Madam,
Sub: Arbitrarily shifting of Divisional HQ from Cuttack to Bhubaneswar.
This is regarding arbitrarily shifting of Divisional HQ from Cuttack to
Bhubaneswar on the plea of affectedness of asbestos roof due to recent
cyclone ‘Fani’ against shifting RMS‘N’ Divisional Cuttack staff are
now on strike from today i.e. 14.05.2019.
Two months Earlier a proposal was given to C.O by SSRM ‘N’ Division
Cuttack for shifting HQr from Cuttack to Bhubaneswar as it has been
approved by Directorate for construction of the new building at present
Division office place. Divisional Unions of FNPO
& NFPE under the banner of PJCA served strike notice from 13th
March 2019 against the office shifting to Bhubaneswar and suggested to
shift it in the free accommodation at Cuttack G.P.O, SSPO Cuttack and
CPO premises.
The matter has brought to the notice of PJCA formed by Odisha Circle
Union to the CPMG, Odisha Circle on dated 12.02.2019, 26.02.2019 and
09.03.2019 regarding restoration of industrial peace. The matter also
has brought to the notice by PJCA at Directorate
level. However due to Intervention of Central headquarters of service
unions Circle Union made an agreement with circle administration and
strike proposal was called off based on the assurance shifting of RMS N
Division office will be stopped further administration
was informed by service unions that is there any change in this matter
service the union will go on strike without any notice to the
Department.
Now administration did not keep of promise, therefore, the staff went on
indefinite strike from today morning 6.00 hrs .
My CHQ request the Directorate kindly give suitable instruction to the CPMG Odisha to stop the
shifting of Divisional HQ from Cuttack to Bhubaneswar at the earliest.
Your s sincerely,
N.K Tygai.
General Secretary.
