Railways insisted for payment of haulagecharges for conveyance of Mails and was agreed upon.Mail collection, processing, transmission and delivery arethe core activities of the Postal Department. Mail iscollected from 5.9 lakh letter boxes in the country. This isprocessed by a network of 472 Railway Mail Service officesand conveyed by road, Rail and Airlines all over the countryand abroad.

The Mail Motor Service (MMS) is responsible formaintenance, operations and administrations of 1137vehicles and 486 staff cars/inspection vehicle. The MMSoperates from 94 stations in the country. These vehiclescovered 26 million Kms for conveyance of mails.

At the time of independence of our country therewere 23,344 post offices. Gradually the strength hasbecome 1.55 lakhs today. The Dept. has developedmultifarious activities in the Post office. Post offices inurban and rural areas provide a range of basic postalservices to the customers including banking andinsurance services. India has the largest postal networkin the world.

The Dept. of Posts launched various valueadded Postal services in recent years which include,Speed Post, Business Post, Express parcel Post,Greeting Post, Data Post, Speed Post Passport Service,Bill Mail Post, e-Post and e-Bill Post etc.

In the area of financial services the facilities forInternational Money Transfer, Electronic Fund Transfer,

Electronic Clearance Service, Warrant Payment, Sale ofMutual Fund and Bonds etc. have also been introduced.The Post office saving bank in the country is the largestBank in the country both in terms of number of accountholders and the volume of deposits.

Postal Life Insurance was introduced as early1884 and emerged as the second largest insurancesector next to LIC. During 1995, Rural Life Insurance forthe benefit of rural masses was introduced. A vastdevelopment in the insurance coverage has since beenacquired.

The subservience of Indian Government to thedictates of the forces of liberalization and globalizationhas stamped its adverse impact on Postal services andstaff. The basic concept of Indian Postal Departmenthas undergone a material change with the change ofpolicy of the Central Government from that ofstrengthening the infrastructure of public sector, to one ofdismantling of the Government/Public sectororganizations.

The concept of Indian Postal Department hasbeen one of service oriented. It is no more so. Thedeclared policy of department of Posts is now‘commercial’. This is due to the policy decisions takenby Government of India not to subsidize the loss after thecurrent five-year plan period and the department shouldstand on its own legs for maintaining its existence. TheGovernment is no more going to shoulder any burden inrunning the postal services to its people. This basicchange is driving the authorities to discover and alsoinvent methods to commercially run the postal department.

It was this adaptation of the policy of liberalizationby the Government which created a soft corner towardsprivate courier services who were running their illegaloperations in violation of India Post Office Act, 1898. Itwas in line with the demand of the forces of privatizationto open up all areas to their entry and for profit making.The growth of courier services started eating into the vitalsof postal basic operations. This came in handy toGovernment to stop its expanding operations and toreduce its existing work force for bringing down fiscaldeficit.

The expansion of services was relegated tobackside. Almost the number of offices got stagnatedbut for minor or gradual increase. Practically speakingall development activities have come to a stop with theushering in of liberalization when the whole shift is infavour of privatization of Government and public sectors.

An important factor that glossed over by lookingat the figures of personnel is that it includes a massive3,00,000 Gramin Dak Sevaks (GDS) Employees. Theyare being paid megre wages for the number of hoursthey work. This is a cheaper labour system facilitating


lower cost of production to the management. Similarlyout of a total of 1,55,618 post offices only 28752 postoffices are departmental offices. Huge number viz.1,26,866 Post Offices are Extra Departmental Post Offices.

Department of posts has forced to go on anattacking mode. In its need to become self-reliant andnot dependent on the budgetary support, its whole outlookis becoming commercial on the one hand attacking theinterests of staff on the other . The department has evolvedits strategy accordingly and now the long-term strategy ofthe Department of posts has been identified as providingquality service in a deficit free environment with a shortterm tactical goal of optimizing its resources, start newservices whenever it falls within the overall financialstrategy.

It has been earmarked that the loss of theDepartment of Posts shall be progressively reducedduring the Five - Year plan to enable to reach a zero percentloss in 2013-14.

To reach a deficit free environment it isdepending on withdrawal of services from many areas tooutsource the functions and down size establishmentstrength considerably. The department has evolved aroad map to convert it into profit oriented commercialservices. A policy decision has been taken to seriouslyconsider merger of RMS with Post Offices. Similarly theidea of abolishing MMS and outsource the function ofmail conveyance under the name of unproductiveoperations is engaging its serious attention. Curtailmentof deliveries have become the order of the day.

The department is debating whether it will be itsbest option to abolish so called non-remunerative postoffices. They argue that 11% of post offices are situatedin urban areas and 89 % in rural India and majority ofthese offices are either single handed or double handed.They calculate that approximately 59 % of these single handedpost offices are under the category of loss making ! Such ofthose offices are to be closed, relocated or merged. Intheir places franchise Post offices (private post offices)are to be opened.

