wonder if the government can read the postal letters sent by Indian Post, FedEx, UPS et al

Although I do not like it, I can understand the reasons and consider it a necessary evil. Not sure what prompted the government to take this step. India banned some Chinese telecom equipment makers a few weeks back and now this.
Isn't US giving special powers to the President to get the kill switch for the internet. or at least moving in that direction.
btw, US and UK already monitor the email traffic. So, this is not something new.
