Dear Comrade
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU AND
YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS
Let us this New Year be dawn with hopes for
the emancipation and advancement of Postal workers.
Hand Book 2012 will be despatched
to all branches next week. Since we took all pains for updating and
incorporating various new materials in the Hand Book, definitely it will not
only be a Hand Book but also a reference book to all postal officials and
published with a subsidiary rate of Rs.50/- per book.
Please indent the books and
distribute/sale to all members and in particular to all office bearers/new
recruited comrades. The CHQ’s only aim is to educate our comrades to know their
rights and also to protect them from any harassment. The Divisional/Branches
who have not indented sufficient copies earlier are requested to place indent
positively within a week.
Further the General Secretary’s
desk is attached herewith. Please translate the same in regional language and
circulate the same to all members and organise the 17.1.2012 strike very
effectively. Circle secretaries are requested to circulate this desk in local
language and intimate compliance.
Once again with New Year
greetings,
Comradely yours,
(K. V. Sridharan)
General Secretary
General
Secretary’s Desk
This
is a work paper relating to proposed
Indefinite
strike from 17.1.2012
Dear Comrade,
HAPPY
NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU AND YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS
Not often - but inevitable
The JCA has issued a Clarian call for indefinite
strike from 17.1.2012 demanding to stop the implementation of Mail Network
Optimization Project and settlement of assured charter of demands placed during
July 2011 strike. You may think why this call has been given again within a
short span of six months. This may perhaps, be due to the sufferings you are
experiencing at field levels in organizingthe members for strikes very often.
Abundant confidence
The Postal JCA deferred the indefinite strike in July
2011 with the hope that the commitments given by the Secretary, Department of Posts
herself and also recorded everything in the minutes will be honoured in true
spirit. But what happened? Except few, many major items are under still cold
storage. In the meantime, the Department declared that it is going to implement
the L1 & L2 proposals in toto unilaterally in the staff side meeting. What
is option available then for the JCA except to launch struggles against this
move?We are optimistic about our organizational strength that struggle
programmes are not new to the Postal employees as they had the history of
conducting various strikes including many one days in the C. G. Employees
movement after 1968 and also having the spirit for spontaneous action, alertness,
awareness and preparedness available in abundant for any action including local
struggles against injustice in the grass root level leaders.
Consultancy or conspiracy!
Why we are objecting the L1 & L2 scheme? First let
us clear that we are not against any modernization. But modernization shall not
pave way to dislocate staff and cause impair to the service. The proposal of L1
& L2 is not fully related to modernization also. The Postal department,
earlier appointed a foreign consultancy called KPMG by incurring crores of
rupees as consultancy charges and we don’t know the fate of its recommendations
and report.
Recently, the Department appointed Mckinsey as
consultancy service. Whether the Mckinsey consultancy is the lowest bidder! Not
at all! It is jus 12.66 crores of rupees. With exorbitant charges, it was
appointed as consultancy service. What is the need to make it as consultancy
service for such exorbitant rates? No one knows what is behind the curtain.
Notorious for privatization
of Government Services
If you go through industry insight of Mckinsey, you
can find the following: -
“Postal Express and Parcel
Services”
“In addition to new
technologies and systems, globalization, deregulation and privatization have
been the key drivers of change in the post and express world over the past two decades;Numerous
Postal companies have successfully navigated the path of privatization from
state monopolies to become listed companies.We support our clients as they
position themselves to meet regulatory requirements and accompany them on the
road to successful privatization.”
Not magic figure/only
arithmetic without survey
No ex-aggregation. The above are taken only from their
website.The Department has taken Mckensey not only for offering suggestions but
also of its implementation. The members of McKensey have behaved more than that
of the Chief PMGs in many places resulting with sporadic struggles in AP,
Karnataka &Tamilnadu circles. There after they were restrained. The Department
first issued orders for closure of 9797 (magic figure) post offices in urban
areas. This is not the figure arrived by collecting statistics on the basis of
financial viability or work load justification. Just it was based on the
mathematical calculations as per the suggestions of the consultancy service.