The India Post is moving towards convertingitself into different Postal Corporations. If it was notalready done as like the Telecommunications, then theprimary reason is the annual deficit the Postal Departmentis facing and also the fear of immediate liabilities of theGovernment to streamline the services.

With the corporatisation the status will chargefrom a government service into a public sector service.This will be necessary to continue its further journey intothe channels of privatization ! The only major constraint isits financial viability to exist its presence. Therefore thewhole stress is to make the department financially viableand then go for Corporation of Postal Services ! To makeit financially viable lot of new schemes are being workedout under the guidance of Planning Commission andforeign consultants.

It can however be seen that the very concept ofloss making department is wrong. One should notcategorize postal a heavy loss making department withouttaking into account certain important factors. For exampleit can be seen that the department of posts has got itsobligations called the Universal Service obligations (USO)and this causes the India Posts a loss of around 700crores every year. The responsibility under the USOshould naturally rest with the Government of India andnot on the department. Therefore annual budgetaryallotment to that extent cannot be dispensed with by theCentral Government. The entire postal savings bankoperations are being run on behalf of the Finance Ministryand department is paid the handling charges. In fact43% total revenue earned by the department is out ofthese financial services. Even the rate of handlingcharges as agreed upon the Ministry of Finance (MOF) isnot forthcoming but kept at the constant level. Actual dueshare of handling charges are to come from the MOF. Ifdue share is transferred to the Postal department, thenthere is no reason at all for deficit in the India Posts. It isalso to be noted that Rs. 1200 crore is spent by thedepartment for payment of pensions to the pensionersof the Department of Posts from the fund of Postaldepartment. In the case of other employees of the CentralGovernment departments the pension is paid from theconsolidated fund of Government except Railways. Fromthe above it can be seen that there is no deficit increasingby the Department of Post but is in profit. The attitudetowards Department of Posts by the Government got tobe changed.

The retrograde policies persued by theGovernment under the globalization policies aredetrimental not only to the interest of the Postal Servicebut to the 5.5 lakh work force and also to the commonman. These anti people and anti worker policies are tobe reversed. To achieve this goal, united resistancemovement has to be further strengthened so as to forcethe Government of India to withdraw from its pemiciouseconomic policies.

Let us march ahead unitedly with the

mainstream workers to achieve this goal for the benefit

of working class and downtrodden masses.

PENDING ITEMS CONTAINED IN THE CHARTER OF DEMANDS IN RESPECT OF AIPEU GROUP ‘C’UNION, WHICH REQUIRE DISCUSSIONS & SETTLEMENT

SL. NO. as PER

ATR

SUBJECTS STAFF SIDE NOTE TO WHOM

1 (i) Recast the notional promotions since1982/1983 onwards and fill up all vacant posts of LSG/HSG II & HSG-I.

Apart from Bihar, Rajasthan, NE, Jharkhand, the Circles like Madhya Pradesh & J K Circles, the process of notional promotions has not been exercised yet. In West Bengal it was partial. The issue related to Orissa has not yet been settled despite orders from the Directorate. Since the notional promotion is the basis for higher promotion like HSG II & HSG I, the delay is deplorable. Specific target date should be fixed for finalizing the issues to all circles.

DDG (P)

1 (ii) Fill up 2/3rd

unfilled LSG vacancies notionally from 7.2.02 to 18.05.2006.

If the unfilled up vacancies under 2/3rd

vacancies from 4.1.02 to 18.5.06 were filled up notionally instead of prospective effect in 2007/08, there may be more number officials becoming eligible for HSG II promotion. This may please be considered.

DDG (P)

1 (iii) Relax minimum-qualifying service for HSG II promotion

(i) It was assured during the talks held on 19.4.07 to relax minimum qualifying service for HSG II promotion in order to fill up the HSG II posts in the absence of eligible LSG officials.

(ii) Further DOPT vide its OM No, 28036/01/2007-Estt (D) dt 14.11.08 delegated the power of relaxation to concerned Ministries/Department in respect of Group C & D posts. Hence this may please be considered.

(iii) Based on the same order cited in Para supra, all the vacant HSG I posts may also be filled up on ad hoc basis by relaxing the conditions further.

DDG (P)

1 (iv) Irregular application of bench mark of current period for notional promotions.

The instructions of DOPT dt. 16.6.2000, that only CRS for the year immediately preceding the years of vacancy/Panel should be considered if DPC are held later then the schedule prescribed in model calendar” has not been taken note in many circles and current bench marks were applied wrongly for the notional promotions. A clarificatory orders may be issued to rectify the mistakes. Further in some circles, the bench mark was applied for TBOP/BCR promotion, despite the existence of clear cut orders from the Directorate. Moreover, it is requested to waive the application of Bench marks up to 2008 since the seriousness was not felt in the dept and the CRS were written by the divisional heads in a casual manner.

