Monthly Journal of All India Postal Employees Union Group 'C',(CHQ)

Dada Ghosh Bhawan, 2151/1, New Patel Nagar, New Delhi-110008

Editor: K.V. SRIDHARAN

There is a misapprehension in the minds ofsome of our members that our Union / Federation

has consented to the Government to expel or eliminate

of ED Union from NFPE.

Not even an iota of truth in the purported false

propaganda. The Federation Circular dated 29-05-

2007 would have cleared all the doubts prevailing

hitherto and no other explanation needs at this

juncture.

The Department of Personnel which is the

nodal ministry forming and framing the policy of the

Government of India has categorically stipulated that

Federations can be formed and recognised onlyamong the unions which cover the Government

servants to whom CCS (Conduct) Rules 1964 apply

and granted recognition under the RSA Rules 1993.

Since the GDS Union is recognised under

different set of rules framed locally by the Department

of Posts, the DoP&T time and again rejected our

request for the inclusion of GDS Union in the

Federation. Now we are pushing to the wall either to

accept recognition without GDS Union or remain

without recognition.

We have not participated the first verification

of membership in 1995 duly rejecting the various

provisions of the recognition of service associationrules. FNPO & BPEF participated. The FNPO, thus

could secure more than 15%. Thereafter we

participated in the second verification held in 1997 in

which we secured the first position. In the first

verification for GDS, in 1997, there is only one union

(i.e. AIPEDE Union) recognised. If we would have

missed the bus then, the loss would have been

miserable.

Similar is the position now. FNPO has applied

for recognition as per DoP&T guidelines. We cannot

be left in isolation. The decision of the NFPE thatwe can get recognition first and continue our efforts

for the inclusion of GDS Union is the only alternative

available. Till then the GDS Union remains part &

parcel of the NFPE as an associated member and

will have all rights unofficially except holding offices

which is prohibited due to the DoP&T guidelines.

In many circles there is no RJCM; No regular

periodical meeting or Departmental Council meeting

since 1995; No nomination of fresh members;

Resultantly the conciliation machinery become totally

defunct. Without official recognition, nothing is

possible to mitigate demands and improve thesituation. One should accept the fact that without

proper recognition of the Government, we could not

clinch even small issues and take forward our

movement further. We have no other alternative!

Unless the policy of the Government is

changed and liberalise the Federation recognition

rules which is practically impossible to exercise

since 2002 to till day, there is no chance in the

immediate nearby to modify the policy of the

Government in this regard. We are in between Fire

and Frying Pan; Devil and Deep Sea. We have to

come out from the situation without anyt damage toour movement.

Let us be practical and plain. Let us notdrift

or dither away with imaginary thinkings and forget

the reality and reasons. Let us not play any game

for the sake of others. Let us realise the reality and

consider the only option available before us to accept

recognition and fight further for the inclusion of GDS

union in our Federation. Let us think positively, act,

advance and achieve our goal to affiliate GDS Union

in future by sustained struggles after availing

recognition to our Federation.

2BHARTIYA POST JULY, 2007

LETTERS TO DEPARTMENTLetter No.P/2-13/Mah Cle Dated: 06 June 2007

address to the Secretary, Department of Posts

l Acceptance of cheques in Savings Bank

Account if maximum limit is likely to exceed -

reg.

Ref.: This union letter of even number dated

20-03-2007

Apropos reference, I wish to state that no

clarification on this account has been issued so far by

the Directorate.

The clarification sought from the Directorate by

the Pr. Chief PMG, Maharashtra Circle whether to

accept cheques in case if the cheque is issued against

maturity of any of our POSB scheme in the POSB

account which will encourage the customers or not. If

the limit of single & joint accounts is enhanced, it will

certainly bring more business.

It is requested to consider the same and cause

orders enhancing the limit at the earliest.

A line in reply about the action taken is highly

solicited.

Letter No. P/2-14/Cle Dated: 06 June 2007

addressed to the Secretary, Department of Posts

l Alarming & tense situation prevailing in

Madhya Pradesh Circle - request effective

intervention.

Ref.: This union letter of even no. dated 01-02-

2007, 08-02-2007 & 20-03-2007

A kind attention is invited to the assurance given

during discussions on the subject that you will

effectively intervene and render justice to the affected

officials.

Whereas our Circle Secretary, Sri S.C. Jain has

been proceeded under Rule 14 charges with the

fabricated and concocted charges that he along with

the Divisional Secretary, Rajput entered the chamber

of PSD Bhopal without permission and disturbed his

official duties and also he had given press statement.

This is nothing but to aggravate the situations

and such vindictive actions based on the direction of

circle head is deplorable and causing concern.

Similarly, the retransfer to PSD or any bigger offices

requested by the Circle Secretary has been turned

down by the circle office. No formal / informal meetings

has been entertained by the circle head since January

2007 resulting accumulation of problems.

Under these circumstances, I fervently request

to kindly intervene and restore the situation to normalcy

besides arresting vendettas and vindictive actions.

Your immediate intervention is highly solicited.

Letter No. P/2-15/Agartala Dated: 06 June 2007


l Non-according BCR promotion -- case of

Agartala Division, North East Circle - reg.

Despite the issue discussed with the DPS,

Agartala in the Bi-monthly meeting by the Circle Union,

no action has been initiated so far to accord BCR

promotion to the eligible officials. The review, as learnt

is pending for years and many officials have retired

without conferring BCR promotion. This causes a

concern.

It is therefore requested to cause necessary

orders to NE Circle to accord BCR promotion to the

eligible officials without any further delay.

Soliciting response.

Letter No.P/2-15/Agartala Dated: 06 June 2007


l Immunity from transfer for the Treasurer,

AIPEU Group 'C', Agartala Division in North East

Circle - reg.

It is brought to our notice that the immunity

transfer to the Headquarters requested by the newly

elected divisional treasurer of Agartala Division Sri Sabir

Kanti Bhusan has not been considered and transferred

to other post office.

It is requested to cause necessary instructions

to consider immunity transfer to the newly elected

treasurer as per the guidelines of the Directorate.

Soliciting response,

Letter No. P/2-16/Or Cle Dated: 08 June 2007


l Meagre allocation of funds under computer

loan in Orissa Circle - reg.

It is brought to our notice that a sum of Rs.

1,20,000/- (One lakh twenty thousand) has been

allotted to Orissa Circle for sanction of computer

advance to the staff. This amount is sufficient to pay

advance to three applicants only @Rs. 30,000/- each

whereas near about 200 applications have been

received and pending. Therefore, nearly 60 lakhs of

rupees are required to be allotted as funds under the

head computer advance to Orissa Circle to promote

computer knowledge amidst the officials willing to

obtain loan for the purchase of computers.

It is therefore requested that required amount

may please be allotted to Orissa Circle and also


sufficiently to all other circles.


Letter No. P/2-19/TN Cle Dated: 08 June 2007


l Deputation of accounts qualified staff

working in Tamilnadu Circle to the DOT-CELL

controller of communication accounts as Senior

Acct / Junior Actt.

The DOT Cell in Chennai has called for

volunteers vide their letter No. CCS /TN/Admin/JA.

Recruit/06/6 dated 15-02-2007. Accordingly the Chief

PMG called for applications among the PA / SA cadre

with accounts qualification and computer knowledge.

It seems that about 100 applications have been received

and forwarded to the DOT Cell. Among those

applications 55 have been shortlisted for DPC

procedure by the DOT and the CRS were called for.

But only 20 CRS have been sent by the Circle

administration to the DOT. In the DPC of the DOT 18

officials have been selected for the post of Senior

Accountants in Rs. 5500 scale. The select list was

sent to the Pr. Chief PMG, Tamilnadu Circle and the

relief is requested.

It is learnt that the Circle Administration has

decided not to relieve any official. Most of the selected

officials are qualified JAOs and PO and RMS

Accountants. This will result in denial of dues. Already

7 JAOs posts in Tamilnadu are being manned by the

Railway Staff on deputation due to the same decision

taken earlier by the Circle Administration.

Since we are demanding and finding ways to

wipe out JAO qualified list, the decision of the Circle

Administration even not in favour of deputation is

causing concern and dependable.

It is therefore requested to cause instructions

to relieve shortlisted 18 officials on deputation so that

the officials will get their dues.


Letter No. P/2-20/Varanasi West, Dated: 06 June 2007


l Imposing of penalty in the shape of

monetary recovery on contributory factor -- case

of Taliabag SO fraud in Varanasi West Division,

Uttar Pradesh Circle

Ref.: This union letter of even number dated

08-02-2007

Apropos reference, it is constrained to note that

instead of initiating action to confiscate the properly

and belongings of the main offender, the SSPOs is

now unleashing action against 60 more innocent

officials under contributory factor. No action has been

taken against the inspecting officer since 1995 to 2004

who contributed major factor in this episode. This

causes a concern.

The spirit of the Directorate instructions

contained in letter No. C-32016/07/2006-UP dated 14-

11-2006 has been totally defeated and the innocents

are fixed as scapegoats leaving the main offender scat

free.

It is to requested kindly intervene and save the

innocents from the orders of recovery and render justice

and fair play.

Soliciting immediate action.

Letter No.P/2-21/Cle Dated: 08 June 2007

addressed to the DDG (P), Department of Posts

l Non-filling up of selection grade posts --

case of Uttarakhand Circle - reg.

It is brought to our notice that despite effective

efforts taken by the Directorate, the process of filling

up of LSG posts on notional basis has not been

commenced in the said circle. This is unwarrantly

delayed at circle office.

Similarly the vacant post of Deputy Postmaster,

Pithoragarh has not been filled up so far despite the

fact that it is brought to our notice earlier.

The PA gradation list for grant LSG promotion

has also not been prepared and finalised so far.

It is therefore requested to cause necessary

instruction to complete the process and monitor the

progress.


Letter No.P/2-21/UK Cle Dated: 08 June 2007


Non-payment of Remote Locality

Allowance to some places -- case of Uttarakhand

Circle - reg.

It is brought to our notice that the officials working

in Champa district at places like Tankpur, Chandani,

Banbana, have not been paid with RLA whereas the

same has been paid to other central government

employees like Central School, Railway etc.

