These
photographs are of Sudhiksha at the Central Telegraph Office, Secunderabad, on
the last day of the functioning of the Telegrams counter here, and of course
all over the country. You can see her handing over a Telegram form of Lalli
Naani, for a Telegram to be sent to Raghu Thaatha as a souvenir. I shall attach a photocopy of that Telegram
as soon as it is received sometime today.
Telegram sent to me by my wife as a Souvenir on 14th July, the last working
day of 163 Years Old Telegraph Services in India:
