Description

DHruva (Digital Hub for Reference and Unique Virtual Address) is a project by India Post to revolutionize its delivery system by enabling sending letters and parcels using short digital IDs similar to email addresses or UPI handles. The system uses DigiPINs (Digital Postal Index Numbers) to pinpoint exact locations with unique 10-character alphanumeric codes, enhancing delivery accuracy and reducing confusion caused by incomplete addresses. It is especially useful in rural, forested, hilly terrains and slums where traditional addresses are unreliable.
