Sub: - Delivery of Citizen Centric Services from Post Offices through
Common Service Centre (CSC) - regarding.
Ref: - Directorate letter No.3.-1/2019 Plg, dated-
08.05.2020 addressed to all CPMsG.
Sir,
As
per instructions given to all CPMsG vide letter under reference, the
Directorate is planning to increase the number of Common Service Centres to
6000 Post Offices up to norm based LSG level across the nation.
It
is needless to reiterate that as many as 111 services will be provided to the
citizens through these proposed CSCs including Aadhaar Enrollement and
Updation, Passport Sewa etc which are being provided now. Among other important
services, CSCs will provide Mobile Updates, Demographic Updates, PAN Card,
Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, PM Aawas Yojana, PM Fasal Bima Yojana, PDS, Ayusman
Bharat Yojana, Birth / Death Certificate, Jiban Praman, IRCTC Ticket Booking,
Election/Labour/Pension/Employment related services, Several State Govt.
Services, Tours and Travel Services like Flight and Bus Ticket, Mobile and DTH
recharge, FASTag related services and several educational services.
We have the bitter experience of handling the Aadhaar Enrollment and
Updation, Passport Sewa etc. which are being provided now without additional
staff. In addition, there is pressure of IPPB Account opening, AePS
transactions, Jansuraksha Schemes and routine targets for POSB and PLI / RPLI.
As aware, now the ‘B’ Class and LSG Offices are almost running single handed
and most of the HSG-II and HSG-I Offices including HOs are running with acute
shortage of staff. Even it is too difficult to run the Aadhaar Centres
effectively for which our officials are being threatened and charge-sheeted for
not achieving the desired goals. Thus, with addition of hundreds of services
more, the Post Offices will be converted into crowded shopping malls rendering
ineffective service delivery far below the satisfaction of the members of
public.
Further,
the decision to extend opening of CSCs to 6000 Post offices is taken at a time
when COVID-19 pandemic is increasing in an alarming rate day by day and the
post offices across the nation have seriously failed to maintain social
distancing and periodical sanitization partly due to administrative lacuna and
partly due to cramped accommodation of the PO buildings with shortage of public
/ counter space. We have already sacrificed the available space for Aadhaar
Centres, Post Office Passport Sewa Kendra, IPPB Ltd and several Nodal Delivery
Centres for parcels, NSH, BPCs, BNPL Centres etc. in bigger offices for which
our own important branches like Mail Branch, SOSB, SBCOs etc. are running in
sheds and verandas in very pitiable conditions. Our own officials are also
treated differently in a sub-standard manner than the officials working in
POPSK and IPPB Ltd.
As understood, running of CSCs will demand special hands in each
identified post office which is not possible to spare except Head Offices /
GPOs which are having satisfactory staff strength since we have already
sacrificed several hands as SA, BE, PLI Group Leader, staff working in CBS and
PLI CPCs, Aadhaar Centres, POPSK and on deputation to IPPB. The whole work of
IPPB has been put on shoulders of Postal Staff and staff engaged in IPPB are
sitting idol in AC chambers and doing nothing.
It is therefore requested to kindly drop the idea of opening of CSCs
in Post offices which will be very troublesome for staff.
With regards,
Yours sincerely,

to dequarterize such sub stand post attached quarters and to pay the HRA to
such SPMs.