The issue was taken by the circle union with

the Circle Administration and it is learnt that file is

being tossed from pillar to post over the years.

Resultantly, the postal employees stationed at those

places could not get their dues.

It is therefore requested to cause expedite action

to obtain sanction for the grant of RLA to our

employees also at the earliest.



LETTERS TO DG (P)

Letter No.P/2-15/NE cle Dated: 22 May 2007addressed to DDG(P), Department of Postsl Non-holding of DPC for BCR promotion --case of North East Circle.

This causes a concern.It is requested to cause instructions to hold DPC forBCR promotion within a time frame and ensureimmediate release of orders.Letter No.P/4-15/Demands Dated: 23 May 2007addressed to Secretary, Department of Postsl Charter of Demands -- settlement thereon - reg.

Kindly refer to this union letter of even numberdated 14th February 2007 on the subject mentionedabove and sorry to inform you that no action has sofar been taken to bring the local administration on rail.The harassment of staff is still continuing. It may beout of place to mention that Divisional Superintendent,Kota, after informing about the complaints of the unionhas issued orders of non payment of retrial benefits ofShri B.P. Gupta, Dy. Postmaster, Kota HO andPresident of our Divisional Union, the reason bestknown to him.

In nutshell, the entire staff working underSouthern Region of Rajasthan Circle are put into


untold sufferings.You are, therefore, once again requested to

intervene into the matter and put a halt of theexcessiveness and arbitrary misuse of powers of theDivisional Superintendent.

A line in reply about the action taken is highlysolicited.Letter No. P/2-17/Hoshiarpur Dated: 30 May 2007addressed to DDG (P), Department of Postsl Induction Training to the direct recruitees -- case of Hoshiarpur Division in Punjab Circle -reg.

It is brought to our notice that due to the courtcase filed by a GDS about the recruitment of PostalAssistants from open market for the unfilled up residualvacancies, the recruitment process for 13 PA postsmade in 2005 has been stopped. Now, the CAT hasdismissed the petition on 19-01-2007. However, thecandidates selected for the vacancies at HoshiarpurDivision have not been imparted with the inductiontraining.The reason for such delay, as stated, is due to non-receipt of reports about the character verifications,antecedents etc. from the District Magistrates. Thisis pending over year. The next induction training isstarting from June 2007.It is therefore requested to cause instructions to theChief PMG, Punjab Circle to depute the candidates tothe Training provisionally pending verification of thecertificates and cause filling up of the vacancies onregular measure after their training.A line in reply about the action taken is highly solicited.Letter No. P/4-1/India Post Dated: 30 May 2007addressed to Secretary, Department of Postsl Road Map of India Post -- Measures for op-timum utilisation of manpower - reg.

It is rather dismayed to hear that the Directo-rate has sought comments & suggestions to restruc-ture the Divisions and Head post offices, PSD, CSDetc. vide its letter No. 25-14-2007-PE.I dated 30-04-2007 which is quite against to the assurance madeduring the talks held on 19-04-2007 that there will beno merger of divisions / post offices.

The proposal, as it seems, has very seriousrepercussions and will dismantle the existing struc-ture. We record our concern and it is requested todrop such proposals in toto and allow status quo whichis viable and proved practical.Letter No. P/4-1/Promotion Dated: 30 May 2007addressed to Secretary, Department of Postsl Deprivation caused to incumbents officiat-ing to Higher Posts on adhoc basis---regarding.

In accordance with the existing provision of FR-22 (I)(a) (1), an official who has been promoted or ap-pointed to a higher post, i.e. any post involving higher

duties and responsibilities, either on substantive oron adhoc/officiating basis, is likely to get the benefitof continuance to the said higher post as far as exer-cising option for formal pay fixation on being regularlyappointed to the same (higher) post is concerned. Thesaid option will become in force from the date of initialadhoc appointment/promotion and is subjected to thecondition that the said adhoc appointment/promotionis followed by substantive/regular appointment/promo-tion to the said (higher) post without any break.In accordance to the existing ruling position (issuedby the DoPT), an official can not hold any higher poston adhoc/officiating basis continuously for a period ofmore than 1 (one) year at a stretch. As such, thenormal convention is that the officiating incumbent isreverted back to his/her substantive incumbency be-fore completion of 1 (one) year and subsequently he/she is again promoted/appointed, on adhoc basis, tothe same higher post just after, if he/she is otherwiseeligible for the same.

The negative aspect in relation to this existingruling position is that the official is unnecessarily de-prived from getting the benefit of continuation as far asexercising option on regular appointment is concernedand in turn, the official is hugely deprived from mon-etary aspect in relation to formal pay-fixation underFR-22 (I) (a) (1). This scenario is mostly observed innumerous cases of promotion to HSG-I.

The matter is totally in contravention of the

Principle of Natural Justice. It has also been observed

that the position is not the same in cases of ASPO s/

ASRM s officiating against PS Group-B posts. This

kind of discrimination in the same Department actu-

ally brings down the staff morale of Gr-C cadre em-

ployees. The matter may please be looked into at

the earliest and the relaxation to the ruling position

may please be provided.

Letter No.P/4-1/LSG Dated: 30 May 2007

addressed to DDG (P), Department of Posts

l Grant of LSG Notional Promotion - reg.

While thanking the good gesture in issuing clari-

fications about the grant of notional promotion from

the date it was discontinued, which is purposeful, I

wish to request to consider that the unfilled up 2/3rd

vacancies in LSG earmarked from 2002 to 2006 may

also be filled up along with 1/3rd vacancies among the

senior officials on notional basis.

This will facilitate to have more number of eligible LSG

official to avail HSG.II promotion, without resorting to

exemption and seniors will be benefited due to their

early LSG promotion.

It is therefore requested to consider the same and

accord orders early.


NATIONAL FEDERATION OF POSTAL EMPLOYEES1st Floor, North Avenue Post Office Building, New Delhi-110001

No. PF-12(e)/2006 Dated : 29th May, 2007

RECOGNITION OF FEDERATIONS

Dear Comrades,

The Central Government has issued guidelines

vide DOP&T No. 2/14/98-JCA dated 3rd July 2002 for

recognition of Federations. The Central Civil Services

(Recognitions of Service Associations) Rules-1993

covers all Central Government Employees to whom

the CCS (Conduct) Rules 1964 apply. The approval of

recognition to the Federation would be accorded only

with the federating unions / Associations recognized

under CCS (RSA) Rules 1993. It was clarified by the

DOP&T and Department of Posts that the Unions

recognized under CCS(RSA) Rules-1993 are only

eligible for affiliation. Unions recognized under different

rules in the Department of Posts are not eligible to be

federated with the Federation.

However, the National Federation of Postal

Employees in its Federal Executive meeting held on

14th August, 2002 decided to apply for Recognition of

the Federation with all unions including ED Union. It

was also decided that if the Govt. not accepting it,

then we can resubmit the application accordingly. The

NFPE has submitted application on 22nd August, 2002.

There was no response from the Govt. for long period.

When queries were made in this regard, it was revealed

that the verification of membership results held in

November 2000 could not be announced due to the

Stay Order granted by the Hon'ble Chennai High Court

on a petition filed by the BPEF. The NFPE then

decided to implead in the court case pending since

2000. The Hon'ble High Court of Chennai vacated the

stay order for announcement of verification results

during April, 2006. Accordingly, The Department of

Posts ordered recognition of unions secured eligible

membership on 30th June, 2006. All our affiliates

secured status of first Unions in the Department of

Posts. There after the Department of Posts had asked

to submit the application for recognition of Federations

under CCS (RSA) Rules - 1993. The NFPE had

submitted application for recognition of the Federation

to the Department of Posts on 26th June, 2006

federating all unions including ED union.

The Department of Posts vide letter No. 6-2/

2002-SR (Vol.II) dated 13th July 2006, after scrutiny

of the application intimated that the ED Union can not

be allowed to federate with the Federations as they

are not regular / full time Central Govt. Employees,

according to DOP&T. On receipt of this communication

from the Govt., all General Secretaries including ED

Union met Secretary (Posts) on 20th July, 2006 and

requested for an appropriate action for affiliation of ED

Union. The NFPE had also taken up with the Hon'ble

Minister (C) for appropriate action at his level vide its

No. PF-124/2006 dated 7th August, 2006.

Recognition of Federation was one of the items

in the Charter of Demands, for which indefinite strike

notice was served to the Department w.e.f. 24th April,

2007. The Department of Posts communicated to the

NFPE the item wise position of the strike charter vide

letter No. 8-1/2007(SR) Pt. of dated 22-2-2007 in which

it was stated that on the initiative of the ED Union Shri

Gurudas Dasgupta, Member of Parliament (Lok Sabha)

wrote to the DOP&T for affiliation of unions representing

Gramin Dak Sewaks with the Federation which is not

in the line with the Policy of the Government.

The DOP&T vide No. 2/5/2006-JCA dated 19th

April, 2007 ordered that All India Postal Extra

Departmental Employees Union included as one of

the affiliates of the Federation by the NFPE is not

eligible for affiliation and the same will not be treated

as Federated with the NFPE. The proposal of the

Federation to federate All India Postal Accts.

Employees Association has been approved. The

DOP&T and the Dept. of Posts vide DG (Posts) No. 6-

2/2002-SR(Vol.III) dated 24-4-2007 has asked the

Federation to modify the constitutional provisions of

NFPE as per the observations made by them in their

letters referred above. The NFPE had replied to the

Dept. of Posts for granting recognition of Federation

with all relevant documents required to be submitted

to the Department from the Unions recognized under

CCS (RSA)Rule-1993.


All Unions are of the firm view to obtain

recognition to the Federation. Accordingly, Federal

Secretariat meeting was held on 30th April 2007.

Available office bearers and General Secretaries were

present in the meeting. Com. S.S. Mahadevaiah GS,

ED union demanded not to accept the recognition to

NFPE without ED union. All other leaders present

expressed their desire to get the recognition first and

then continue efforts for inclusion of GDS in the

Federation. The Secretary General has conveyed in

the meeting that the NFPE will continue its efforts as

before for settlement of their legitimate demands and

they will remain as part of the postal fraternity. The

NFPE only had all along struggled for the cause of

GDS and will continue to be an umbrella organisation

for safeguarding the interest of entirety of Postal

Workers including GDS.

