Letters to the mountain

Not every one in the world has a computer . This means that many people cannot use the internet
.
. or send emails , and have to write and post letters in the traditional way
. ,
But the postal authorities in Himachal Pradesh , a state in the north of India , have introduced
, ,
. A new service for 1their customers 2Which is a combination of traditional mail and email
.
3
People write their letters , then take 4them to 5their local post office .6There , 7they copied and
send by
, . ,
emails to post offices in other parts of the country . Here , the emails are printed out and taken by
, .
. the postman to 8their correct address
.
*************
, Some of these letters , how ever , which are address to very remote places , like the Himalayas
, , , ,
have to be taken by hand to 9their destination . 10They are carried by ' mail runners ' 11who travel
long
" " .
. distances on foot , often through mountains or other very difficult areas
. ,
These post men , 12who wear special uniform and carry a mailbag and a bell , were introduced
, ,
by the Indian post office over 150 years ago , There are now over 1600 " mail runners " in
" " 1600 , 150
. The state of Himachal Pradesh

**************
People in remote villages get very excited when13 they hear the postman's bell because 14they know

that letters are coming for 15them . But the runners bring more than letters . 16They also bring
news
. .
from other villages and from the outside world . Often runners also have to read letters because
.
. many of the villagers in these areas cannot read
.
