To provide basic postal and telecommunication facilities to the Gram Panchayat.<\/p>\n<p>Panchayat Sanchar Sewa Yojana (PSYS) is a government of India initiative to provide basic postal and telecommunication facilities to the Gram Panchayats (GPs). The scheme was launched in 2006 and aims to provide all GPs with access to basic postal and telecommunication services, such as post offices, telephones, and internet connectivity.<\/p>\n<p>The scheme is being implemented by the Department of Posts and Telecommunications (DoPT) and the Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD). The DoPT is responsible for providing postal services, while the MoRD is responsible for providing telecommunication services.<\/p>\n<p>The scheme has been implemented in a phased manner. The first phase of the scheme was completed in 2012, and the second phase is currently underway. The scheme is expected to be completed by 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The scheme has been successful in providing basic postal and telecommunication facilities to the GPs.