DDG (P)

1 (v) Date of LSG Promotion be calculated from the date of issue of orders and not from the date of joining.

The DOP&T guidelines as stated in ATR has not been followed in many circles. In Tamilnadu, the seniority in the LSG promotions were given effect from the date of joining the post. Suitable instructions may be issued to all circles.

DDG (P)

1 (vi) Grant of modification of LSG as one time measure for those aggrieved due to dearth of LSG vacancies/Rule 38 transfers.

(i) Since the LSG notional promotion was granted on notional basis, in some divisions due to more number of LSG posts in existence, the juniors got their LSG promotions. In other divisions due to dearth of LSG Posts, the seniors are deprived of notional promotion

(ii) Similarly, Rule 38 transferees could not get their LSG notional promotion due to application of divisional Gradation list.

In order to mitigate the genuine grievances of the above said officials in promotional aspects, modification of LSG by granting notional promotion may be explored since the anomaly is prevailing due to various changes made in the procedure of LSG/HSG II recruitment rules.

1 (vii) Drawal of pay to senior BCR officials in (i) The provision of officiating in higher post and grant of higher pay for DDG (P)

1 (vi) Grant of modification of LSG as one

time measure for those aggrieved due to dearth of LSG vacancies/Rule 38 transfers.

(i) Since the LSG notional promotion was granted on notional basis, in some divisions due to more number of LSG posts in existence, the juniors got their LSG promotions. In other divisions due to dearth of LSG Posts, the seniors are deprived of notional promotion

(ii) Similarly, Rule 38 transferees could not get their LSG notional promotion due to application of divisional Gradation list.

In order to mitigate the genuine grievances of the above said officials in promotional aspects, modification of LSG by granting notional promotion may be explored since the anomaly is prevailing due to various changes made in the procedure of LSG/HSG II recruitment rules.

DDG (P)

1 (vii) Drawal of pay to senior BCR officials in HSG I posts as the pay scales of HSG II & BCR is one and the same & settlement of earlier officiating cases of Tamilnadu, West Bengal & other Circles as one time measure.

(i) The provision of officiating in higher post and grant of higher pay for the officiating period beyond 14 days is very much in existence in the Department of posts. This was not termed as adhoc promotion. The arrangements were being made for short term arrangements.

(ii) Further pay scale of HSG II & BCR is one and the same. BCR officials are holding the pay scale equal to HSG II and when they have been ordered to officiate in HSG I, they are entitled for officiating pay.

(iii) In some circles, regular HSG II officials have been ordered to work in HSG I posts without any extra remuneration.

(iv) In some circles like Tamilnadu, West Bengal, some senior officials have been ordered to officiate in HSG I posts of more than one year during 2002 to 2005 in the absence of clear cut clarifications and circle heads has already referred the cases to Directorate to regularize the arrangements beyond one year as one time measure which is pending over two years. The due officiating pay had neither drawn nor taken for retirement benefits.

(v) 1622 HSG I posts have been upgraded only on matching schemes by axing 680 PA posts and as such the denial of due benefits/higher pay is arbitrary, unjust and against to the canon of natural justice.

DDG (P)

1 (viii) Fill up all the vacancies by relaxing the minimum qualified service for HSG-II and HSG-I promotion.

(i) Since the DOPT vide its OM dt. 14.11.08 has delegated the power of ad hoc appointment up to the period of three years to the concerned department, all the posts may be filled up by relaxing the conditions. (ii) Revise the HSG I Recruitment Rules by relaxing the conditions of service to 1 years & declare all HSG – I posts to General line and regularize the ad hoc promotions in HSG I with retrospective effect.

DDG (P)

1 (ix) Anomaly in the preparation of PA Gradation list. Date of confirmation should not be taken now and Date of appointment be taken for construing

In many divisions, the confirmation was not exercised for many years after the introduction of TBOP, and only Divisional Gradation list was maintained. When a new Circle gradation list is now prepared, it should be on the basis of present rulings and since the confirmation was

DDG (P)

2. Withdraw the draconian orders contained in the Dte letter No. 22-5/95- PE.I dated 21.05.07 denying BCR benefits to those declining LSG promotion. Several officials were arbitrarily, unjustified denied the due BCR Promotions

(i) The issue was taken by this union too many times. We record our concern that in the ATR, it was mentioned that the representation of other unions alone was considered and modified to that extent.

(ii) TBOP& BCR are not termed as ACP promotions and the guidelines on ACP should not be applied in this case.

(iii) TBOP, BCR & regular promotions are two distinct matters and TBOP/BCR has implemented on matching savings.

