Mission of TeamAIAPC at the Directorate on 15/09/2016: Observation of ground reality about Postmasters

In a mission to the Directorate on 15/09/2016, TeamAIAPC observed the ground reality of what is happening there about the Postmaster Gr-I, II & III. Outcome of that visit summarized below in brief for information of all the Postmasters with request not to float in air and come out from your comfort zone.

Sections
Information gathered
Pay Commission Cell, ADG (GDS)
Sub:
Upgradation of GP
TeamAIAPC visited here for the purpose of outcome of matter regarding upgradation of GP 4200, 4600, 4800, 5400 for PM-I, II, III & Sr PM respectively. As per discussion held at this s
ection, we have been advised that our representation must be put up to The Chairman, Anomaly Committee, Dak Bhawan New Delhi-1 only in respect of 7th CPC.
ADG (SPN)
Sub:
One time relaxation & more
It is our bad luck that the ADG (SPN) is now transferred to another ministry (Ministry of Food). The post is vacant now and will be filled up within a few days. As per discussion held at this section, our letter regarding one time relaxation & more for promotion to Gr-II & III already available with them. A healthy debate was held between on one time relaxation. After a threadbare discussion, they were convinced and agreed that letter will be considered positively on top priority.

Subject:
Cadre Restructuring of PM Cadre
Our team visited here basically for Cadre Restructuring of PM Cadre The ADG Est-1 was on leave. During the discussion held at this section, it has come to the notice that the CR process of RMS & SBCO is going on.
TeamAIAPC also informed that already an internal meeting was held at the Directorate regarding CR of remaining cadres. In this meeting it was resolved that as PM Cadre has not yet completed its minimum service for 5 yrs required for CR, hence the CR for PM Cadre could not preformed at this time. An extract of DOPT’s instruction in this regard is reproduced below:
Cadre review is an important aspect of cadre management. It ensures a healthy balance between the functional requirements of an organisation and legitimate career aspirations of its officers. The thrust of such an exercise is on scientific manpower projection and recruitment planning in order to rationalise the cadre structure as also to enhance efficiency, morale and effectiveness of the service/cadre. In terms of the extant guidelines, ideal periodicity of cadre review is once every five years.

However, we have been assured that after completion of RMS & SBCO etc., the CR of PM Cadre will be considered in favourable manner. We provided all of our logics while discussion, but we was advised by the concerned section that all of our anomaly must be re-submitted in proper manner with all grievances at the end of December-2016 or starting of January -2017.

Examinations

Exams of IP / PSS Group-B are on top priority. Exam on PM Grade-1 will be in Feb-2017 expectedly.
ADG (SPG)
Sub:
RR for Sr PM

RR of PSS Group-B is under process. After that RR for Sr PM will be taken up afresh expectedly. We have to use all wise ways to have our right.
ADG, Estt-2
Sub:
RR for PM-I, II & III

Series of our letter regarding change/modification in RR of PM Gr-I, II & III are attached to ADG(SPN). So ADG (SPN) will consider those and TeamAIAPC has to pursue all those matters on regular ongoing process basis


This is the pen picture of ground reality what is happening in the Directorate. Postmasters active on whatsapp must be aware of the fact and are invited to participate in the real struggle.

Please think we are too much late. Actually AIAPC came in real action at the end of 2014 or starting of 2015. We spent initial three years in childish manner. Now it should be our top priority to fill up this gap and we have to accelerate the struggle in full swing and each & every Postmaster (Grade-I, II & III) must be aware of the ground reality. Still a good number of them are members of Gr-C or other association. They must be aware of the fact how DOP has ruined our career.

Leaders of Gr-C federations drop crocodile's tears in front of us. Because of them AIAPC was deprived from taking part in the Membership Verification Process-2015. Only because of them, there is no unity among Postmasters. They are taking this opportunity and using them as their trump cards. Our Postmasters are still feeding them by subscribing from pay roll though they are making us fool. If our Postmasters can't through them from their mind, nothing is possible. However AIAPC will continue its fight for PM Cadre.

Now the policy must be adopted of "Everything is fare in Love & War". AIAPC has to pressurize the DOP but with unity.

  1. Postmaster cadre was introduced during December 2010. Already 5 years 9 months was completed. There is no question of not completing 5 years for cadre restructure. If so in that bilateral agreement between dop and staff side, administration should not be given with the assurance of on the light of the same cadre restructure will be considered for PM cadre at par with Group_C cadre. What are all these?

  3. Dear comrade, I thank you for the sincere efforts being done by you.I would like to request you that we may please be known about the latest status of CAT case filed by you in Jodhpur bench in connection with formation of separate association of Postmaster cadre.Secondly I would like to request you that circle level association may be formed in each circle and special donation may be collected for strengthening the economic position of the association so that we may be able to fight for the discrimination done by the department. Grade pay hike is the main issue,it is very much astonishing that the post of Inspector Posts which was equivalent to the post of LSG has been upgraded to the level of HSG-I(Pay scale-700-900 in IIIrd Pay commn,2000-3200 in IV Pay commn,6500-10500 in V CPC,4600 Grade Pay in 6CPC & level-7 in 7CPC) by jumping HSG-II(Pay scale 550-700 in IIICPC,1600-2660 inIV CPC,5000-8000 in 5th CPC,4200 Grade pay in 6CPC and now level-7 in 7CPC)while in the past HSG-II was the promotional post of Inspector Posts in III CPC.further all the posts of HSG-II were made available for general officials even then Inspector Posts enjoyed the promotion of HSG-II in IV CPC and got the benefit of FR-22C and then promoted to ASP cadre again got the benefit of FR-22(I)a(i) in IV CPC and further promoted to HSG-I got same benefit and further promoted to group-B.This cadre is getting all benefits because they are putting their demands before the government/DTE and pursuing the case with the tribunal,therefore all efforts may be done by our association for up gradation of Pay scales (levels)of Postmaster cadre officials.

  4. dear friends
    This is really shocking,
    1. no Cadre restructuring with a completely wrong notion that the cadre has not completed 5 years even though we have completed 5 yrs.
    2.No permission to write [IP] group B exams even though there was no such mention of the same in the initial orders.
    3.No separate pay scales although it is crystal clear that we are doing very fine in all aspects by taking extra responsibility for no financial benefit
    4.Ours is a separate cadre but can be a member of other Group c unions ....!
