Division No. 08/07/2014-SR dated 5th May,2015.
Madam.
Kindly refer to the discussion held in the meeting on 30.04.2015 on PJCA Strike
Charter of Demands. There is no remarkable progress on most of the items.
Though all items are important but two items are most important which are
mentioned below and the reply given by the Department is also reproduced below:
Item -2 Inclusion
of Gramin Dak Sevaks (GDS) in the terms of reference of
7th Central Pay Commission. Grant of
civil servant status to GDS and grant of
all benefits of departmental employees on pro-rata basis without any
discrimination.
Reply: It was decided that the proposal
will be strongly recommended and
referred to D/o
Expenditure for reconsideration. (Action DDG (Estt)
Item. 9: Implement cadre restructuring in postal, RMS,
MMS and Postal
Accounts as per the proposal signed with the JCM (DC) staff side
Reply: The proposal for cadre
restructuring of Gr. ‘C’ employees, will be sent to DOP&T next week.
The proposal for MMS and DAP will be sent to DOP&T
within a period of two months.
(Action DDG (Estt) / DDG(PAF)
But it is very sorry to say that no progress is reported on the both items. It
is learnt that 7th CPC is now preparing report and may submit its
report to Finance Ministry upto 31s August, 2015 and its report will be
implemented w.e.f. 01.01.2016. But there is no response about
inclusion of GDS in 7th CPC. The poor GDS employees are eagerly
waiting the favourable decision but it appears that they are being deprived
from their basic rights and natural justice.
Similar is the position of Cadre Restructuring. After lapse of three months
period there is no response from Department. During the meeting it was assured
that cadre restructuring will be implemented before 31st July 2015
though later it was not mentioned in the minutes. If the Cadre restructuring
proposal is not implemented before 7th CPC report, the entire
process will go in vain and Postal employees will be deprived from their
benefit.
It is therefore requested to kindly bestow your personal attention on the
matters and cause early redressal of the grievances to maintain co-ordial
relations between staff and administration failing which the unions will be compelled
to launch agitational programmes.
Hoping for a positive response,
Yours Sincerely