It is requested to review and withdraw the orders

DDG (P)

3. Filling up the APM Accounts LSG, HSG-II posts as per 1976 LSG Accountants Recruitment Rules.

A time schedule should be made to sort out the long pending issue. This should not be protracted further. The modalities in resolving the issue may please be briefed.

DDG (P)

4. Filling up Residual vacancies since 1999-2000 onwards without any further delay; and return the deputationists from CO/RO to manage the acute shortage of staff in divisions.

(i) A kind attention to invited to the discussions had on 13.1.09. Two instructions of the Directorate were handed over. Unless suitable clarifications is issued both by the staff & establishment divisions, the issue will not be sorted out. Vacancy position & follow up action of each circle if appraised will resolve the problem once for all. (ii) Since there is acute shortage in operative side, the deputationists may be returned back forthwith. (iii) There is no action to fill up the vacancies at Orissa, West Bengal, Bihar etc. In Tamilnadu the process the filling up of 852 PA posts has not started as they are kept reserved for RRR candidates. In AP, Maharashtra, the process has not finalized.

5. Immediate withdrawal of orders discriminating regular and FTP LSG and posting them in Delivery offices.

LETTER FROM DEPARTMENT ON CHARTER OF DEMANDS


Letter No.: P/2-8/H. P. Circle Dated - 14.08.2009

addressed to the Secretary, Department of Posts, Dak

Bhawan, New Delhi - 110001

lllll Non declaration of LGO examination results -case of Himachal Pradesh Circle

It is brought to our notice that the result of theLGO examination held on 27.12.2008 has not beenannounced so far by the circle administration.

When the issue was taken by the circle union, theChief PMG has replied vide his letter dated 15.07.2009that the declaration of result is being delayed due to nonreceipt of clarification from the Directorate. The copy to theChief PMG's letter is enclosed for your reference. The delayin declaration of result over eight month is deplorable.

It is therefore requested to expedite theclarification at the earliest and ensure immediatedeclaration of the result for the said examination.Letter No.: P/4-1/Staff Dated - 12.08.2009 addressed to

Sri. R. K. Singh, Member (P), Department of Posts, Dak

lllll Permanent absorption of AAOS as one timemeasure in Department of Telecom - reg.

While thanking the gesture in calling for willingnessamong the Qualified JAOs working in the Department forthe permanent absorption as one time basis in theDepartment of Telecom vide department letter dt. 07.08.09,the time limit for receiving the application at the Directoratewhich is fixed as 21.08.2009 is too insufficient.

The official should have been given adequatetime to offer their willingness and it is pertinent that asthere are more holidays in the following week, atleast,the applications submitted by the officials to theirrespective units up to 21.08.2009 should be entertained.

Since the issue relates to the promotionalaspects of the qualified candidates, a positive approachmay please be ensured to entertain the applicationssubmitted up to 21.08.09 by the officials and the timeprescribed for the receipt of applications to the Directoratemay be suitably modified.Letter No.: P/4-1/Staff Dated - 12.08.2009 addressed toSri. R. K. Singh, Member (P), Department of Posts, DakBhawan, New Delhi - 110001

lllll Request of officials on adhoc promotion forchange of postings - reg.

The Chief PMG, Tamilnadu Circle vide his letterdated 03.08.09 has intimated to all regional heads thatthe requests received from officials on adhoc promotionneed not be acceded to, as an adhoc arrangement cannotbe replaced with another adhoc arrangement and it canbe done only on regular promotion.

This clarification is arbitrary and unjust. Adhocarrangements in HSG I promotions are continuing overthree years and many officials have joined the vacantposts far away from their stations on adhoc promotionsand awaiting for transfer.

LETTERS TO DEPARTMENTThe recent local instructions has prevented many

officials awaiting for transfer to remain in the present stationswhere they were posted earlier eventhough there arevacancies available nearer to their home towns stations.There are several cases pending in Tamilnadu Circle andas such, the local clarification is causing a concern.

It is therefore requested to intervene and causesuitable instructions to consider the request of the officialswho are on adhoc promotion in HSG I & other cadres.Letter No.: P/2-16/Orissa Circle Dated - 18.08.2009

addressed to Sri. R. K. Singh, Member (P), Department of

Posts, Dak Bhawan, New Delhi - 110001

Arbitrary issue of regular HSG II Promotionbefore sorting out the irregularities in the notionalpromotions in LSG cadre - case of Orissa Circle

It is rather dismayed to note that the Chief PMG,Orissa circle has convened the DPC for regular HSG IIpromotion before recasting the LSG notional promotionsand revise the seniority accordingly as per the Directorateletter No. 137-04-2008 - SPB II dt. 09.02.09 & 22.07.09which has resulted all the exercise made by theDirectorate with futile results in rendering justice to theaggrieved officials.