The NFPE has neither elimated nor expelled

E.D. Union from the Federation at any point of time.

Despite our best efforts we could not concede the

demand for affiliation of ED Union due to the existing

Policy, rules and instructions of the Govt. on recognition

of Unions and Federations in the Central Govt.

Departments including Dept. of Posts. However, we

will continue our sincere and serious efforts for

inclusion of GDS Union under the banner of NFPE.

Federation in the Dept. of Posts were

unrecognized since 1995. Negotiating forums at all

levels were not available till now. JCM Regional

Councils, Departmental Council, National Council,

Periodical Meetings etc. are totally paralyzed. We

managed with limited facilities all these years

Recognition of the Federation will only strengthen the

movement further. It will also facilitate improvement in

the long pending burning issues of GDS employees.

False propaganda unleashed by ED union CHQ and

some vested interests against seeking recognition of

the Federation is not in the interest of the Postal

Workers including GDS.

In view of the details dwelt in the above paras

we call upon all Circle/Divisional/Branch Secretaries

to hold General body meetings and explain the reality

of the situations and unify the entirety of Postal

Employees to resist the onslaughts to achieve the

legitimate demands of postal workers.

All officials elected in the Federal Council

Secession held during November 2004 at

Thiruvananthapuram (Kerala) as office bearers, and

subsequently retired from service, and GDS officials

elected as office bearers will cease to be office bearers

of the Federation on recognition of National Federation

of Postal Employees.

All General Secretaries and Circle Secretaries

are requested to circulate this circular to all Divisions

and Branch unions and direct them to hold general

body meetings and report the whole developments to

all postal workers.

Let us unite and march ahead.

With Fraternal Greetings.

Yours Comradely,

FROM GENERAL SECRETARY'S DESK

Introspection

Dear Comrades,

After a long time, I am interacting with my

Branch / Divisional Secretaries through this News letter.

Since we assumed charge in the CHQ, 250 days have

gone. It needs a self introspection about the

functioning of the CHQ to correct the errors and

mistakes and also enrich its functioning further. I

request the Feed back from my Branch / Divisional

Secretaries.

I can proudly say that now we are concentrating

our own demands, which are pending years together.

Almost all the LSG, HSG.II, HSG.I, posts are being

filled up. You could realise the swift action. The

vacancies pending since 2000-2001 under residual are

being filled up. Many orders we obtained for our P-III

comrades. The submission of memorandum to Sixth

Pay Commission, oral evidence, further meetings etc.

are the testimony to gauge our commitment to this

august organisation. I am really expecting a feed back

from all of you whether it will be an appreciation or

constructive criticism.

Now, let us come to the recent developments

after the publication of Bhartiya Post June 2007 issue.

Meeting with DDG (P) on 21st May 2007

1. Filling up of Residual Vacancies

The Directorate has issued orders vide letter No. 60-

5/2007-SPB.I dated 15-05-2007 in which, all the Circle

Heads were addressed to fill up all the residual

vacancies (unfilled vacancies under Departmental

Quota) immediately. The copy of the order is printed

elsewhere.

(All Circle Secretaries are requested to take follow

up action at their circle offices. First please ascertain

the unfilled up vacancies from 2000-01 to 2005-06. Then

cause action to fill up the vacancies either among the

eligible GDS or by direct recruitment. For example, in

Tamilnadu Circle, there are 858 residual vacancies just

for three years from 2001-02 to 2003-04. So, please

imagine. Same will be the position in the remaining circles

also. Each circle will definitely have such PA vacancies

(vi) In respect of grant of one time modification of

judgment whether it is positive or negative to either

side. The process will commence soon after the

receipt of the judgment.

Developments on 22-05-2007

With regard to discussions on strike demands

with DDG (P) in which under item 2 (v) in the earlier topic

I have mentioned that a detailed clarification will be issued

by the Directorate about notional LSG promotion.

Accordingly, the department has caused

instructions vide its letter No. 137-4/2006-SPB-II dated

22-05-2007 and the copy of the same is enclosed.

This will be useful and purposeful to remove the

anomalies existing in the grant of notional promotion.

Notional promotion is not an one time exercise and

this should be reviewed.

All are requested to verify the notional promotion

list and if any mistakes found, it can be settled at

your level by utilising this clarificatory orders.

demands, a letter was handed over and discussed

with the Secretary, Department of Posts on 23-05-

necessary orders.

Seminar on 24-05-2007

The department organised a seminar about the

proposal of the department for 11th Planning

Commission and had interaction with the Trade Union

leaders. It lasted for 5 hours. The important

documents produced during the seminar are exhibited

in our P-III CHQ E-Mail Box i.e. [email protected]

Password for this E-Mail Box is aipeuc. Please

download and keep for your records.

In the seminar, we interacted in many areas

about revenue, Business Post, Training, incentives to

staff etc. In nutshell the meeting was purposeful.

Discussions with DDG (P) on 25-05-2007

about PO and RMS Accountants problems

The discussions had taken place on 25-05-2007

at 11:00 hrs. and I insisted the following to mitigate

the problems.

(i) As number of APM LSG Accounts (Feeder

Cadre) is lesser and many of them have been upgraded

to HSG.II earlier, some HSG.II APM Accounts post

be reduced to the status of LSG and maintain the

ratio of LSG, HSG.II & HSG.I as 40:40:20.

(ii) According to Recruitment Rules, the date of

qualifying the PO and RMS Accountants Exam shall

be the determining factor for promotion to APM

Accounts and the vacant posts be filled up as per the

Recruitment Rules.

From the department side, the following were stated:-

(i) Earlier, as most of the HSG.II / HSG.I vacancies

were occupied by the Accounts line officials, the

reservation of 20% has been withdrawn based on the

demands of the staff side. As such there is no chance of

revival of reservation to APM Accounts in HSG.II & HSG.I.

(ii) If the General line officials in HSG.II are posted

as APM Accounts, they can be imparted with

adequate training on accounts matters since the

Accounts line has lost its identity.

(iii) If the LSG APM Accounts Rules is revived, there

is a chance of occupying the HSG.II & HSG.I posts

by such officials only and in long run it will deny


promotions to General line officials.

Therefore, I discussed and suggested the following.

(i) Accounts line may be declared as a separate cadre

and number of HSG.II & HSG.I may be provided

for their promotional avenues. There is no need to

occupy their lines by General line officials and vice

versa.

(ii) The seniority list of PO and RMS Accountants

qualified officials be maintained at circle level to

accord LSG promotion based on the date of

qualification. The officials who did not get LSG

promotion in Accounts line may join with the main

stream and as and when due for regular LSG

(General line) based on the PA Gradation list.

(iii) As per the 1958 & 1959 instructions, fresh

options may be obtained from the existing PO

and RMS qualified officials either to opt or out

from the Accounts line. Based on this Gradation

list be maintained.

The Department in its sharp reaction mentioned

that there is no chance of keeping two-gradation list

for one cadre and keeping two avenues of promotions

as per the DoP&T guidelines. It sought and other

suggestions other than this. We did not subscribe to

the revival of old defunct cadre of PO and RMS

Accountant.

Finally, we told that the grievances of the PO

and RMS Accounts qualified officials in according their

LSG / HSG.II / HSG.I promotions should be settled

based on the discussions to evolve any formula other

than we suggested without affecting the interest of

both Accounts / General line officials. We placed that

the PO and RMS Accountants posts should be

upgraded to a promotional post equal to LSG to sort

out the existing anomalies. The DDG (P) explained

about the demand of the Postal Accounts to

decentralise and taking in-charge of the Accounts

branch.

The DDG (P) finally told that he is very clear in

the demand of the staff side and in open mind, find out

ways & means to sort out the issue at the earliest.

All Circle Secretaries are requested to send their

opinions, suggestions too and equipping the CHQ for

further discussions in this issue.

Discussions with DDG (Establishment)

FSC - Agreed and will accord orders early revising

the rates of Fixed Stationary Charge.

Recovery for over payment - The recovery to

Accounts branch officials for drawal of over payment

to Postmen while fixation of pay after the 5th CPC --

This will be considered after having detailed study of

the court cases - (We placed this as one of the item

in the Departmental Council).

Special Pay to Accountant - A reminder will be sent

to DoP&T & MoF for orders to treat the Special

Allowance as Special Pay for fixation of pay on

promotion to PO and RMS Accountants.

Norms for RD- The suggestions putforth by the CHQ

is pursued and correction memo will be issued shortly.

Systems Administrators - A scheme to grant

incentive to the System Managers is under

consideration.

first week of August 2007 at Allahabad. The General

Secretary, Com. K.V. Sridharan is in the job of

are very much essential to the Branch / Divisional

Secretaries and decided to release the book of

Committee. If the Branch / Divisional Secretaries

inform the number of copies required in advance, it

will be purposeful.

General Secretary Desk - 07th June 2007Confederation Meeting: The National Executive

Committee Meeting of the Confederation of Central

Government Employees has been held at New Delhi

on 05-06-2007 under the Presidentship of Com. S.K.

Vyas. After long discussions, it was decided to

observe one day Token Strike during the first / second

week of August 2006 demanding settlement on the

following issues.

(i) Grant of interim relief with minimum of Rs. 1000/-.

(ii) Date of effect of the 6th CPC should be 01-01-06.

(iii) Formation of Judicial Committee to effect wage

revision in case of Gramin Dak Sevaks in Postal

Dept.

(iv) Ending discrimination in the matter of

compassionate appointments.

(v) Scrap the order of abolition of post, stop

downsizing, privatisation and contractization.

(vi) Withdrawal of the new pension scheme.

(vii) Regularise the casual / contingent/daily rated

workers.

(viii) No replacements of CGHS by Medicare

insurance.

(ix) Remove the quantum ceiling on Bonus of Rs.

2500/- and effect payment on the basis of actual

pay drawn.

(x) Implementation of pending arbitration awards.

It was also decided to approach other

Organisations and Federations for a united movement

and the date of one-day token strike will be announced

after exhorting efforts with other Federations / Unions

but before the end of this month.

