Dear Postmasters,
The Postal
Directorate letter No 13/2/2014-SR dated 11th November, 2014 duly
published in our Blog on 17/11/2014 http://aiapcchq.blogspot.in/ is a giant
leap forward towards our goal of being recognised as a new service association
(All India
Association of Postmaster Cadre).
The letter from
Directorate removes all kinds of prejudices and doubts towards the formation of
our association but strengthen the prospects of formation of the same. That our
line of action is being already on the right track we need to fulfil the
omissions as suggested by the Directorate to enable them to consider our proposal.
It’s an appeal to
all concerned to take part in the process of obtaining recognition of Service
Association as per the following suggested course of action and strictly
adhering to the dates considering the reason to represent our matters before
the 7th Central Pay Commission for which early recognition of All India Association of
Postmaster Cadre is extremely essential.

Target date has been fixed as 15/12/2014 for collection of
Consent Forms and Authorisation Forms in duplicate from the members in

In the circles where ad-hoc body is yet to form like J&K,
HP, Uttarakhand, Hariyana, Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat,

body of All India Association of Postmaster Cadre by way of calling a general