Deviating from social
obligation
The Department introduced ‘Speed Post hub’ and
centralized the speed post traffic. There was a hue and cry in case of intra
circle mails. High court of Himachal even criticized badly on this centralization.
But the officers at the helms of affairs stated that these intra circle mails are
negligible mails and we are concerned only for business. Really surprising!
Whether the postal service is deviating from the path of social service?
Eventhough it was agreed to open intra circle speed post centers, the Chief
PMG/PMGs are reluctant to implement the orders of the Directorate.
Whether Chief PMG or above
DG?
The Chief PMG, Maharashtra Circle has constituted an
internal committee for making recommendationson ‘how to reduce the deficit”.
The committee recommended for immediate down gradation of 39 single handed post
offices as BOs and down grade 549 single handed offices available in rural
areas as branch post offices. The remaining 349 offices in urban, 117 post
offices shall be merged immediately with the nearby offices and the remaining
offices will be downgraded/merged after exercising the establishment review.
The commitment
The Secretary, Department of Posts in the recorded
minutes issued on 6.7.2011 assured interalia: -
“Regarding closure/merger of post offices, the staff
side requested that whenever there is a closure of a PO, there should be
simultaneous relocation of PO in the new emerging areas etc. The view point of
the staff side was agreed to.”
Is agreement absurd?
Then how can be this contradiction? Whether the
Directorate instructions,as stated on 27.12.2011, circulated during August 2011
not exhibited the same spirit of the minutes? If so what is the action proposed
to be taken against the Chief PMG Maharashtra circle who proposed to close down
all the 898 single handed post offices in his circle unilaterally as if poses
himself higher than the Secretary?
Really no teeth or enactment
of Drama!
The same Chief PMG has closed down two sorting offices
resulting in 10 days strike of RMS employees of Maharashtra Circle during
November 2011. Despite the Department advised him not to close down those
offices, he did not care and refused to budge. The Directorate in the recorded
minutes assured that there will be no victimization, FR 17 (a) etc.; whereas
charge sheets, memo for issue of FR 17 (a) and all repressive measures have
been unleashed.
If the Directorate has no teeth to control
such lower officers, then what is the need of Apex level office and discussions
and agreements with unions? If no, is it the drama enacted to befool the unions?
If the same epidemic spreads to other circles what will be the position? Will
it not be nip in the bud itself?
Very firm to deteriorate the services!
Member (operation) has almost declared on 27.12.2011
in the talks that he will implement the L1 & L2 despite our protest and
will review after some years. How can we allow the L1 & L2 in RMS which
will hamper the efficiency of Postal services and lead the extinction of RMS.?
The Staff side raised many apprehensions about the
quality of mails processing which have not been kept for creating L1 & L2
and also the projects lack of the following three parameters.
i)
It is
not beneficial to customers.
ii)
Operative
cost will be more, compared to earlier.
iii)
Lead
to dislocation of staff and leading to ultimate closure of L2 offices.
The Staff also explained in its letter dt 07.12.2011
about the impracticability in introduction of L1 & L2 in many places. The
proposal is nothing but to centralize the sorting work at one place and
accumulate the staff to that place and later to introduce the Automatic sorting
machines for sorting work.
AMPCs – nothing but white
elephants
Now let us discuss about the AMPC functioning at Mumbai
& Chennai. Both are while elephants and causing loss in crores to the
department every year. The following is the version of the Chief PMG,
Maharashtra circle and not of the JCA/us.
“At present, a sum of Rs. 72,84, 864 is being spent
annually for maintenance and electricity charges of the AMPC machine. Besides
this, a sum of Rs. 10892064 is being incurred as establishment cost. There
would be a saving to the tune of Rs. 1,81,76,928/- per annum, if AMPC unit is
merged with, APSO, Mumbai.”
The Reality
When the department desires to introduce two more
AMPCs at Delhi, Kolkata and later on at all L1 offices, the above is the
statement of an officer about the loss incurred due to AMPCs. In Chennai, the
AMPC is not at all functioning and it is under condemned conditionsand the
mails received at Chennai Central/Egmore are back routed to AMPC (20 kms. away)
just to show some statistics and bringing back to same Central/Egmore for
transmission instead of sorting there itself.
