Where is the Dunkirk Lines Post Office in Pune?

Update: This article was relevant back in 2012-13. Please validate before any action as I have left Pune many years ago.
The Dunkirk lines post office is named " DUKIRKLINE" in the Indiapost tracking website : http://www.indiapost.gov.in/tracking.aspx

I was struggling to find the location of this post office and found it somehow after 2 days. To start with, you will have first check this wikimapia link to get the approxmate location of the post office:
This is how you reach this place : 
  1. If you are in Kharadi, hit the Nagar Road, take left and travel for about 400 meters. 
  2. If you are in Viman Nagar / Inorbit area, take the Nagar Road and go towards Wagholi / Kharadi for about 1.5 kilometers.
  3. You should hit the Chandan Nagar junction. At one side of the road, there is Chandan Nagar. At the other side of the road, you will see an Air Force gate and some pink colored buildings.
  4. Enter the Air Force gate, and tell the security that you want to go to the post office. The security will ask for your ID proof (I gave my driving licence)
  5. From the Air Force gate, keep going straight for about 1 km. You will hit the main complex where there is Air Force canteen, SBI ATM, and the Post office.
  6. The post office is behind the canteen (it will not be visible from the parking area). Its a typical Indian decrepit government building. 
Tips : 
  • Make sure you have your speed post / registered post reference number
  • Preferably go in the morning before 11 am
  • The phone number of the Dunkirk Lines post office is : 020 - 26632008
  • Speak politely to the officials and your work will get done fast.

Thanks
I followed the same. Except one.
They are taking time for segregation and scanning into the system.
So it is better go between 11-12.
If it is old delivery, then you should go before 10am.

This was very useful for me. Just want to add that the gate on the Nagar road side (opp Chandanagar junction) doesn't allow 4 wheelers. For that, one has to go through the Vimanagar gate.

i went to this place today.. a few new things.. they are not allowing from chandan nagar's side so you have to go through viman nagar's gate.. this is the new airport road.. just keep going straight past phoneix mall, past sri krishna hotel etc etc... helmet is a must to go inside.. finally, they will keep your ID card till you return.

Thank you for the directions.

Thank you so much for the help.

Now they are allowing entry through Viman Nagar only. If you are coming from Wagholi, kharadi or chandan nagar....once you cross Inorbit mall, take right from the square...and go straight till you reach a Big Gate. After the gate take first right and go for around half a kilometre. There is a canteen and Post office is behind the canteen.

This was really useful information. Sir if you could tell under which jurisdiction does Dunkirk Lines post office fall.
I mean there are two Senior Superintendent of Posts in Pune.

East and west.
If you can please tell. It would be great help.

My courier has not been reached, and it is in Dunkirk office. So do they allow us with valid ID proof to go there and collect it.