It is also resolved to observe 28-06-2007 as

'STRUGGLE COMMENCEMENT DAY' by holding

demonstrations at all work spots.

All the Circle Secretaries are requested to cause

necessary action in their circle for the effective conduct

of 28-06-2007 programme and intimate compliance

reports to CHQ.

The copy of the Confederation Circular is

enclosed herewith. All are requested to popularise the

demand by issuing circular in regional language.

Observe 4th Death Anniversary of Com. K.

Adinarayana: The NFPE has directed all the

branches to observe the 4th Death Anniversary of Com.

K. Adinarayana on 17th June 2007 as "UNITY DAY".

His contributions to the working class be remembered

on the day and let us salute and pay tribute to our

beloved leader. All are requested to observe the day

as "Unity Day" to strengthen our movement further to

restrict the attacks.

Filling up of Residual Vacancies: The Directorate

vide its order No. 60-5/2007-SPB.I dated 15-05-2007

directed to fill up all the vacant posts under residual

categories in Postman / Postal Assistants etc. as per

Recruitment Rules and also directed to send proposals

if any required for revival of the posts.

However, I feel that the gravity of the issue is not

properly known and rigorous monitoring at Circle level

is lacking. The unfilled posts earmarked for LGOs in

PA cadre since 2000-01 to till date should be filled up

immediately as per the latest orders. In many circles,

they have simply abolished such posts as those posts

were kept vacant for more than one year. Since the

exam was held and also the process of filling up the

posts had been started, such posts should not be

brought under axing. Hence the Directorate sought

proposals for such posts for revival in case of earlier

abolition. If those posts were not abolished but simply

kept in skeleton, such posts should be filled up

immediately as per the Recruitment Rules. (i.e. If no

GDS is eligible, the posts may be filled up by open

market methods.)

All Circle Secretaries are requested to verify the

position of residual vacancies and cause appropriate

action to fill up them immediately as per the orders

cited in para supra. A report on this may please be

sent to CHQ.

GDS Working Committee Meeting: The Central

Working Committee meeting of the AIPEDE Union has

been held at Aggarwal Dharmshala, Model Town, New

Delhi on 03-06-2007 & 04-06-2007. Com. K.V.

Sridharan, General Secretary inaugurated the open

session. In his speech, he detailed the exact position

on recognition and the need for the unity to counter

the onslaughts on GDS and also to take serious efforts

for the affiliation with NFPE in future. Com. C.C. Pillai,

Secretary General, NFPE explained the position in

detail and asserted that the NFPE has not expelled

the GDS Union as alleged and the need to fight unitedly

LEFT WANTS NEW PENSIONSCHEME PUT ON HOLD

Expressing surprise and strong disapproval

over the decision of the interim Pension Fund

Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) to

operationalise the pension scheme, leaders of the

Left parties have asked Prime Minister Manmohan

Singh to put it on hold.

Reacting to the PFRDA's invitation for

Expressions of Interest for sponsoring a Pension

Fund under the New Pension Scheme, they said

the Left parties had been opposed to the PFRDA

Bill.

The leaders said that many rounds of

discussions on the matter were held at the UPA

Government-Left Coordination Committee meetings.

The Bill had not been taken up for adoption pending

consensus on this. "It is, therefore, surprising that

the PFRDA has proceeded to operationalise the

pension scheme. In the name of an interim step,

some of the objectionable features of the Bill are

going to be put in place. We wish to register our

strong disapproval of this move," the leaders said in

a joint letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

The letter dated May 18, was released on Sunday.

No.11-5/2007-BGT/955-78 Dated : 06-06-2007

l Regarding Additional Allotment under

major Head 7610-24 Loans to Government

Servants (Computer Advance) for the year

2007-08

This is regarding the requirement of

additional funds under Major Head 7610-204

Computer Advance. Consequent of

liberalization in norms for granting computer

Advances Department of Posts has reveiced

more than 1000 applications from the officers/

officials in various cadres. Funds of Rs. 25

Lakhs only under Computer Advance was

granted by Ministry of Finance to Department

of Posts for the year 2007-08 (BE) which is quite

meager.

As the present allotment can cater to

Approximately 80 applicants out of more than

1000 applicants. I request that an additional

allotment of Rs. 3000 Lakh may please be made

to Department of Posts for the current financial

year.

This has been issued with the approval of

GOVT. ORDER


Pension Funds : 26% Allowed for Foreign C.O.New Delhi: Foreign companies may manage pension

funds of Central and state government employees

now. The foreign funds would be allowed to own up

to 26 percent stake in entities that will be set up by

state-owned banks, mutual funds and financial

institutions to manage the pension funds.

The Govt. has allowed for FDI in the entities that will

be floated by public sector institutions for the purpose.

The Pension Regulatory & Development Authority

(PFRDA), which has already appointed National

Securities Depository Ltd. (NSDL) as the central

record keeping agency, has invited preliminary bids

to appoint pension fund managers.

Only financial institutions and banks in which Govt.

has at least 51% share and manage assets worth

Rs.10,000 crore, can apply.

The sources said the public sector financial

institutions will, however, have to float separate

companies for pension fund business.

These companies, which can have up to 26 per cent

FDI stake, would need to have paid up capital of at

least Rs. 10 crore.

Verification of Membershipof Central Trade Unions

The Chief Labour Commissioner (Central) has

issued provisional results of verification of membership

of trade unions affiliated to various Central Trade Union

organisations as on 31-12-2002. It has asked the CTUs

to bring to its notice if there is any error / omission

within one month for rectification. This will be placed

before the standing committee on General Verifications

which is to meet on 4th July 2007.

It may so happen thatadequate numbers of LGOs may not pass the

examination and also that sufficient number ofeligible GDS may not become available. It is to benoted that as per the Recruitment Rules, if thevacancies remain unfilled by the GDS, such residualvacancies of PA / SA cadre (in Departmental Quotaonly) are required to be filled up by subsequent DirectRecruitment from open market candidates in thenext / subsequent year.

CITIZEN'S CHARTER OF DEPT. OF POSTS

l Revision/updating of the Citizens' Charter ofthe Department of Posts.

As you may be aware, the Government of India,

Department of Administrative Reforms and Public

Grievance has launched a major initiative viz

"Sevottam" for achieving excellence in public service

by the public service provider. India Post takes pride

as one of the 10 leading Departments which has taken

the initiative for implementation of "Sevottam".

2. One of the requirements for implementation of

"Sevottam" is to put in place the Citizens' Charter

defining the minimum service norms for public service

delivery. Accordingly, a detailed draft Citizens' Charter

has been prepared and it is proposed to finalize the

same in consultation with the various stakeholders.

Since ultimately the implementation of the Citizens'

Charter would depend upon the concerned staff at the

operating level, it is requested that your views/

Dated 30-04-2007)

l Road Map of India Post-Measures for

optimum utilization of manpower

I am directed to say that due to various

factors emerging in communication system it is

felt that new norms should be formulated for postal

traffic. In this connection you are requested to

furnish your comments on the fo l lowing

suggestions:

(a) Every circle should have only one PSD and

one CSD unless the traff ic and distance

requirements are required otherwise.

(b) Every district should have only HPO prescribed

by Gzetted Postmaster with the exception of

Sub standard office which do not justify further

continuation.

(c) Every district should have one postal division

for which traffic and population requirements

necessitate otherwise a second division can

be considered but more than two divisions are

not justifiable under any circumstances.

(d) In order to avoid problemsin fi l l ing up of

manpower needs in HSG.I and HSG.II, the

grade can be merged after the Sixth Pay

Comission has considered this aspect, the

HSG grades can be merged so that there is

simplification of grades because the last Pay

Comission and the earlier Pay Comission

rovided overlapping pay scales with little or no

benefit to the staff.

2. Your comments may be sent to this office at

the earliest.

3. This issues with the approval of DDG (Estt.)

Filling up of residual vacancies

(D.G. (P). Lr. No. 60-5/2007-SPB-I

dated 15-05-2007)

l I am directed to invite your attention on the

Recruitment Rules of Postmen. The Recruitment

Rules prescribe that 50% of vacancies will be filled by

promotion from Group 'D' failing which by Gramin Dak

Sevaks on the basis of merit. Of the remaining 50%

of vacancies, 25% will be filled by Gramin Dak Sevaks

with minimum 15 years of service on the basis of

seniority and 25% from the Gramin Dak Sevaks on

the basis of merit in the examination. In case the

vacancies still remain unfilled, then it will be filled

up by Gramin Dak Sevaks of the neighbouring

Divisions or by Gramin Dak Sevaks in the Region.

Only thereafter, the residual vacancies will be filled

up by direct recruitment through the nominees of

the Employment Exchange. It is possible that

adequate number of Gramin Dak Sevaks may not

have become successful for appointment as

Postman and perhaps certain residual vacancies

exist in Circles.

2. Similarly, the Recruitment Rules of Postal

Assistant / Sorting Assistant provide that 50% of

the vacancies are to be filled by direct recruitment

and the remaining 50% vacancies are required to

be filled up by departmental examination held for

LGOs failing which the unfilled vacancies are offered

to the Gramin Dak Sevaks subject to their fulfilling

the prescribed age and education qualification. It

is possible that adequate numbers of LGOs may

not pass the examination and also that eligible

Gramin Dak Sevaks may not become available. It

may please be noted that as laid down in the existing

Recruitment Rules if the vacancies remain unfilled

by Gramin Dak Sevaks, such residual vacancies of

Postal Assistants / Sorting Assistants are required

to be filled up by subsequent direct recruitment of

open market candidates.

3. It may please be noted that the optimisation of

direct recruitment to civil posts, ordered vide

Department of Personnel & Training's O.M. dated

16th May 2001 is appl icable to only direct

recruitment vacancies. The unfilled 'Promotion

quota' vacancies i.e. the residual vacancies will not

come under the purview of the Screening Committee

or the Annual Direct Recruitment Plans even if these

are eventually required to be filled up by direct

recruitment. Thus, such residual vacancies arising

in the cadres of Postmen / Postal Assistants /

Sorting Assistants after making all attempts to fill

up by various modes of recruitment provided in the

Recruitment Rules if are still lying unfilled should

be filled up through Employment exchange as in

the case of Postmen or by direct recruitment of other

open market candidates as in the case of Postal

Assistants / Sorting Assistants in accordance with

the Recruitment Rules.