There are more than 200 LSG Posts unfilledunder notional promotions since 1984 in Orissa Circle atthe time of introduction of TBOP promotion. They neithertreated the 20% LSG Posts as LSG or created PA postsduly downgrading those posts. After it was ascertained,the Directorate has caused crystal clear instructions videits letter dated 09.02.2009 which has not beenimplemented so far.

Unless all these LSG posts are being filled up withnotional promotion since 1984, the seniors will be deprivedof their due HSG II and HSG I promotions whereas the juniors,will become seniors.

To add fuel to fire, the Chief PMG has not onlyignoring the directives of the Directorate but accordedHSG II promotion on regular basis to all the junior mostLSG officials which causes a serious concern.

It is pertinent to note that when the issue wasdiscussed with Chief PMG by Circle Secretary, the ChiefPMG has informed him that she had completed theprocess only with the consultation of Member (P) andother officers of the Directorate and directed the CircleSecretary to take up the issue with Directorate if aggrieved.We are still confident that the Directorate may not issuesuch oral orders to make the written orders obsolete inthe absence of any justified reasons.

Under the Circumstances, it is requested thatthe issue may be reviewed once again and causeinstructions to keep the HSG II orders under abeyance tillthe completion of notional promotion exercise in LSGcadre as per the letter dt. 09.02.2009 and render justiceto the aggrieved officials.

Soliciting action as if fire on the top of the house


Ref: P/4-4/Welfare Dated - 10.08.2009Sub: - Provision of concessional Telephone facility toPostal Employees/pensioners

The Department of Telecom floated a schemeon 25.09.98 that all employees of the Ministry ofCommunication who had put in 20 years of service wereentitled to a concessional Telephone facility. The benefitof the scheme has not been extended to the postalemployees who had been recruited in the erstwhile P&Tdepartment under the Ministry of Communications.

Aggrieved over the discrimination, the postalemployees association has filed a case in Cuttack bench,Central Administrative Tribunal under OA No. 409/2002 inwhich, the Department has been directed to extendconcessional facilities to the applicants forthwith.

An another petition was also filed by Mr. Dr. M. S.Sachdeva in the Principal bench CAT, Delhi in OA No.2129/2004 which was held in favour of the applicant withthe orders to extend the facilities. The Department hasapproached Delhi High court against this order and theappeal was also dismissed. The extracts of the Highcourt decision is enclosed herewith for your readyreference.

Accordingly, the postal employees who wererecruited in the erstwhile P&T department and completed20 years of service are entitled for the concessionalTelephones as per the scheme.

It is requested to bestow your kind attention tocause appropriate orders from the Telecom for applicationof the said scheme to all the serving and retiredemployees of the postal department under the Ministry ofCommunications.

With profound regards,RETD P & T EMPLOYEES WITH 20 YRS SERVICE:ENTITLED TO CONCESSIONAL TELEPHONE

The Petitioner is aggrieved by an order dated4th March, 2005 passed by the Central AdministrativeTribunal, Principal Bench in OA No. 2129/2004.2) The Respondent is a senior citizen and is about 75years of age. He had worked with the Department of Postand Telecommunications for 28 years until his voluntaryretirement in 1988.3) In 1985 the Department of Posts andTelecommunications was bifurcated into the Departmentof Posts and the Telecommunications. The Respondentwas posted in the Department of Posts and took voluntaryretirement from there in 1988.4) Under a scheme floated by the Petitioner on 25thSeptember, 1998 all employees of the Ministry ofCommunications who had put in 20 years of service wereentitled to a concessional telephone facility. According tothe Respondent, he has put in at least 25 years of servicein the Department of Telecommunications, and, therefore,

CONCESSION TELEPHONE FACILITIES TO POSTAL EMPLOYEES.(CHQ addressed to Thiru A. Raja, Hon'ble Minister of Communications & IT)

he is entitled to the benefit of the scheme dated 25thSeptember, 1998.5) What the scheme entails in so far as we are concernedis that the Respondent would be entitled to a rent freetelephone and 620 free calls every two months.6) Since the Respondent was denied this facility, heapproached the Central Administrative Tribunal by fillingan original application under Section 19 of theAdministrative Tribunals Act,1985. The Tribunal allowedthe application and directed the Petitioner to give him thefacility prayed for with effect from February, 2000. Feelingaggrieved, the Petitioner is now before us.7) The contention of learned counsel for the Petitioner isthat the Respondent had not worked for 20 years in theMinistry of Communications. We have been informed thatthis Ministry actually came into existence only in 1985and if the contention of learned counsel is accepted, thescheme dated 25th September, 1998 would not beapplicable to a single employee of the Ministry ofCommunications till 2005 if it is given a literal interpretationas sought to be contended by learned counsel for thepetitioner.8) Consequently, a liberal thought and reasonableconstruction has to be given to the scheme. To achievethis objective, an employee of the Department ofTelecommunications must be allow to carry forward hisservices to the Ministry of Communications so as to beeligible to the benefits of the scheme dated 25thSeptember, 1998. If this meaningful interpretation is given,clearly the Respondent would satisfy the terms of thescheme in as much as he had put in at least 25 years ofservice with the Department of Telecommunications.9) Under the circumstances, we do not think that there isany error committed by the Tribunal is giving a meaningfuland liberal interpretation to the scheme dated 25thSeptember, 2008.10) We do not find any merit in the writ petition.

