Establishing ATMs comes under the Core Banking Solutions (CBS) initiative of the Department of Posts.
Under CBS, post offices are being networked to enable account holders to carry out transactions in select post offices across the country.
There are 275 CBS centres across Tamil Nadu.
A post office will function like any commercial bank.
The first CBS post office was launched in Tamil Nadu.
The Postal department will take steps to release a stamp of CMC founder Ida Scudder on her 145th or 150th birth anniversary.