Whimsical introductions –
resulting loss
Already experienced AMPCs become white elephants and
causing losses to the exchequer of the department, how can we allow introducing
machines in all stations. Let them first prove that the machines provided
earlier are worthy and purposeful. We should also remind how the officers in
Postal are working out new schemes without minding the loss.
(i)
There
is no consultation in the board and everything based on the desirability of the
individuals who are holding position and there are more sycophants.
(ii)
The
introduction of air freighter carrier caused loss to the tune of 300 crores.
Not only that, back routing of mails to provide sufficient loadsled to irreparable
damage to the department due to delay in delivery. Finally it was dropped. It
is pertinent to mention that the same lower level officers who were responsible
for the 300 crores loss are now advocating the L1 & L2 vigorously.
(iii)
For
Videshi MO, the soft purchased exceeded crores. What is the revenue?As learnt,
so far, 39 MOs to the revenue around Rs. 4000/- which cannot be equated to the
extent of 1% with the expenditure for launching the scheme.
(iv)
Introduction
of VSAT was a great failure.
(v)
Loss
incurring in BNPL articles due to return article & non realization of
revenue etc.
Chootu kool – the tip of the
ice burg
We can cite many business activities which resulted in
financial loss. For instance, in Maharashtra Circle Chotukool of Godrej was
marketed for higher cost than the MRP (MRP 3740/- but in Godrej Website it is
Rs. 3250/-) and out of 7169 sold, 5654 were sold to GDS; 857 were to
Departmental employees & only 658 were sold to Public. Is it real marketing
to deceive& cheat the lowest paid GDS Agents by offering loan with interest
from societies? The Chotukool loads were carried through MMS vans for which the
department has been served with notice by the revenue authorities. All the
marketing targets lead to exploitation of employees. Can anyone deny this bare
factor?
Compromise – not possible
Under these circumstances, where is the guarantee that
the formation of L1 &L2 will enhance the quality of service. It will
deteriorate further. The staff will be dislocated and the service will be
hampered. The staff side could not compromise these aspects and that is the
main reason for reviving the deferred strike with a short period of notice.
Determined negative position
against GDS
Let us discuss the other issues we notified in the
strike charter. The following are the assurances given in respect of the most
exploited GDS cadres.
(i)
Cash
handling points for BPM for fixation of TRCA will be reduced to 10,000/- from
20000/- within a week.
(ii)
Fresh
proposal will be sent to MOF for revision of bonus ceiling on GDS.
(iii)
Protection
of TRCA will be provided in the same stage in case of reduction of work.
But what happened? The internal finance in the
Directorate has simply turned down the files and the assurances were gone to
wind. We again discussed the same with Member (P) on 27.12.2011 for which she
replied that she cannot give any assurances in these issues. Discussing the
same issues again and again and taking different positions by the officers in
each time frustrates us.
No relief to bereaved family
– they are GDS
The department has issued orders for fixing norms for
compassionate appointment for GDS in which 25 points have been allotted for
Graduation for consideration. Is it having any sense? Whether the wards in
distress in rural areas could be expected to complete graduation when the
minimum qualification in fixed as matriculation for GDS appointment. For GDS
appointment under compassionate grounds 50% marks is compulsory; resulting in many
wards could not get their fair chance. The earlier orders to provide job
immediately after the demise of the GDS as a social obligation to the bereaved
family by relaxing the condition are brushed aside and the benefits extended
earlier to the family of the deceased poor GDS are restricted or deviated.
Half century old provision
for GDS freezed in toto
In respect of Postmen Recruitment Rules, 25% has been
allotted to direct recruitment from open market. It was 100% over 50 years and
this has been freezed due to personal ego of some officers who don’t want to
see the plight of poor GDS possessing more skills & qualifications.
The 25% recruitment among the GDS on seniority basis
has been thrown down. This was assured to consider by the Secretary herself
during the meeting held in July 2011. Now Member (P) on 27.12.2011 is stating
that is not possible since the department desires to inject direct recruits
from open market. Till date, we are saying the postmen recruitment as direct
recruitment quota only and not as promotion to GDS. The assurances to provide
norms for NREGIS work has not been compiled with so far.