The petition is accordingly dismissed.(UOI and Ors vs Dr. M. S. Sachdeva - Delhi HC)

REPLY FROM TELECOM MINISTRY TO CHQ

No.11-12/2009-PHP-I Dated : 09-09-2009Sub.: Grant of concessional telephone facility to Retd.P&T Employees.

Undersigned is directed to refer to your letterNo. P/4-4/Welfare dated 10.08.2009 on the above subjectand to state that the decision of the Hon'ble High Court,Delhi has been implemented in the case of individualpetitioner.2. The impact of the decisions of Hon'ble HighCourts of Delhi and Cuttack is under examination andas a consequence, if any change in policy of RE-DOTcategory takes place in future, the same will beimplemented thereafter.


(1) In ordinate delay in settlement of personalclaims like TA, OTA, Medical etc for want of funds since2003-04.

Please refer this union letter No. P/4-1/Funds.Dt. 26.06.08.

The issue of allotting adequate funds to wipeout the pending personal claims of the officials like TA,OTA, Medical etc. have been discussed in the past severaltimes and it is repeatedly replied that required funds areavailable to dispose the claims.

As per the information's collected from the circles underRTI about the pendency of bills, it is observed that in allcircles the bills are pending undisbursed since 2003-04.

Unless a special sanction is sought fromFinance Ministry to wipe out all the pending bills as if hadin the past, the pendency will be manifold further.

It is requested to arrange special sanction of funds towipe out all the pending bills at the earliest.

(2) Filling up of Residual Vacancies

Despite clear orders to fill up the residualvacancies vide Department letter no. 60-5/2007-SPB-I dt.15.05.07, this has not been implemented in many circleslike Gujarat, Jharkhand, Rajasthan, Orissa, MadhyaPradesh, Punjab, Haryana, West Bengal etc. 858 Postsare still kept unfilled up in Tamilnadu Circle. In MaharastraCircle also, this has not been filled up due to some threatof a political party. In short, all the circles are seekingClarifications or approval form the Directorate resultingin unwarranted delay in filling up such vacant posts.

Suitable action may please be taken toimplement the order in true spirit.

(3) Filling up the Posts of APM Accounts &Promotional avenue to Accounts line officials.

The APM Accounts Posts in LSG & HSG II havebeen filled up among the PO & RMS Accountants qualifiedofficials as per Selection Grade Recruitment Rules 1976.The PO & RMS Accountant's seniority list has been draftedas per the date of qualifying the Accountant's exam andthe same is considered for LSG Promotion underAccounts line. The statutory Recruitment rules of 1976and the Rules 276 & 277 of volume IV dealing theseissues remain unchanged.

(i) While clarifying the postings after theintroduction of FTP exam vide department letter No. 137/10/96-SPB II dt. 28.01.03, it was mentioned that theofficials promoted to LSG either on general line or FTPhaving Accounts Qualifications may be considered forAPM Accounts Post. This has created a bundle ofcontradictions and the separate line of promotion to LSGAPM Accounts has been disturbed and not carried outthereafter.

(ii) Now in many circles, against to the spirit of therecruitment Rules 1976 and also volume IV statutory rules,

Items of Agenda for Ensuing Periodical Meeting - Submitted on 31.08.2009 in

response to Dept. letter No. 2/5/2009/SR Dated 21.08.2009

unqualified officials have been posted as APM Accountsin HSG II cadre and thus defeated the very purpose ofexistence of such qualified posts.

(iii) The CAT Chennai in its OA No. 201/2006 in caseof Sri P. Ramadoss Vs. the Principle Chief PMG,Tamilnadu held the separate identity of APM Accountscadre and directed to conduct the DPC for Accounts linewithout any procrastination based on the RecruitmentRules dt. 13.09.76 and issue necessary promotion ordersto the eligible PO & RMS Accounts line officials within aperiod of four weeks.

(iv) The following may please be considered toovercome the present injustice caused to the cadre.

(i) The LSG recruitment Rules 1976 should berevived for filling up of APM Accounts.

(ii) The year of qualifying the PO & RMS Accountantexam should be the yardstick for promotion toLSG APM Accounts.

