Unique digital address for every home in India
The New Indian Express Kollam
|May 31, 2025
AFTER 53 years since the Department of Posts adopted the PIN CODE system, a path-breaking digital initiative has been launched by the department with an aim to further reduce emergency response time and ensure better citizen-centric delivery of public and private services.
The Department of Posts has recently launched a digital addressing system based on geographical data. This marks a major upgrade over the present pin code system which is area-specific, as it would be unique for each residence or office.
"The National Addressing Grid or Digital Postal Index Number (DIGIPIN) will speed up service delivery and emergency response," said a senior official in the department.
It has been developed in collaboration with the ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation), Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad and NRSC (National Remote Sensing Centre).