Everything depends on moods
and tastes?
From the above, it could be evident that all the
assurances made during July 2011 in writing in respect of the most downtrodden
GDS have taken back by subsequent officers. Thus anything is not certain and
depends upon the mood and taste of the officers who are at helm of affairs at
present.
Denial of dues &
Deprivation to casual labourers – only in Postal
It was recorded in the minutes dt. 06.07.2011 that for
the casual labourers engaged prior to 1993, it was agreed to settle their case
for payment on prorate basis within one month and post 1.9.93 cases will be
taken up with MOF for settlement. Whether it is honoured? Not at all! A
committee has been constituted and now it is told that after the receipt of the
report, it will be considered. The Staff side is not consulted or provided a
chance to represent in such committees. It is only the Postal department that
the prorate wages as per sixth CPC has not been extended to casual labourers and
contingent employees. The assurances to appoint the contingent workers as GDS
and also to provide chances for their absorption in GDS vacancies have not been
implement so far.
OTA or pittance for extra
work
In all other Central Government department, the OTA
rates have been revised with new nomenclature. Railways revised the rates.
Defence enhanced the rates. The remaining only operative section, the postal
Department has not taken any efforts either to revise the rates or formulate
new methods for compensation in lieu of OTA. It is most unfortunate that meager
OTA ordered earlier are being recovered by applying the ceiling. In Haryana
circle, one RMS Supdt has issued FR 17(A) notice for non-performance of OTA.Where
are such provisions? Absurd. The department is not carrying out with any
concrete decision to arrest such menace even in the meeting held on 27.12.2011.
JCM – Conciliation to avoid
confrontation – But here confrontation seeking conciliation
As per the JCM Schemes, meeting should be held once in
three months but not later than six months and periodical meetings should be
held separately with each union once in four months. But there is no meeting
regularly held. Over six years, no periodical meeting is held. Only one
departmental council meeting was held in August 2010. Even the assurances given
in the meeting are not being implemented. The following are the few examples: -
(i)
Counting
of special allowance for pay fixation in case of PO & RMS Accountants –
Despite the Law ministry has given opinion that it is not a fit case for filing
SLP against Karnataka High court decisions and also our repeated requests, the
Department is seeking the opinion of circle heads. The file is still under
consideration.
(ii)
Discontinuing
the practice of obtaining fidelity/security bond from employees handling cash&
also SPMs – Despite 5th CPC has recommended for this, the same is
pending years together. The officials are unnecessarily paying premium to
credit societies every year a huge amount towards premium for renewing fidelity
band.
(iii)
Protection
of pay of defunct scale of PO &RMS Accountants – we are demandingthe
application of Directorate order No. 2-2/88-PE-I dt. 1.12.1992 issued in favour
of Sri. Natha Singh in Punjab Circle for the similarly situated persons. But no
decision has been taken yet on this issue.
(iv)
Arbitrary
and forcible allotment of Quarters in Rajasthan Circle.
(v)
Non
supply of statement of balance to the official brought under New Pension Scheme
2004.
(vi)
Non
grant of special allowance to unqualified Accountants.
(vii)
Enhancement
of financial powers of HSG I, HSG II & LSG Postmasters.
(viii)
Recovery
of alleged over payment of Pay & Allowances to Postman on account of
fixation from the officials working in Accounts branch.
(ix)
Tenure
posting of officials in single & double handed post offices & remove
the restriction posting of SPM due to minor penalties/CR entries.
(x)
Enhancement
of honorarium for engaging officials in departmental examinations.
(xi)
Allowing
to appear the physically handicapped officials for IPO exam.
(xii)
Transfer
of all HSG I posts to General line.
(xiii)
Revision
of cash Allowance to the SPMs handling cash in the absence of Treasurer &
grant of Treasury allowances to all posts irrespective of their position after
the grant of MACP promotions.
Most of the issues cited above are still in processing
stage only even after the lapse of 15 months. The delay over year causes
resentment.