(iii) During the upgradation of 1622 HSG II Posts,many posts, of APM Accounts were upgraded toHSG II. Resultantly, there is a dearth of LSG APMAccounts Posts for promotion in feeder cadre.Hence it is requested to restore the LSG Positionfor APM Accounts to the extent of 50% of totalpost in Accounts cadre by upgrading the generalline posts to HSG II.

(iv) Keep 30% HSG II APM Accounts posts and thiscan be filled up with LSG officials possessingAccounts qualification.

(v) Reserve 20% of the total establishment in HSGI promotion for providing promotion to the PO &RMS qualified HSG II APM Accounts.

(v) If the above proposal is considered, the presentcrisis will be over and it may also be ensured by providingqualified hands to position the APM Accounts posts in allplaces which will improve the efficiency in the primeaccounting functions at the base levels.

MODIFICIATON IN ACPSecretary General, NFPE has written a letter to Com.Umraomal Purohit, Staff Side Secretary JCM NationalCouncil to take up the following required modificationsin the MACP Scheme.

(i) Grant of ACP for officials promoted underdepartmental examination. This should not be adjustedwith any MACP promotion since these are thepromotions which the officials secured after writingdepartmental examination for a new cadre.

(ii) Date of effect should be from 1.1.2001

(iii) Introduction of stepping up of pay.

(iv) Application of Bench mark up to Pay Band 2 to beremoved.

(v) Parity between modified ACP and regular promotion.

KRISHNA IYER OPPOSES BANK MERGER MOVEV.R. Krishna Iyer, former Supreme Court judge, has urgedUnion Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee to intervenein the issue of the merger of associate banks with theState Bank of India.

In a letter, he said the move was devoid of vision,especially because decentralisation was the essenceof the progress of a nation.

The progress and prosperity of a nationdepended on the happiness and well-being of thepeople, to which those in power were constitutionallyoath-bound. Likewise, the prosperity and progress of anorganisation depended on the well-being and happinessof its employees, apart from those benefiting from it.

The proposal to merge banks such as the StateBank of Travancore with the State Bank of India was muchagainst the interests of the employees of the associate

banks and their customers, he said. Any action by theauthorities should be for the advantage and prosperity ofthe organisation and to safeguard the national interest. Anexamination of the effects of the merger showed that it wouldlead to the closure of rural branches. The move wouldappear to aim to pool the capital and resources of thesubsidiary banks to meet the needs of global corporates.

Globalisation, privatisation and marketisationwould only help big business and the corporate sector.The smaller banks took care and catered to specificeconomic activity, such as agriculture, small-scaleindustries and self-employment. The merger wouldhamper economic activity, much to the displeasure anddiscontent of customers, he said, and urged the Ministerto allow the associate banks to maintain their identity.

PA POSTS SHOULD BE PROCESSED BEFORE 31.12.2009 AS PER EXISTING RECRUITMENT RULES


Post offices will soon offer services under thenew pension system as the department of posts is setto sign an agreement with the Pension Fund Regulatoryand Development Authority (PFRDA) in this regard.Initially, the services will be available only incomputerised post offices, an official in the ministry ofcommunications & IT said.

After the agreement, the postal department willact as an agency to enrol NPS customers, the officialsaid requesting anonymity. Technically known as 'pointsof presence' (PoPs), these agencies serve as contactand collection centres where pension contributions arecollected under the NPS scheme. There are 21 PoPsproviding NPS services including banks such as StateBank of India, Axis Bank, ICICI Bank, Oriental Bank ofUnion Bank of India.

The pension regulator is now convinced thatsome of the post offices have the IT infrastructure to

Earlier, the watchdog had expressed doubt dueto the poor IT penetration in the postal system, post officesmay not be able to provide NPS services. "But around3,000 post offices were found to be fully equipped," theofficial said. The official didn't specify the time frame withinwhich the agreement will be signed. The PFRDA openedup the new pension system to all citizens from May 1,2009. It is compulsory for all government employeesjoining service on or after January 1, 2004.

Under the new pension system, instead of

agents selling the scheme, the regulator has banks andother financial institutions as points of presence, where anaccount could be opened. As a result, the marketing cost ofthe pension plan remains low and the fees applicable aredisclosed upfront. The scheme offers a social security netfor workers in the unorganised sector too.

The regulator is now in talks with the governmentto bear the transaction cost for the unorganised sector,which would make the scheme even more attractive.

The department of posts has offered its helpto the Unique Identification Database Authority of India(UIDAI) in verifying the data of citizens that will helpthe authority issue unique identification numbers toIndian residents.

The department has a huge database of over20 crore savings bank account holders all over thecountry. This would come in handy when UIDAI startsthe citizen verification process, especially in ruralareas.

"The department of posts is interested inbeing the 'enroller' for the UIDAI. Enrollers wouldauthenticate data provided by registrars as per UIDnorms," a government official said.