4. It is requested that the Circles may accordingly

take action to identify the residual vacancies and fill


up such posts as per the provisions contained in the

Recruitment Rules. However, filling up such unfilled

'promotion quota' vacancies by direct recruitment

should be done in accordance with general instructions

regarding filling up of vacant posts as issued from time

to time. If the posts are to be revived, such cases

should be referred to the Establishment Division of

the Directorate.

2006 in Dak Bhawan, New Delhi, it was brought to

the notice of Secretary (Posts) that the services of

guidance and appropriate action.

Copy of D.G. (P) Cir. Lr. No. 137-4/2006-SPB-II

Dated 22-05-2007

l It may please be recalled that as per this

Directorate's letter No. 137-4/2006-SPB.II dated

30th May 2006, it was informed that like the HSG-

I and HSG-II cadres the LSG cadre will also be a

Circle Cadre and the posts in the said Grade should

be f i l led up by promotion as per the revised

Recruitment Rules notified on 18-05-2006.

2. In order to make promotions to LsG it was

decided during the meeting, held by Dy. Director

General (Personnel) with the Astt. Postmasters

General / Asstt. Directors (Staff) on 4th May 2007,

that all the Circles will prepare and circulate the

draft Gradation List of Postal Assistants / Sorting

Assistants by the end of May 2007.

3. In this context it may be noted that prior to 30-05-

2006, the LSG was a Divisional cadre and the posts

in the said grade were required to be filled up

accordingly.

4. It may be recalled that vide this Directorate's

letter No. 4-16/2002-SPB-II dated 12-11-2002 all

the Circles were advised that norm based LSG /

HSG-II posts should be filled up notionally in terms

of the relevant Recruitment Rules from the year

when the norm based promotions had not been

carried out so that promotions to upgraded posts

in HSG-I could be made from amongst the eligible

HSG-II officials. Accordingly, all the Circles were

required to ensure that DPCs are convened to fill

up the posts notionally so as to update the filling

up of the norm-based posts.

5. It is essential to emphasize here that the

not ional promot ion to norm-based posts as

advised vide letter dated 12-11-2002 was not

supposed to be one-time exercise but was to

be carried out notionally from year to year with

effect from the year the promotions had not

been carried out. Therefore, a critical review

may be carr ied out to ensure that not ional

p r o m o t i o n s h a d b e e n c a r r i e d o u t a t t h e

Divisional level in the LSG cadre up to the year

2002 and vacanc ies wh ich arose a f te r the

no t i f i ca t i on o f r ev i sed Rec ru i tmen t Ru les

notified on 07-02-2002 till 17-05-2006 have been

filled up in terms of the provisions of the said

revised Recruitment Rules. After latest revision

of Recruitment Rules, notified on 18-05-2006,

the vacancies in LSG are required to be filled

by promotion as Circle cadre as intimate vide

letter dated 30-05-2006 on the basis of the

gradation lists being prepared by the Circles.

6. All the Circles are once again requested to

ensure that the notional promotions have been given

to the eligible officials to the LSG cadre so that

only those officials figure in the Gradation List of

PA / SA at Circle level who could not be given

notional promotions / promotions by following the

above-stated exercise for want of norm-based

vacancies.

Marx and 1857With the 150th anniversary of the 1857 uprising

being celebrated in the country, it might be worth

recalling what Karl Marx had to say on what he called

the 'First Indian War of Independence'. It is another

matter that historians in India, for good reasons, will

not agree with his contention that the uprising of 1857

fired the first salvo of rebellion against the British

rule in India; there had been such as the Vellore

uprising in 1806.

Marx and Engels since the early 1850s wrote

a number of incisive articles for the left-wing American

newspaper, New York Daily Tribune, on the 1857-59

national revolt in India. Founded by Horce Greeley, a

prominent American Journalist and politician, it was

themouthpiece of the left-wing of American whigs

until the mid-1850s. Besides Marx in his Notes on

Indian History wrote in 1853 on the situation in India

at that time.

Marx and Engels had evinced a keen interest

in developments taking place in India and Asian

countries, particularly China, and were sanguine that

some sort of revolution would occur in india. In fact,

since the early 1850s the two and Marx separately,

wrote a number of articles on the ferment taking place

in India, both during the Sepoy Mutiny and prior to it.

Marx perceived that the events in India and

China would snowball into dissolution of patriarchal

and feudal relations and the gradual transition of these

countries to capitalist development. This change was

expected to influence the prospects of the impending

European revolution. Although the English called it

a mutiny and an isolated uprising, Marx described

the churning of that time as an insurrection, which

was just part of a general anti-colonial liberation

struggle of oppressed nations unfolding in the 1850s

in nearly all of Asia.

He refuted the contention of the British ruling

classes, who tried to described the insurrection as

an armed sepoy mutiny and conceal the involvement

of broad sections of the Indian population. Marx and

Engels sought to link the outbreak to the European

relvolution which, in their opinion, was due to break

out as a sequel to the first world economic crisis

which swept Europe and the United States at that

time.

In his article, Revolt in the Indian Army, which

he wrote on June 30, 1857, and published in the

New York Daily Tribune as the leading article on July

15, 1857, Marx analysed the conquest and

subjugation of India and noted the variety of forms

and methods of British colonial rule and exploitation.

He described the East India Company as the tool of

Indian conquest and stressed that the British seized

Indian territories by taking advantage of the feudal

strife between local princes and fanning racial,

religious, tribal and caste antagonisms among the

people.

Marx demonstrated that the lolonial plunder

of India - one of the principal sources of enrichment

for the ruling oligarchy in Britain - caused the collapse

of entire branches of the Indian economy and

improverishment of the people of the vast, wealthy

and ancient country. The British, he noted, neglected

public works and thus brought about the collapse of

India's irrigated agriculture, which in turn doomed

millions of Indians to starvation by breaking up local

industries, notably hand-weaving and hand-spinning-

these could not compete with British cotton fabrics

flooding the Indian market.

The colonialists broke down the patriarchal

frameworks of communal landownership. However,

by introducing successively two land-tax and tenure

systems, zamindari and ryotwari, they preserved

many feudal elements in the Indian social system,

which slowed down the country's progressive

development and burdened the Indian peasantry.

Marx drew the conclusion that it was the

predatory policy of British intruders and colonial

exploitation which nurtured the Indian revolt. In creating

the native army, the British simultaneously organised

the first general centre of resistance which the Indian

people were never possessed of, Marx opined.

Social Structure of U.P.U. Countries - A Comparative Study-- by Pranab Bhattacharya

offices, Russian Federation has more than 40,000

post offices, USA serves it's people through 37,159

post offices.

So far as the number of mobile post offices

are concerned, USA has 62,762 mobile post offices

and Ukrain has 31,010 mobile post offices and even

a small country like Czech Republic with a little more

than 1 crore population.

India's Geographical location, ecological

systems and vast area including 5,93,643 villages

demand that India should have more and more

permanent and mobile post offices whereas India has

in true sense only 30,368 permanent post offices.

Comparison of Indian Postal Service with the

most prestigious G-8 countries.

Germany and Japan have no temporary and

part-time workers. Canada has only 14.5 percent part

time postal workers. Italy has only 2.4 per cent part

time postal workers, USA has only 12.4 per cent

temporary postal workers, such percentage in case

of U.K. is 17.75 and France has 17.9 per cent

temporary work force whereas India has 54.35 per

cent temporary work force serving the vast postal net

work of 1,55,516 post offices through out the country.

If we compare Indian Postal Service with

Germany in the light of population, then India should

have 49,37,764 permanent postal workers and

4,16,247 post offices Comparison with U.K. means

India should have 27,06,560 permanent, 5,83,992

temporary postal workers and 2,62,998 permanent

post offices. If USA is taken into account, India should

have 28,29,940 permanent, 400444 temporary postal

workers and 3,99,684 post offices. If France is in the

comparison, India should have 41,40,828 permanent

9,05,058 part time/temporary postal workers and

3,05,046 post offices. In the light of Japan, India post

should 9,13,264 permanent postal workers and

1,97,488 post offices. Considering Italy, India post

should have 26,99,726 permanent and 69,787 part

time postal workers and 2,64,461 post offices

,whereas India has only 2,46,678 permanent staff,

who run 30,368 Departmental Post offices and

2,93,656 part time staff, (GDS), serve 1,25,148 branch

Out of 192 countries under U.P.U., 112

countries of the world are having less than one crore

population - that is each of those countries are even

smaller than our State Jammu & Kashmir, 26

countries are even smaller than our 'Chhattisgarh'.

Each of the other set of 15 countries are even smaller

than State of Kerala (population - 3,18,41,374). Each

of another set of 15 countries are even smaller than

our Gujarat. 12 countries, each of them is having

population varying between 5 crore plus to less than

10 crore.

Only 4 countries of the Universal Postal Union

are having more than 20 crore of population - China

tops the list (131 crore). India follows China (110

crore). Next USA - 30 crore, difference between India

(2nd) and USA, (3rd) is whopping figure of more than

80 crore.

People of 122 UPU countries each of them

speak in 1,2 or maximum 3 language. Whereas

Chinese people speak in 8 major and other minority

languages and Indian people speak in 20 major

languages and 1600 dialects.

So far as the literacy is concerned, 93 U.P.U.

countries are having 90 to 100 per cent literacy. In

literacy rate India is trailing behind even the countries

like Uganda, Papua, New Guinea, Nicaragua, Ghana,

Nigeria, Madagascar etc.

Postal Structure - A comparative study of

U.P.U. Countries.

Out of 192 UPU countries there are 132 UPU

countries each of which are having less than even

1000 permanent post offices. 36 UPU countries are

having permanent post offices varying between 1000

to below 4000 post offices. Only 16 UPU countries

are having more than 10,000 permanent post offices.

So far as the number of permanent post offices

are concerned, China has nearly 67,000 permanent

post offices, France serves through nearly 17,000

post offices, Germany has more than 13,000 post

offices, U.K. has nearly 15,000 post offices (14609).