Is cadre restructuring – A
mirage in Postal
The proposals for cadre restructuring have been discussed
more than six to seven times but no minutes were issued so far. The position is
still under the initial stage. The Secretary assured in the minutes that it
will be formulated before 31.8.2011. What are the reasons for such lethargy? Is
it not their responsibility to take serious note in this staff welfare? The
Sixth Pay Commission stated to finalise the cadre review proposal by the
department itself, but even after the lapse of 5 years, there is no move to
this direction in respect of our cadres.
Clear injustice and cheating
Member (P) while discussing the demands on 27.12.2011,
stated that it is not possible to create separate cadre for system
Administrators, as they are only PAs and now in all Post offices, the PAs are
becoming the trouble shooters.We recorded our objections. Then Secretary
praised the services of these officials at the time of extracting work from
them. Without spending a rupee the modernization in postal to the present
extent could be achieved due to their tireless and tedious work. After sucking
their blood, instead of recognizing their services, they are now sidelined.
Committee – to consider or
deny?
A separate committee consisting of three DDGs was
constituted to consider the proposals. We don’t know what the fate of the
committee is. In the last cadre review meeting,it was discussed and agreed for
the carving outthis cadre with higher promotional posts. If the department now
declines to consider this case, how can we allow?
No time! Very busy! Mckensey
is on the door!
The Postmen committee headed by Ms. KalpanaTiwary
General Manager, MB is still not met and the madam is very busy in implementing
the proposals of Mckensey anyhow in postal despite all odds and consequences.
All their problems are undressed. Their issues like combination of beats,double
duty, harassment in project arrow offices, distance factor, number of articles,
Grant of cycle allowance without distance conditions, good quality uniforms,
revision of norms etc. have not been taken for consideration and all are under
the cold storage.
All centralisation – But here
decentralization!
The only major demand of the Administrative union to
stop decentralisation of PLI and RPLI and save DPLI has not been taken due note
of and the rapid decentralisation has already taken off without providing any man
power or required infrastructure to operative staff in POs. The similar is the
situation in respect of Postal Accounts & civil wing and their genuine
grievances are not attended so far.
Lost identity – continuous
denial of dues
The only demand of the SBCO to declare it as divisional
cadre has been out rightly rejected by the member (P) on 27.12.2011 even though
it was assured to consider during the July 2011 talks. The genuine demands of
drivers who cannot be equated with staff car drivers due to their recruitment
condition of requirement of heavy vehicle licence and shall only be equated
either with railway or defence are not being met with justice. The same
condition prevails to Artisans & charge hands in MMS.
20 years demand – Not for
outright rejection
Member (P) out rightly rejected the demand on RTP to
consider their service for MACP promotion on 27.12.2011, instead of taking up the
cases with nodal ministries. Similarly the issues required clarifications on
MACP are also dealt with routine manner instead of considering the genuine
plight of the officials.
Importance of Accounts – How
can it be explained!
Member (P) is of the opinion that there is no need for
separate APM Accounts & others. The importance of Accounts and the role of
Accountants in all dealings have to be explained once again. That is the fate
of the unions.
Reminding black emergency
days to catch ‘Aadmis’ for family planning
The assurances made in July 2011 to permit the
Postmaster Grade I officials to appear IPO/Group ‘B’ examination has not been honored
yet. There is no clear cut decision on this even after five months. Our demand
to fill up all LSG, HSG II of HSG I Posts before implementation of postmaster’s
cadre by relaxing the conditions has not at all been considered.
No! No! – you are similarly
situated Persons!
The request to apply the Supreme Court judgment on RRR
Candidates of Tamilnadu circle to all the similarly situated persons has been turned
down by Member (P) on 27.12.2011.
Contributory negligence –
Democle’s sword
We demanded to issue a clarificatory orders to arrest
the menace of misuse of contributory negligence factors against innocent officials
as the instruction issued in July 2011 is totally insufficient and not covered
all the following important points.
(i)
Non
adherence of DG’s order dated 09.07.1959
(ii)
Violation
of Directorate orders dt. 30.11.60 & 10.02.1975
(iii)
Non
observation of Appendix 4 of FHB vol. I.
