The telephone became public gradually. Despite this, people used to sit and write letters. Mobile was introduced and things started changing. With the arrival of Information and Community Technology (ICT), letter writing on paper has become a thing of the past because of its speed. Those who witnessed letter writing era say it was a moment of joy to get a letter and it was celebration time in villages if somebody receives it. Today’s young generation gets messages faster than ever but does not know about the emotion of letters received through post.BoxJoy & happiness lost because fast msg deliveryA prominent education Dr Afsar Khan said that people used to wait for the postman to deliver a letter from their relatives before the Internet.“On getting the letter from the postman - there used to be celebrations and people used to go to schoolmaster to get the letter read. But the process was slow. It used to travel at snail’s pace and used to reach in a week’s time,” he said.Dr Khan said after the Internet’s availability, letters reach faster compared to the pre-internet period.“But the joy and happiness which people used to get in pre-internet period is almost lost.