Italy has nearly 14,000 post offices, Indonesia serves

its people through 19,632 post offices, Poland has

almost 11,000 post offices, Japan has 24,678 post


post offices (Temporary Post Offices).

As regards postal network in Europe and CIS Region,

one post office serves 4310 inhabitants. In

industrialized countries one post offices serves 4990

inhabitants, whereas on an average, one Indian post

office serves a population of 6,615.

Thus, this comparative survey proves that even

in these days of globalization Indian Postal system

is very -very weak and has wide scope for extension.

Weight slabs in other developed and

developing countries

The following countries have complete

monopoly of letter mails. The mail sector of those

countries have complete monopoly.

(1) USA, (2) France, (3) China, (4) Brazil,

(5) HongKong, (6) Malaysia (7) Thailand, (8)

Bangladesh, (9) Pakistan, (10) Sri Lank.

U.S. Postal Service has monopoly on

letters up to 31.8 Kg.

Even very small countries like Australia,

Canada, Czech Republic, Netherlands, Switzer lands

etc. are having complete monopoly of letter mails up

to 2000 grams. Most of the advances countries are

having weight restriction in various forms whereas the

Indian Postal Service has been shattered by the illegal

presence of 2500 national and international private

courier services for the last two decades.

India'geographical characteristics.

India is world's seventh largest country

in the world. India has 28 states and 2 Union

Territories. India has, according to latest census

2,86,120 towns with urban population of 72.18

percent.

India's socio-economic structure

India has some 20 major languages often with

different scripts and over 1600 dialects (500 major

dialects) in which Indian people speak, is a proof of

its amazing diversity. Literacy rate is only 64.84 per

cent. 48% of population of India is living below the

poverty line. Almost half of our children- "The

immediate next generation of India" has been suffering

from under nourishment and in India the number of

such children is highest in the world. Number of abject

poverty stricken people in India is more than 50 crore.

When unemployment is the most serious problem

and number of unemployed youths is more than 20

crore, the average enrolment of students in 342

universities and 17000 colleges is 99.54 lakh means

almost 1 crore per year, Govt. of India inspite of ample

scope for creating more and more posts, abolished

63,616 posts during the last five years in the

Department of Posts only.

Under this painful socio-economic scenario of

postal services cannot be the solution. Privatization

of water supply has resulted in hike in price of water,

which many urban people have failed to afford. What

is the experience of privatization of power in Delhi

State? Who can forget the ENRON episode in

Maharastra? Privatization is not working for many of

our people and for the stability of our economy.

Save the centuries old prestigious

postal service.

The proposed Indian Post Office (Amendment)

Bill, 2006, if passed, will only legalise the decades

old 2500 inland and foreign services which are being

run by ex-top brass of the Department of Post and

thus shatter the centuries old postal services.

Unfortunately, some of those ex-top bureaucrats of

the Department of Posts are drawing fatty pension

from the exchequer of Department of Posts.

The most dangerous step to dismantle the

strong postal service was launched 21 years back

by late. C.M. Stephen, Ex. Communication Minister

in 1985 by abolishing hundreds of running RMS/

Sorting Section and stopping sorting of letters in

running trains and causing unusual delay in delivery

of mails.

NDA Govt. further abolished 63,616 live post

in the department and now the postal staff strength

has been reduced from 6,03,950 to 5,40,334. The

last mail in the coffin is now being erected by this

UPA Govt. through the amendment of the Indian Post

Office Act in spite of Standing Committee's

observation, "the Central Govt. should retain exclusive

privilege in republic Interest" and draft bill states that

the DOP will have the exclusive privllage of collecting

and delivering letters below 300 grams only.

Different industrialist, merchant houses and CII

are even pleading against this weight restriction on

the plea that this could result in loss of business as

well as loss of employment, but stark reality is that

courier companies are exploiting their workers with

very poor wages and even violating the Labour Laws.

CONFEDERATION OF CENTRAL GOVERNMENTEMPLOYEES AND WORKERS

Manishinath Bhawan, A.2/95 Rajouri Garden, New Delhi. 110 027

Phone: (011) 2510 5324 Fax No (011) 25105324, Mobile:98110 48303

No. D/11/06/2007 Dated 7.06.2006

Dear Comrade,

The National Executive of the Confederation

met at New Delhi on 05.06.2007 at Manishinath

Bhawan. The decision taken on various agenda

items slated for discussions are as under:-

Agenda item No. 1 & 2

Review of decisions taken at the last meeting of the

National Executive held on 06.02.2007.

(a) Observance of demands day on 14.03.2007 and

20.03.2007.

It was noticed that quite a number of affiliates

had not submitted the sectional charter of

demands. They are requested to submit the

same to the respective HOD and endorse copy

thereof to Confederation without any further delay.

(b) Solidarity action in supporting the struggle of GSI/

IBM employees

The programme had been carried out

successfully by all COCs.

(c) Action against PFRDA Bill

The Raj Bhawan march had been organized by most

of the COCs. At Delhi a massive dharna was held

under the joint banner of Confederation/AISGEF.

It was stated by the Secretary General that reporting

for CoCs and affiliates of the manner in which the

programmes are carried out, which had registered a

discernible improvement at the end of 2006, has

again been slipped back. There had been very few

written reports from the affiliates and the CoCs of

the programmes carried out in March, 2007. The

meeting decided to appeal the State CoCs and

affiliates to provide the CHQ with a report of the extent

of participation in the programmes of action.

Agenda item No. 3

Reporting of discussions the staff side had

with the 6th CPC;

Com. Secretary General stated that on 20th April,

2007 itself the Confederation had circulated a brief

resume of the discussion, the staff side had with

the CPC. That was a factual presentation of the

events as it took place from 16th to 18th April, 2007.

The Confederation had not made any comments on

those events, as it was thought that the fact as it is

should reach the members.

Thereafter, Com. S.K. Vyas, President

presented to the house, the impressions gained by

the representatives of the Confederation i.e. he

himself and the Secretary General who were

members of the staff side delegation. He said that in

spite of the positive response of the Commission to

the formulation on Minimum Wage allowances,

Pension etc, the same should not be taken on the

face value or should it be considered as an indication

of things to materialize. H added that it should only

be taken as a free expression and exchange of ideas

and must be construed as a cover up to circumvent

the others in untenable position taken by the

Commission on the question of Interim Relief. The

setting up the three study groups with an elaborate

terms of reference on vital questions affecting the

service conditions of the Central govt. employees is

indicative of the direction with which the CPC would

look at matters. The reluctance of the Govt. to set

up the CPC was reflective of its eagerness to

suppress the wages of the Central Govt. employees

and on that pretext of the PSU workers too. He also

stated that the representatives of the Confederation

prior to the discussion with the CPC and thereafter

too tried to have a JCA meeting of all constituents of

the JCM to review and take necessary decision to

bring up a common resistance movement., which

could not unfortunately fructify.

Com. Secretary General, said that having failed

to enlist the co-operation of all concerned for a

common movement to realize the demand of I.R,

the Confederation ought to have met earlier than 5th

June, 2007, but could not do so in view of the

impending struggle of Postal workers, which was to

commence from 24th April, 2007 onwards.

In so far as the allegation leveled by the AP CoC in

their written communication placed at the N.E

meeting. Com Vyas refuted it by stating that the

staff side had neither diluted the demand for I.R nor

had its submission been hollow. According to him


the case of the CGEs, as is articulated in the

memorandum had been admirably presented by the

staff side and had substantiated every of its contention

with facts, figures, precedence and comparison. He

said that the AP State committee's observation in

the matter was unfortunate and inexplicable in the

absence of any details as to what further should have

been presented. In the light of the decision taken at

the last meeting he opined that the NE should discuss

as to the course of action, the Confederation to pursue

in realization of the charter of demands.

Agenda item No.4 & 5

Com. Secretary General informed the house

that a meeting of the CoC Secretaries was convened

on 10.04.2007 at Nagpur and for the eastern zone at

Kolkata on 25.05.2007. Very few Secretaries

participated in the meeting. The formation of the State

CoCs in all states other than the following was stated

to be progressing well:

a) Western U.P

b) Punjub, Haryana & J & K

c) Bihar d) Orissa

The following N.E members were requested

to interact with the respective comrades in setting up

the State CoCs

Bihar - Com C.C Pillai

Western UP - Com. K.K.N. Kutty and

Com Deshraj Sharma

Punjub, Haryana & J & K - Com. S.K. Vyas and

Com. K. V. Shreedharan

Orissa - Com. M.S. Raja

(b) Meeting of the Central executives of Kolkata based

unions/association

A meeting of the Kolkata based affiliates was

convened on 25.05.2007. Out of 18 affiliates 16

participated. Various issues were discussed. It was

decided that Com. Gautam Pramanik, Organising

Secretary of the confederation would make periodical

interaction with these organisations. It was decided

that Com. Gautam Pramanik will arrange similar

meetings prior to and after every N.E. meeting to have

proper interaction.

Agenda item No. 7

a) Amendment to the Charter of Demand :

The meeting decided to add the following two

issues and make it a 10 point charter of demands.

Points No. 9 : Implement all arbitration awards

immediately.

Point No. 10 : Remove the quantum ceiling of Rs.2500/

- and pay

bonus on the basis of actual pay drawn.

b) Future course of action

The house decided that the 10 point of

demands should be pursued through struggles and

the first phase of action should culminate in a days

strike in the first week of August, 2007. The Secretary

General will write to all organizations to explore the

possibilities of organizing a joint action of one day

strike in the first week of August, 2007. The date will

be fixed after such consultation and mutual agreement.

The resolution adopted by the house in this regard is

enclosed. The CHQ will intimate the date of strike

after such consultations. All affiliates must send a

list of sectional demands which they would like to

include in the charter of demands, while submitting

the Strike Notice.

The house also decided to observe 28th June,

2007 a "STRUGGLE COMMENCEMENT DAY" by

organizing lunch recess demonstration/dharna etc.

to explain the demands to the mass of the employees.

At Delhi efforts will be taken by the state CoC in

association with Central Secretariat Non-Gazetted

employees Association so as to hold a day long

dharna before the North Block where the Ministry of

Finance is located.

