Ref.- Directorate’s
letter No. 25-04/2012-PE-I (Vol.-II), dated 10.11.2017
Respected Comrade,
This
has a reference to our telephonic discussion to meet the Secretary (Posts) here
in Bhubaneswar during his visit to attend the All India Postal Cultural Meet.
Accordingly,
we met the Secretary (Posts) on 23.08.2017 and discussed the lapses in
implementing the revised order on cadre restructuring in Odisha Circle
submitting a memorandum the copy of which is reproduced below.
The discussion was made in the presence of the
Chief PMG, both the PMsG, DPS(HQ) and AD(Staff) and the Chief PMG admitted that
there is a confusion in maintaining the uniformity and in implementing the
order w.e.f. 27.05.2016 for which C O, Bhubaneswar would refer the case to the
Directorate.
The
Secretary (Posts) has assured us to look into the case.
Therefore,
we would like to request you to see our observations represented in the
memorandum to the Secretary (Posts) reproduced below and appraise the Directorate
accordingly for correct implementation of the revised order dated 10.11.2017 on
Cadre Restructuring.
Expecting
your kind response.
With regards.
Yours comradely,

Secretary,
Department of Posts

Sub: Implementation
of Revised Order on Cadre Restructuring Proposal for Group-C Postal Employees
in Odisha Circle
Ref.- Directorate’s
letter No. 25-04/2012-PE-I (Vol.-II), dated 10.11.2017
Respected Sir,
We are very much happy to inform you that basing
on the analysis made by NFPE, Odisha, our CHQ took up the matter to the
Directorate which in turn constituted the Cadre Restructuring Committee and the
said Committee met with the Staff Side on 02.08.2017. Accordingly a revised
order on Cadre Restructuring of Group-C Postal employees was released vide
Directorate’s letter No. 25-04/2012-PE-I (Vol.-II), dated
10.11.2017 and Para 4.5 of the said letter specifies for implementation of
Cadre Restructuring proposal of Group-C employees of the Department of Posts
with effect from 27.05.2016. As per the existing instructions under Para 4.5 of
the above order, it will be applicable to all including those who were in
service but now retired. Accordingly, we had requested the Chief PMG, Odisha
Circle to consider afresh the case of all those officials even who have
declined earlier since the order is now effective from 27.05.2016.
But
while implementing the above revised order of the Directorate, C O, Bhubaneswar
vide its Memo No.
ST / 26 – 6 (1) / 2017-18 (Postal), dated 21.12.2017 has ignored those
officials who had declined after 31st March, 2017 and included those
who had declined before 31st March, 2017 mentioning the date of
effect which is after expiry of one year
from the date of declination.
This Union is of the opinion
that this should not be treated as a normal DPC since this is a special order
issued for the first time in Postal history and the Directorate has
categorically mentioned to implement the order with effect from 27.05.2016 (the date of original order issued initially for implementation of Cadre
Restructuring Proposal) to maintain uniformity. Thus, uniformity has not been maintained
in ignoring the officials who had declined after 31st March, 2017.
Secondly,
while the
posting orders for the approved LSG officials were issued by Head Quarters Region, Bhubaneswar vide C O Memo No. ST / 26 –
6 (1) / 2017 (Postal), dated 22.03.2017,
Berhampur Region released the same
vide its Memo No. ST / 12 – LSG / 2017, dated 25.03.2017 and R O Sambalpur
vide Memo No. ST / RO / 150 – 9 / 2017, Dated 25.03.2017 which was posted on 27.03.2017. In each case all the
officials were allowed one month time for joining or otherwise for which some
officials could take a decision to decline before 31st March and
some after 31st March, 2017.
Instances have come to the notice of this Union
that officials under Head Quarters Region who were fortunate to be posted in
the parent offices where they were working earlier immediately exchanged their
Charge Reports without waiting for the covering memo of the concerned
Divisional Heads. This facility could not be availed by the officials of other
regions due to delayed release of memos as cited above which has seriously
affected the seniority of the officials joining late.
When the posting orders have
been issued during the last week of March, 2017 that too on separate dates by
each Region with one month period to join or otherwise, it is evident that decision
will definitely go beyond 31st March for no fault of the approved
officials.
Thus, no uniformity has also been maintained by
all the three regions of Odisha Circle during initial implementation of the
Cadre Restructuring proposal.
Therefore, under the circumstances, we would
like to sincerely request you to kindly arrange to re-examine the spirit of the
contents of the above Directorate’s revised order stating to implement the
Cadre Restructuring proposal with effect from 27.05.2016 to
maintain uniformity and issue suitable instructions to Odisha Circle for
considering all cases including those who have declined both on or after 31st
March, 2017 afresh which can only help to maintain uniformity.
With
deep regards.
Yours
faithfully,
(B SAMAL)
Circle Secretary
