Comrades,

            Staff Side PJCA meeting was held at NFPE Office, North Avenue Post Office Building, New Delhi-110 001 on 04th February,2015 under the Presidentship of Com. D. Theagarajan Secretary General FNPO. All General Secretaries of NFPE, FNPO and GDS Unions participated in the meeting.

            The following decisions were taken in the meeting:

1.         Formation of PJCA at all Circles:

            Reviewed the position of formation of Circle JCA. PJCA has been formed in some Circles and in some circles it is functioning well. The Circles in which the PJCA is not functioning, it should be formed by the respective CHQ leaders..All Circle Secretaries should also take it seriously and inform the CHQ and Federation after formation. This work should be completed before 15th February, 2015.

2.         Strategy was decided for the meeting to be held with Secretary Post at Dak Bhawan , New Delhi on 05.02.2015.


MEETING OF PJCA  LEADERS WITH SECRETARY POST

            Meeting of PJCA leaders was held with Secretary (Post) and other higher officers of Postal Board. Though Secretary (Post) gave positive assurances on most of the issues and also assured that Deptt. Is not going to implement recommendations of Task Force Committee report and there will be no corporatization and Privatization of Deptt. and before implementation of any new scheme it will be discussed with unions and after getting the consent of unions it will be implemented. Secretary (Post) also agreed to refer again the case of GDS wage revision and other service conditions to Government of India for inclusion in the 7thCPC. She also assured to finalize the Cadre restructuring proposal of all Cadres before 30th April-2015.

            Though Secretary (Post) has given many of the positive assurances but keeping in mind the style of functioning and political and economic policies of Central Government we cannot believe as they are implementing all Globlization   and privatization policies very intensively in all the sectors and mostly employees of all sectors are agitated and moving on path of agitation.

            Therefore, we appeal to all Leaders and entire rank and file to get ready for struggle and observe the following programme of action in a phased manner on 40 points Charter of Demand:

Letter to authorities regarding unjustified engagements of postal staff in Administrative offices by creating acute and unmanageable shortage in operative oofices.

Subject: Fw: Regarding over staffing in the Amreli D.O.
To,
PMG
Rajkot
Resp.Sir,
I herewith forward mail received from Amreli unit which is self explanatory. Divisional heads are used to take number of staff on deputation on one or other plea from operative offices. In operative offices direct public work and other time bound work has to be completed and that too facing comparatively more shortage of staff. If staff of operative offices bear extra and huge burden, staff of administrative offices should also similarly share extra burden of any additional work by appropriate management in the office itself. It is not justice to ignore sufferings of operative offices for work of administrative nature. Administrative offices are headed by decision making authorities and therefore such unjust practices prevail at the cost of operative staff where officials of Gr.C cadre are heads of office and they have so many fear and limitations.
It is observed that at Junagadh division also three PAs are attached. In other divisions also there may be similar situation prevailing.
Even in such exigent situation staff of divisions are sent on deputation to RO, CO, Civil wing etc. I request to make a review by listing staff of divisions deputed outside and shortage faced in their division.
I have also worked in divisional office for long period and I know that work of G branch, A branch, CR branch, Fraud & Building branch etc can be easily combined or deferred on priority basis. I want to mention that work of less important nature has to be kept pending in operative offices also. Hence, the similar adjustments and management has to be adhered to in the administrative offices too.
It is therefore requested to issue all SPOs in the region to terminate all deputations in excess to sanctioned staff strength.
It is requested to take cognizance of this letter (mail). Pl also acknowledge and send a line in reply regarding action taken.
With regards
Yours Sincerely
Rashmin Purohit

Respected Comrade,
 Â Ã‚ Ã‚ Ã‚ Ã‚  Amreli H.O. at present facing acute shortage of staff, SB branch as well as account branch is running with shortage of staff since long and the work of short hands is being ordered to be managed with the available staff who are already overburden and working under pressure of huge workload.Such position not only impacts on quality of work but also on the health of staff facing shortage and overburden. On the contrary, three extra hands in addition to sanctioned strength have been attached at Amreli D.O. The action of the divisional head is against the instructions issued by the Directorate. 
       Â  It is therefore requested kindly to take up the matter at appropriate level to set right the issue of shortage of staff in Amreli H.O. and over staffing in Amreli D.O.