Agenda item No.6

Com. C.C. Pillai explained the various aspects

of the negotiations, the Postal Federations had

between them and the Postal Department in

settlement of the charter of demands and the decision

to suspend the indefinite Strike programme .

Agenda item No 8:

Any other matter with the permission of chair:

1. The house discussed at length the various

problems faced by the affiliates in getting recognition

from the Govt. under CCS(RSA) Rules. It was decided

that the CHQ on going through the letters received by

it will prepare a comprehensive Note for submission

to the DOPT. The affiliates may send in their

communications, if not already done, in this regard

by 15.06.2007.

2. Com. M.S. Raja will collect the requisite

information of autonomous organizations as was

decided in the last meeting.

3. The CoCs expedite formation of daily rated/

Casual Workers as per last N.E. decisions.

With greetings,

Yours fraternally,

(K.K.N. Kutty)

Secretary General


This meting of the national Executive of the

Confederation held on 05.06.2007 in New Delhi take a

serious note of the fact that no action has been taken

by the Govt. despite notice given by the Confederation

to the Cabinet Secretary on 20.04.2007 to settle the

following demands :-

1. Grant of Interim Relief of Rs.1000/-

The Central Government employees were

entitled to have the wage revision as on 01-01-2006.

As per the 5th CPC recommendations, the

Government ought to have set up the 6th CPC in April,

2003 itself. The notification setting up the Commission

was issued in October, 2006 and even according to

the terms of references; the Commission is expected

to take 18 months to formulate its views. Therefore,

the report of the Commission is not expected before

31-03-2008. If one is to go with the past experience,

the submission of the report is bound to be delayed

further.

The Government had granted Interim Relief prior

to the setting up of the 4th and 5th CPC. Because

there had been an unavoidable delay in the submission

of the report, both the 4th and 5th CPC granted second

and third interim relief.

The demand of the employees to grant Interim

Relief was not conceded by the Government while

setting up the 6th CPC and no reason whatsoever

was advanced for such denial.

During the discussions, with the Finance

Secretary before the notification was issued, the staff

side was categorically assured that the Pay

Commission would be specifically asked to submit a

report within a specified time frame on Interim Relief.

However, the notification has only asked the

Commission to look into the feasibility and desirability

of an Interim Relief. The 6th CPC has categorically

conveyed that they had no intention of suggesting any

I.R to the Central Govt. employees on the specious

plea that such infusion of money would further stoke

the inflation. In the circumstance, the Govt. should

come forward to grant Interim Relief @ 15 % of the

emoluments, subject to a minimum of Rs.1000/-

2. Date of effect of the 6th CPC to be

01-01-2006

The 5th CPC made a specific recommendation

to the effect that the periodicity of wage revision in the

case of Civil servants should be decennial. This

suggestion was made as an alternative; to the setting

up of a permanent wage review Committee. In the case

of Public Sector Undertakings, the wage agreement

indicates the date of next wage revision. Therefore, as

and when the wage revision takes place, the same is

made effective retrospectively. In the case of civil

servants, the date of effect of the revised wages is

arbitrarily decided by the Commission. We expected

the Government to mandate the Commission with the

stipulation that the date of effect must be 01-01-2006.

By asking them to suggest the effective date of their

recommendations, the Government has sought to

unsettle a settled issue. The Government should

announce that the date of effect of wage revision would

be 01-01-2006.

3. Judicial committee to effect Wage revision

in the case of Grameen Dak Sewaks:

The Grameen Dak Sewaks are part time

employees engaged by the Postal Department. Most

of them are engaged for full time work and are exploited.

They do not get full salary and allowances and are

also denied pension on par with the regular employees

in the Postal Department.. The Supreme Court has

declared them to be holders of Civil post for the purpose

of Article 311 of the Constitution. In December, 1993

the Postal Department through a written agreement

categorically assured the employees that the

Committee to go into the issue of wage revision of

GDS would not be headed by a serving or retired Postal

Officer. Accordingly, they set up a judicial Committee

under the Chairmanship of Justice Charanjit Singh

Talwar. Our plea before the Government was to include

the Grameen Dak Sevaks within the ambit of the 6th

CPC. This was however, not agreed to. An

understanding was reached that the Government

would set up a judicial committee to consider the issue

pertaining to Grameen Dak Sevaks immediately after

the setting up of the 6th CPC. It is now more than

months and the Government has not honored its

commitment. The Postal Department going back on

their assurance made in 1993 has decided to constitute

Resolution adopted at the National Executive Committee Meeting of theConfederation of Central Govt. Employees and Workers on 05.06.2007


a committee under the chairmanship of a retired Postal

Officer.

In the recent negotiations, the Postal

Federations had in the wake of an indefinite strike

action, the Postal department has agreed to take orders

from the Govt. to refer the wage revision of Gramin

Dak Sewaks to the 6th CPC in effect conceding the

demand raised by the ab-initio. However, no order has

been issued so far. The Govt. must take immediate

steps to honour the agreement.

4. Ending discrimination in the matter of

compassionate appointments.

At the discussions, the Staff side

representatives had with the Govt. in January 2003 to

explore the possibilities of bringing about a negotiated

settlement on the 20 point charter of demand, the

Cabinet Secretary indicated that the discrimination in

the matter of compassionate appointment between the

Railway workers and the other civilian employees of

the Government of India, being unjust would be

removed. Thereafter, on quite a number of occasions,

the issue had been discussed with the Secretary

(Personnel) and at the instance of the Cabinet

Secretary with the then Finance Secretary, prior to

the National Council meeting held in October, 2006.

The Department of Personnel has not so far taken

any steps to mitigate the problem and end the unjust

discrimination. There are thousands of poor applicants

waiting for appointment who are in a highly distressed

circumstance. The 5% ceiling instituted by the

Department of personnel since 1998 has no legal basis

and inoperable administratively. The Department of

Personnel should withdraw the instructions issued by

them instituting a 5% cap on compassionate

appointments and advise the administrative

departments to appoint the deserving candidates

immediately.

5. (a) Scrap the order of abolition of post, stop

downsizing, privatization and contractization.

In may 2001, the Government issued

instructions withdrawing the authority from the

concerned Heads of Department to fill up the vacant

posts through recruitment and assigning the same to

a Screening Committee. As per the stipulation the

said screening committee is entitled to authorize filling

up only 1/3rd of the direct recruit vacancies ( subject

to a maximum of 1 % of the sanctioned posts), the

rest 2/3rdbeing abolished permanently. The intention

of the order was to reduce the existing manpower

drastically. No post was allowed to be created even

for justified functional requirement. Not only it killed

the job opportunities for thousands of unemployed

youth in the country, but also in the process crippled

the functioning of the Departments raising the burden

of workload on employees. Even though the said

instruction was prima facie applicable to all cadres,

categories and groups of civil servants, the Group A

Cadres has invariably been excluded by almost all

the Departmental Heads. In other words, the abolition

of posts had only been in Group C and Group D Cadre

only.

Having given a choice, the Heads of

Departments have invariably abolished almost all Gr.

D. Posts. Since the Posts are abolished, neither the

employees who are in temporary status could be

regularized, nor the application of the family members

of those Gr. D. Employees who died in harness could

be considered for appointment.

It had been repeatedly asserted by the official

side on many occasions that the above cited order is

meant to be effective only for a limited period of 5 years

and the recruitments to fill up the vacancies might

commence from the Recruitment years 2006-07

onwards. It is, therefore, surprising to note that the

Government has decided to extend the operation of

the instruction for another 3 years on the specious

plea that the 6th CPC has been set up. It is

incomprehensive as to why the stipulation for 3 years

had been made while the 6th CPC has been mandated

to submit its report within 18 months.

The Department of Personnel must withdraw

the instructions extending its operation for another 3

years and allow all Departments to fill up the existing

vacancies.

(b) Stop Downsizing, Privatization and Contractorisation

The Government have been implementing the

recommendations of the expenditure Reforms

Commission for quite some time now without

explaining the justification for these recommendations

and without any negotiations with the Employees

organizations. The result is that in some Departments

like Geological Survey of India drastic curtailment of

staff strength is taking place,; in postal Departments

recourse has been made to outsource the postal


functions by franchising the post offices; major

functions in Income tax Department like allotment of

PAN/TAN, challan processing , processing of returns

and all care taker functions are outsourced or

contemplated to be outsourced; almost entire

Department of Development Commissioner of Iron

and Steel had been shut down and employees

declared surplus and re-deployed elsewhere; Text

book printing presses were shut down, in Audit

Department where there are 15000 vacancies

against the total strength of about 50000, a new

method of selective audit is being resorted to in the

name of Audit Planning. The very audit norms has

been diluted. Some of the Audit functions are being

entrusted to Private parties.. In the name of non

core functions entire Gr.D staff is being replaced by

men supplied through Contractors. In all these

exercises it is only the Group C & D staff who are

thrown out. On the other hand there is an increase

in the Group A posts. In some offices in order to

create more Gr. A posts, Group C posts are being

curtailed by way of maching contribution. Almost in

all the Departments and Ministries such exercise

have been implemented or contemplated to be

implemented. The implementation of these

downsizing devices privatization, outsourcing,

contractorization etc. must be stopped.

6. Withdrawal of the new Pension Scheme.

The Pension system for the Government

Employees was evolved as a social security Scheme

decades back. Under this system the employer was

expected to set apart a certain percentage of

employees" wages under a fund. The Government

scrapped this system in respect of employees who

entered service on or after 1-1-2004. There is no law

or rules under which such a step could be taken by

them and as such this was an illegal measure. Under

the new system the Government Employee is required

to contribute 10 % of his pay plus DA and the

Government also contributes the matching amount.

The fund created during the entire tenure of the Service

will be invested in the market through private promoters.

It is a defined contributory pension scheme, for those

who entered service after 1-1-2004 while entire

personnel recruited prior to the cut off date would

continue to be governed by a defined benefit scheme

of Pension under the CCS ( Pension ) Rules. This is a

gross discrimination and illegal measure too.