(iv)
Violation
or Rule 204 (A) (1) Vol III – Honest errors can be condoned.
(v)
Violation
of Rule 137-Recovery from retired officials.
(vi)
Violation
of Rule 106, 107 & 108 Vol III – Extenuating factors should be given due
weight.
(vii)
Violation
of Directorate orders dt. 8.10.63 – Minor mistakes in discharging duties to be
condoned.
(viii)
Violation
of Dte. letter dated 29.11.2000 about Rule 11 (iii) of CCS Rules.
Misuse of powers! Not at
lower level! By the power at Apex level
There is total misuse of Contributory negligence
factors. APM (Accounts) & Accountants who have not obtained declaration at
the time of 5th CPC are being ordered with recovery to the extent of
7 to 8 lakhs in each case. How can it be justified? The Chief PMG, MP Circle
& Chief PMG Tamilnadu clarified about fixation of postman pay by taking two
advance increments for each case. Whether the department will initiate action
against them to recover the whole amount from them for issue of such
clarifications in respect of their circle? If the department did not like to
waive the over payment, it would have filed SLP in the Supreme court against Principle
CAT orders and this is nothing but absolute misuse of this provisions.
Minus Balance – major threat
In many circles recoveries under contributory
negligence on SB minus balance are being ordered without initiating any action
to recover the amount first from the depositors. Before finalizing the minus
balance, whether the unposted items have been cleared or not? Not at all! Just
by hook or crook the responsibility is being fixed on anyone’s shoulder! No
norms! No ethics! The suggestion of the CHQ to adjust them under UCP and
initiate action to recover the amount from deposit which was discussed in the last
July 2011 meeting also has not at all been considered!
Curbs in trade unions – topsy
turvey actions against rules at circle levels
This is another serious development in recent days in
many circles in curbing the trade union activities at circle level.
When Sri. B. BhagwanDass Member (D) clarified vide his
letter No. 8-1/2001-SR dated 7.2.2001 that FR 17 (A) can be imposed only in
cases of incitement, instances of violence and sabotage etc.
Whereas, the same is flouted in many circles and the
circle heads are running amuck with their own views.
(i)
In
Punjab circle, Jullendhar division, the officials availed EL/MC from 24.5.2011
to 26.5.2011 and also for two or three days suffix/prefix were awarded Dies non
with the presumption that they would have been attended Dharna at Chandigarh
organized by the Postal JCA on 25.05.2011
(Where is
the provision?)
(ii)
For
participation of strike on 7.9.2010, All India strike more than 500 GDS where
awarded with FR 17 (A). Is it not violating the Directorate orders cited above?
Similar is the case in Pune RMS.
(iii)
In
Mumbai City West division, the SPMs who have already given their declaration
about their participation of strike on 7.9.2010 and the ASPOs replied that he
could not make any arrangements were proceeded with Rule 16 charges. The SPOs punished
them with censure. Now the DPS reviewed and issued notice to 28 Officials to
enhance the punishment from censure to withholding one increment for 24 months
and awarded the same to one official at first. The DPS charged that the
official should have come to control room and deposit key on 7.9.2010. Is there
any such provision to deposit the key in the rules without handing over the
charge to other? How can it be violated the Rule? Is it not absolute misuse of
disciplinary powers and excessive action? When the strike on 7.9.2010 was not
declared as illegal, whether such proceedings will meet justice. When these
were brought to the notice of Directorate,it remains as mute spectators.
Unbridled horses – silent
spectators at
The above are the real facts and nothing exaggerated.
Under these circumstances what will be the option available to unions to
ventilate their grievances. Even assured demands are not honored and diluted
what is the remedy available for us. When all the circle/divisional heads and
PTC Directors are taking law on their hands to penalize the officials for no
reason, how we can shut our eyes.
We have no alternative
The Postal JCA after elaborating all these issues and
facts have decided to go ahead with the preparation for the indefinite strike
from 17th January 2012.
Therefore it is our fervent appeal that all our circle
secretaries/divisional secretaries shall rise up to the occasion and organize
the workers for the total participation of officials in the ensuring strike.