"The discussions are at a preliminary stage.More talks are likely to be held before the plans areimplemented," the official said requesting anonymity.

The postal department has shown interestin acting as a platform to 'authenticate' the citizens towhom the unique number will be given. It has already

DEPT OF POSTS OFFERS TO VERIFY CITIZENS' DATA FOR UNIQUE ID PROJECT

made a presentation in this regard before UIDAIchairman Nandan Nilekani.

As per the initial rollout plan for providingunique identification numbers, the UIDAI would firstappoint registrars who would take up the herculeantask of collecting data of all Indian residents. Registrarscould be state governments, the Election Commissionof India, rat ion shops, oi l companies, telecomcompanies or even post offices.

"The department of posts can play animportant role in the UID project as we have a strongnetwork, especially in rural areas," the official said.

The UID project plans to create uniqueidentification numbers for all Indians by 2011. Theidentification number will primarily help to 'authenticate'an individual in the country and will be issued to Indianresidents on a voluntary basis.

The unique identi f ication numbers wil leliminate the need for existing identification cards suchas electoral card, ration card, driving licence, passportand PAN card as the cards issued under the schemewill carry all the required details, including the biometricdetails of all Indian citizens.

The arguments advanced by the representationists in support oftheir request are that the dependent disabled siblings (i.e. bothers/sisters) are left to fend for themselves after the death of theGovernment servant/pensioner on whom they were fullydependent before his/her death.

(Contd. from page 5)


India's department of posts (DoP) is set tospend up to $1 billion on its IT-led business revampover the next five years with top tech firms like IBM, TCS,Infosys and Wipro pursuing several outsourcingcontracts for helping the postal department automateand integrate its business processes with a standardsoftware solution DoP, which has already short-listedAccenture, Ernst &Young, KPMG, McKinsey and PwC aspotential consultants for this project, will be announcingone of them as partner for selecting a tech vendor andalso defining the scope of 3-5 year IT revamp by end ofthis month. DoP will select different vendors for systemintegration, software , data centres and networkmanagement.

"We plan to select a consultant by the monthend, flesh out budget by March next year, and start rollingout the project from April," said a senior DoP official onconditions of anonymity. "Initially we were only looking atan IT revamp, but the scope is much bigger now withbusiness process reengineering becoming a significantpart of this entire exercise," he added. The departmentwas allocated around Rs 2,000 crore under the eleventhplan by India's Planning Commission recently for differentIT investments.

DoP's IT revamp is a classic example of old,legacy systems and software applications being unableto cope with rising operational pressures and newerbusiness models. The department has been usingsoftware applications such as Meghdoot developed in-house for over a decade. With the government seekingto evolve DoP as a well diversified services provideroffering postal, insurance and financial solutions acrossremote parts of the country, there is a need to upgradethe systems.

Our Meghdoot software for instance, is not yetupgraded to work in a wide area network (WAN)environment. We will need to take a call about whetherwe should upgrade the existing software or go for a newpackaged application from a company such as SAP,Oracle," the DoP official added. The department will alsoneed a new corebanking software solution. "We currently

POSTAL DEPT LINES UP $1 BN TO AUTOMATE BUSINESS PROCESSESAccenture, Ernst & Young, KPMG, Mckinsey & PwC Among Shortlisted Firms In Fray For Project Consultant

use Sanchay Post developed internally, but it has livedits life."

A consultant, to be finalised by this month end,will help India Post decide whether to continue upgradingits in-house developed software applications such asMeghdoot or switch to more sophisticated softwareplatform from SAP or Oracle. An enterprise resourceplanning (ERP) software from SAP or Oracle will helpthe department standardise its different businessprocesses without having to dedicate internal resourcesfor deployment and maintenance.

Apart from several outsourcing, systemintegration projects, the department will also need toinvest in procuring computer hardware systems formodernisation of around 1.55 lakh post offices acrossthe country. "The government is now looking at postoffices as a vehicle for distribution for different services,and therefore, it's critical for us to upgrade theinfrastructure," said another government official involvedwith India's National Rural Employment Guarantee Act(NREGA).

At a time when India's government departmentsand state-owned enterprises such as BSNL, ONGC andother ministries are seeking to become more efficientwith the help of technology , vendors such as IBM, TCS,Infosys and Wipro are seeing newer opportunitiesemerge even during a global slowdown in softwarespending.

According to the experts tracking this sector,Indian government organisations such as India Post,Indian Railways and other departments including LICwill spend around $2 billion on information technologythis year, as the government's share of total IT spend inIndia is set to cross 10% over next two years.

"The government has changed its buyingstrategy-now the tenders are talking about revenuedrivenmodels," said HR Binod, head of Infosys' India businessunit, which was established in November 2007. "We arealso approaching these opportunities with a businesssolution and not merely a technology solution," he added.