The Committee set up by the Government to

recommend Pension Reforms had in fact suggested

a hybrid system, where both the defined benefit and

contributory system would co-exist. Since, under the

new scheme, pension is depended on the vagaries

of market, it is not at all acceptable. In any case

there is no justification for recovering a contribution

from the employees who entered service on or after

1-1-2004 as their wage structure is what was

recommended by the 5th Pay Commission on the

premise that the pension was the liability of the

Government. The Govt. is aware that the

Contemplated change in the pension scheme

requires Parliamentary Sanction. That was why

PFRDA Bill was introduced in the Parliament. Thanks

to the principled position taken by the left parties,

the Bill has not yet been passed, whereas the Govt.

has gone ahead with its implementation through

executive fiats: 5% of the accumulated contribution

has already been diverted for stock exchange

operation. Fund managers have been appointed. The

sovereign authority of the Parliament has been

allowed to be eroded. The Govt. must stop these

mechinations and scrap the New Contributory

Pension Scheme and refund the funds collected from

the employees recruited after 01.01.2004

7. Regularize the casual/contingent/daily

rated workers

On the basis of the discussion, the staff side

had in the National Council, the Government introduced

a scheme for regularization of casual/contingent/daily

rated employees as a one time measure, by virtue of

which all those who were in the Rolls as on

September,1993 were absorbed and regularized. The

Department of Personnel issued instructions to all

Departments banning recruitment on casual/contingent

basis. However this instruction was constantly flouted,

mostly due to the ever-increasing workload and

insufficiency of men-in-position. The ban on

recruitment, the instructions to implement austerity

measures and the abolition of posts carried out in the

last 5 years all accentuated the problem. Presently in

the most of the Departments, the number of casual/

contingent/daily rated workers has phenomenally

increased and these employees are not paid the

requisite wages. This is nothing but exploitation taking


advantage of the acute unemployment situation in the

country. The stipulation that if one has been in

continuous employment for more than 206 days in a

year is entitled for regularization has to be adhered to

and abided. The Govt. should immediately issue

instruction for regularization of the daily rated/casual/

contingent paid workers.

8. No replacement of CGHS by Medicare

Insurance

The Government had been contemplating to

replace the existing CGHS with Medicare insurance

plan. With all the deficiencies, CGHS is considered

by both the serving employees and pensioners as the

best Medicare system in the country. In the case of

Pensioners especially, it is a great relief when they

are afflicted with serious illness due to old age. The

Insurance scheme can never be a substitute to the

present Medicare system, even if the premium for such

insurance scheme is borne by the employer. The

Government cannot withdraw itself from its primary

responsibility of providing Medicare to its present and

past employees on the plea of financial stringency.

This apart it is also necessary to consider the security

of livelihood of the persons employed by the CGHS

whose number is sizable. The Government should

abandon the idea of replacing CGHS with Medicare

Insurance and evolve instead methodologies to

strengthen and expand the CGHS.

9. Implementation of the Awards of the Board

of Arbitration

Under the JCM scheme, any issue, which is

not settled through discussions at the National/

Departmental council, is referred to the Board of

Arbitration, specifically set up for the purpose. The

decision of the Arbitrator is bound to be accepted by

both the side i.e. staff side and the Govt. The Govt. is

entitled to approach the Parliament for rejection /

modification on the following two grounds only i.e.

a) the implementation of the award will adversely

affect the national economy

b) it affects the social justice.

The prescribed time limit for getting the Parliamentary

sanction for rejection of an award is six months. While

the request to Parliamentary sanction had been few

and few between in the 1960s, 70s and even in the

earlier part of 80s, the Govt. began to approach the

Parliament as a matter of routine to reject invariably

all awards given in favour of the employees. Neither

the time limit of six months was adhered to nor was it

explained as to how the implementation of these

awards would have affected the National economy or

the Social justice.

Being one of the charter of demands, the

settlement for which the JCA of organizations

participating in the JCM threatened to go on strike

from 01.03.2006, it was decided that the Govt. would

look into the matter afresh and settled the same through

mutual discussions. Accordingly 16 such awards were

identified for further discussion and settlement. The

process of consultation was scheduled to be

completed by end of June, 2006. On none of the

issues, settlement has been brought about so far,

despite the lapse of more than a year. The Govt. is

morally and legally bound to implement these awards.

10. To remove the quantum ceil ing on

Bonus:

Presently a quantum ceiling of Rs.2,500/-

operate on Bonus payment. Whatever is the pay

of an employees he/she is entit led to Bonus

computed on the notional salary limit of Rs.2,500/

-. The said limit was stipulated nearly two decades

back. The abysmally low ceiling limit was not

removed or raised despite demand to that effect

raised on several occasions. This gross injustices

is perpetuated to deny the workers their legitimated

duea. The Govt. should bring in an amendment to

Bonus Act to remove the quantum ceiling and order

payment of Bonus on the basis of one's actual

salary/emoluments.

The meeting taking into account the total

nugatory attitude of the Govt. decided that

the Central Govt. employees have to manifest

their extreme discontent over the indifferent

attitude of the Govt. to settle these demands

by organizing a day long strike sometime in

August, 2007 and also to give serious warning

thereby to the Govt. that incase these demands

are not satisfactori ly sett led within a

reasonable time, they will be compelled to go

on indefinite strike.

When Maharishi Vyas completed the EighteenMahapuranas comprising of one lac chants, the

common man could not follow exactly what he hadintended to tell. Thus, Vyas explained the gist just in

two lines for understanding of the common man :"ASTADASA PURANESU VYASASYA BACHAN

DOYAM, PAROPAKARAYA SORGAYA, NARKAYAPAROPIDANAM". Thus, if we clearly understand the

meaning and importance of these two thing -PAROPAKARAYA SORGAYA and NARKAYA

PARAPIDANAM, we need not have to go through theEighteen Mahapuranas. Similarly, we need not have

to digest the entire SRIMAD BHAGWAT GITA, butjust to understand the first and last word of it. What is

the first word? - "DHARMAKHETRE KURUKHETRESAMABETAH YUJUSTUVAH, MAAMAKAAH

PANDAVAASCHAIBA KIMKURBATA SANJAY". Sothe first word is Dharma. What is the last word then ?

-"JATRA JOGESWARAH KRISHNO JATRA PARTHODHANURDHARAH, TATRA SRIFVIJAYO

VUTIRDHRUBA NITIRMATIRMAMA". So the last wordof Gita is Mama. Thus, "Dhrmam Mama" means we

have just to realize our Dharma and the entire Gita isfinished. What is our Dharma ? It has a very broader

concept. It is not reading Gita, Bible, Quran, etc. butdischarging one's duties and responsibilities according

to his capability with sincerity and honestly which hasbeen categorically emphasized in the "KARMAYOG"

of the holly Srimad Bhagwat Gita and many other hollybooks of different religions. The duties and

responsibilities as a true human being - as a unionmember, as an employee, as a father/mother, as a son/

daughter and above all as a responsible citizen.

Being in a service union, our Dharma is nothing

but to serve and to unite. So to have a clearunderstanding of the entire union, the very concepts

of Service and Union are to be understood. We haveto serve united and we have to be united to serve.

Service is the motto of the union. Only two words andtwo aspects. The theory is very simple. But it is highly

regretted that we are being divided and divided anddivided. While reviewing the glorious journey of the

NFPE, it is regretted that the Divide and Rule policy ofthe British Govt. still prevails even after 59 years of

Indian independence. They very ideology of Com DadaGhosh, "One union, One Industry" is gradually losing

its importance. After bifurcation of NFPTE to NFPEand NFTE, the chapter was not closed even with

creation of other two sister federations in the name ofNational and Bharatiya. Apart from these wings,

different associations according to cadres viz. Officers,ASPOs & Inspectors, Stenographers, Postal

Accounts Employees, Postal Administrative

Employees, SBCO Employees have been recognisedby the Govt. And now, the proposed "INDIAN POSTAL

SUPERVISORY OFFICERS & DDOs ASSOCIATION(LSG, HSG-II & HSG-I)" is certainly going to jeopardize

the unity of the postal employees in general and thatof the Group-C in particular since the economic,

political and moral role differ greatly from union to unionon the concept of responsible unionism and thus

weaken the capability of effective collective bargaining.The oldest, strongest and largest Federation i.e.

NFPTE alias NFPE is now being pored with mushroomgrowth of unions and associations perpetuating inter

and intra union rivalry affecting its strength, securityand its leadership on one side and reducing the average

strength of membership eroding the financial viabilityon the other. We can not disobey the fact that even

the smallest hole keeps every capability to demolishthe strongest dam.

So when we have to serve united and we haveto be united to serve, it is required to think in positive

affirmation with cultivation of personal life whichdepends on rectification of the mind. Being affected

by wrath, fear, fondness or worries and anxieties toany extent and beholden to personal desires with

complete attachment to individual interest, we fail toserve whole heartedly. The fever of power and portfolio

creates intentional fifts in the union. We have to learna lot how unity and unionism could destroy Italian

fascism, German Nazism, Japanese Militarism andEuropean Imperialism. We have to analyse as to why

and how there become an alliance betweendemocracies of Europe and communist Russia to fight

against Nazi-fascist powers in the interest of thegeneral human being. The reunion of West and East

Germany in 1990 with demolition of Berlin Wall after45 years of their historical division arising as an

immediate consequence of World War-II, clearlyjustifies the acts of unity and unionism. Thus, when

such great things could be possible, why can't weconsider it positive, if we can further be reunited from

ED (GDS) to AD in a common platform to satisfy thevery motto - One union, One Industry. Because, it is

quite evident that although our goal is one, we havehardly fought united irrespective of cadre and wing.

Not only the last General Strike on 14th December,2006, but many previous strikes and agitational

programmes have also witnessed the absence of othersister federations and associations and there by

standing in the way of total success.

And perhaps, this is the need of the time and

the situation when the working class in general is being

LET'S BE REUNITED


seriously ill treated by the bureaucracy in the

Department supported with the anti workers policy ofthe Government through liberalization, privatization and

globalization. The task may not be so easy in thebeginning, but there is no harm in accepting failure,

because failure is as much as a part of life and it givesthe opportunity to being again more intelligently. It does

not matter, how many times we get knocked down,but how many times we get up. Our greatest glory is

not in never falling but in rising each and every timewe fall. Is someone Listening?
