Congratulating the honories alongside Nagad's six representatives, Minister Fakir Mahboob Anam stated, “Nagad is currently generating profits for the Postal Department, having recently provided us with a dividend of 18 crore BDT. Therefore, we intend to drive Nagad forward toward even greater milestones.”

Observed under the theme “One Postal Network, Infinite Possibilities,” Postal Service Week runs nationwide from October 9 to 15.