Subject: Request for early process for in-house training and posting of new recruits.
Hon.Sir,
Namaskar. It has been brought to our knowledge that there are so many new recruited candidates whose medical fitness, all verifications and even PVRs are received are waiting for further process since long. For PVRs divisional heads are not required to wait. Two character certificates of Gazetted officers can be obtained and PVRs may come later on. In few divisions like RMS Rajkot, Bharuch etc all procedures are satisfactorily completed in respect of most of the candidates but Divisional heads are telling that after complete verification of almost all candidates, in-house training will be given and then appointment can be given in one lot. I think if in case of one or two candidates some verification is pending, all should not be kept waiting. Also for PVR adhoc appointment should not be delayed.
It is requested to issue instructions to all Divisional heads so that uniform approach may be adopted and all may not act differently according to personal understanding.
Soliciting early response and a line in reply,
With regards,
Yours Sincerely

EDITORIAL POSTAL CRUSADER JANUARY 2015

Task Force Committee Report
Lay Out Plan of Privatization of Department of Posts

A high power committee named as Task Force on leveraging the Post Office Network headed by Shri T.S.R. Subramaian Ex. Cabinet Secretary consisting  8 other members having expertise in other  fields was appointed by Prime Minister of India. The main object of this Committee was stated to study and make recommendations regarding leveraging the Post Office  Network in India and bring it in  line with changing market trends and the emerging competition with focus on mail and parcel services particularly in rural areas upgrading of infrastructure  and technology incorporating the best global practices available as also by introducing new services and participation  of multiple players and to make  the Department of Post financially viable.

When Task Force Committee was appointed many of our Comrades were presuming that Good Days (Achchhe Din) of Postal Department are likely to come. But it was  a question  before us  that when Govt. is attacking all sectors like Railways, Defence, Public Sector Banks, LIC & BSNL etc. Why alone Postal Department will get good days only.

NFPE leaders also met with Chairman of  Task Force  and during the  course of discussion he told that Postal Department  will be  benefited by the recommendations of Task Force and more jobs will be generated and there will be no adverse  impact on staff.

But when the report was published it was clearly an indication of govt’s hidden agenda to corporatize the main functions of Department of Posts. Accordingly to the report the Deptt. Of Posts will be divided in to six units. i.e. (i) Banking and financial services (ii) Insurance  (PLI/RPLI), (iii) Distribution of third party products (Services on behalf of private  parties on payment basis), (iv) Management of Govt. services (v) Parcel & Packets and (vi) communication delivery

First five units are designated as strategi Business units and sixth unit will deliver mails at subsidized rates. Under Deptt. Of Posts a holding company “India Post (Financial and other services) Corporation ” will be formed The Corporation will consist Board of Members and one Chairman from the Board members.

All the five separate subsidiary companies will also have separate boards. In the course of time Govt.  may disinvest of its part of  holding  and new corporation will raise fund from share market and thereafter  will  also be listed in share market in future.

It is stated in the report that five subsidiary Companies will make profit and contribute to meet the loss of sixth unit.

The Task Force Committee has also recommended for amendment of Indian Post Office Act 1898 and to bring another Postal Act. “India Post (Financial and other services)” Corporation Act for reorganization of Deptt. of Posts by creating new Corporate Structure.

Based on the above facts it is Crystal clear that the recommendations of Task Force are a layout plan for corporatization and privatization thereafter just like happened with Telecom Deptt.

So this is the first and foremost duty of every Postal employee to oppose this dangerous and retrograde move of Govt. of India to Corporatize and privatize the Deptt. Of Post and defeat it. Entire employees should come under one banner of JCA and oppose unitedly this Task Force Committee report. Our slogan should be “Save Postal and save India Post”.

 If we allow NDA Govt. to corporatize the functions of the Deptt. Of Posts, it will be the beginning of end of Govt. run Postal Services in India. The decision of Postal Joint Council of Action (NFPE, FNPO, AIPEU GDS (NFPE) and NUGDS) to go on indefinite strike from 6th May 2015 should also be strengthened further by adding the demand in Charter of Demands. “No Corporatization in Postal Services”.

So we should be ready for a do and die battle.
