Sub:-         Wearing of Black Badges and Lunch Hour Demonstration from 29.10.2018 to 03.11.2018 in protest against the incident happened in Allhabad Kutchery HO.

Dear Comrades,

You might have watched the video clippings flashed in electronics media and photographs/videos posted in our CHQ Website and reproduced in our Circle Website also showing Allahabad HO getting ransacked by agitated public over non-functioning of CSI/SAP for many days. As aware, the haphazard digitization programmes, MoUs signed with various service providers without ensuring smooth functioning of Post Offices, sluggish connectivity, poor peripherals, inadequate infrastructure and above all the careless attitude of both the Govt. and the administration are the main reasons for customers' anguish and dissatisfaction inviting such unfortunate incident compelling the staff members dealing with the customers at post offices to suffer for no fault of their own.

Contradictorily, even after paying hefty sums, the incapacity of the gutless administration to extract the job done by the service providers is the sole reason for this pitiable situation. When will the situation improve and whether the DOP be able to recapture the hard earned goodwill and support of the public are the million dollar question now!

It is needless to state that the pathetic situation is the same throughout the country. Starting from Divisional Union to CHQ / NFPE, though we have been writing, negotiating, agitating continuously to restore normalcy, all our efforts are falling to the deaf ears of the administration / Govt.

But as the responsible employees of the Department and aware citizen of India, we have to continue our struggle programmes and register our protest for the sake of truth and justice.  

In this regard, please find attached here with the messages from our CHQ and Postal JCA (NFPE & FNPO) which are self-explanatory. 

We expect that each one of us should take the issue as seriously as it can be and start wearing Black Badges during the entire duty period and organize lunch hour demonstration in front of all Head Offices, GPOs, Divisional / Regional / Circle Offices from 29.10.2018 to 03.11.2018 as a mark of solidarity to the Comrades of UP Circle on one hand and demanding restoration of normalcy in CSI at the earliest on the other.

 Expecting cooperation from all of you.

With struggle greetings.

Comradely yours,

( BRUHASPATI  SAMAL)

Circle Secretary
