Islamabad:
An urgent mail sent from Pakistan's Toba Tek Singh town to Karachi
20 years ago in 1991 has finally been delivered.
The urgent mail reached Wednesday, Dawn reported Thursday.
Rafiq Chishti, who had waited endlessly to receive the mail, said
his parents had sent his academic certificates to him in Karachi
in 1991. He was studying in a seminary and the documents were
required to apply for a job.
The documents were posted through the Urgent Mail Service. It's a
postal department service for quick delivery.
The mail didn't reach him and he made several representations to
the authorities, but to no avail.
Chishti said he was informed Wednesday by the present occupant of
his Karachi residence that his mail had reached.
