India Post Offices in Saraswati, Patan

Saraswati is a rural pocket of Patan district where the post still arrives mainly through small village counters. India Post operates 35 post offices in Saraswati, and 33 of them are branch offices tucked into villages such as Charup, Kansa, Dharusan and Odhva. Only 2 sub offices, around Wagdod and Sariyad, take on the larger counter load.

There is no head office inside the taluka. Records for these offices are routed through the Patan head office, which keeps the accounting tidy without slowing ordinary deliveries.

The whole area runs on 5 PIN codes. You will see 384266, 384272, 384285 and 384290 on local addresses, with 388270 covering the edge of the taluka. A quick look at the PIN code finder confirms which village falls under which code.

Because so many counters here are village branch offices, their hours are short and they shut early, so hand in mail in the morning when you can. For Speed Post and parcels, you can work out the cost in advance using the Speed Post calculator, then browse the wider Patan district post office hub or step over to Harij taluka if you need a sibling area.
