Directorate, SR Division No. 08/07/2014-SR dated 5th
May,2015.
Madam.
Kindly
refer to the discussion held in the meeting on 30.04.2015 on PJCA Strike
Charter of Demands. There is no remarkable progress on most of the items.
Though all items are important but two items are most important
which are mentioned below and the reply given by the Department is also
reproduced below:
Item -2 Inclusion of Gramin Dak Sevaks (GDS) in the
terms of reference of 7th
Central Pay Commission. Grant of civil
servant status to GDS and grant of
all benefits of departmental employees on pro-rata basis without any discrimination.
Reply: It was decided that the
proposal will be strongly recommended and referred
to D/o Expenditure for reconsideration. (Action
DDG (Estt)
Item. 9: Implement cadre
restructuring in postal, RMS, MMS and Postal Accounts
as per the proposal signed with the JCM (DC) staff side
Reply: The proposal for cadre restructuring of Gr.
‘C’ employees, will be sent to DOP&T
next week. The proposal for MMS and DAP
will be sent to DOP&T within
a period of two months. (Action DDG (Estt) / DDG(PAF)
But
it is very sorry to say that no progress is reported on the both items. It is
learnt that 7th CPC is now preparing report and may submit its
report to Finance Ministry upto 31s
August, 2015 and its report will be implemented w.e.f. 01.01.2016. But there
is no response about inclusion of GDS in 7th CPC.
The poor GDS employees are eagerly waiting the favourable decision but it
appears that they are being deprived from their basic rights and natural justice.
Similar is the position of Cadre Restructuring. After lapse
of three months period there is no response from Department. During the meeting
it was assured that cadre restructuring will be implemented before 31st
July 2015 though later it was not mentioned in the minutes. If the Cadre
restructuring proposal is not implemented before 7th CPC report, the
entire process will go in vain and Postal employees will be deprived from their
benefit.
It is therefore requested to kindly bestow your personal
attention on the matters and cause early redressal of the grievances to maintain
co-ordial relations between staff and administration failing which the unions
will be compelled to launch agitational programmes.
Hoping for a
positive response,
Yours Sincerely
