BRIEF NOTE OVER VARIOUS ITEMS OF AGENDA
ITEM NO. 1 : MACPs
ANOMOLIES OF VARIOUS CADRES OF PAO
(i)
The case of LDC inducted through LDCE Exam. – There are several evidence that this
quota employee has to be treated as direct recruit for ACP / MACPs purposes.
But the Circles are not considering this aspect in due sprit and incorrect
grant of ACP/ MACPs is being done.
(a) As evidence to the above case
clarification no. 8 of ACP clarifications dated 10-2-2000 issued by DOP&T
is enclosed. Since RR of LDC contains direct recruitment as well as well LDCE
quota therefore LDCE categories may be treated as direct recruit for the
purpose of ACP/MACP.
(b) As an evidence to the above case
clarificatory order issued by Railway Deptt. in consultation with of DOP& T is enclosed for your ready
reference.
(c ) As an evidence to the above case column No. 8 of schedule of RR 2001 of LDC cadre
which depicts that educational qualification of DR and LDCE candidates is same
is also to be taken into account. Similarly column No. 11 provide four different categories of employees to be
inducted in LDC cadre in which 5% quota
through LDCE employees are separate from Departmental Exam. Employee. Similarly Column No. 12 which decide
promotional category of employees in LDC cadre do not contain LDCE quota
employee. These facts of RR 2001 of LDC explain that LDCE employee is direct
recruits for the purpose of ACP/MACP.
(ii)
The case of ACP/MACP of erstwhile Gr. D now
MTS. – The matter has
arisen due to non consideration of clarification no. 3 issued by PA wing no.
3(4)/09/PA Admn.I/666 to 686 dated 18-3-2010 while considering / deciding the existing hierarchy of Gr. D on 1-1-2006.
The fact that Gr. D and sorter are placed in same grade of Rs. 1800 by 6th
CPC the promotion of Gr. D to sorter cadre may be ignored for MACP purpose has
never considered by Circles. Due to these reasons the Circles remained
indifferent to new hierarchy existing on 1-1-2006 and has granted
incorrect ACP grade pay.
It is pertinent to
mention here that as per para 3 of DOP&T clarification (Enclosed) dated
9-9-2010 the benefits of ACP between 1-1-2006 and 30-9-2008 was to be granted
in new hierarchy existing after 6th CPC has been ignored by
Circles.
The Association was
expecting from the PA Wing that it will issue new hierarchy of these Gr. D
after issuance of clarification dated 18-3-2010 but this did not happen.
Somehow after receiving
various representation of employees, the
U.P.Circle has taken lead and sent a proposals vide letter No. Admn.I S/P-II
/MISC/ representation /BPEF/D-391 dated 25-5-2012 and DO letter dated 23-11-2012 deciding the hierarchy on
the basis of various orders of ACP/MACP and submitted the case of 33 employees
for your confirmation . In on each occasion the PA Wing vide instruction F.No.
15(1)/10/PA Admn-I /172-173 dated 25-7-2012 and dated 7-12-2012 has asked them
to take decisions on the basis of existing available hierarchy as proposed by
them and other instructions issued on time to time in the matter.
The contention of this
association is that if the U.P. Circle
is being guided / allowed to grant ACP-I grade pay of LDC and ACP-II grade pay
of JA to Gr. D now MTS then why not other circles be issued clarification to
grant ACP/MACPs to these low paid employees on the line of U.P. Circle by clearly
mentioning the existing hierarchy of these employees in new pay structure.
ITEM
NO. 2: RESTRUCTURING OF VARIOUS CADRE OF POSTAL ACCOUNTS IN LIGHT OF PARA
6.1.17 OF RECOMMENDATION OF 6TH CPC.
(i)
Carving
out 10% quota from D.R. quota in JA cadre and filling it with LDCE as
recommended in above para of 6th CPC.
(ii)
Changing
5% quota through LDCE for recruitment in LDC cadre to 10% as recommended in
above para of 6th CPC.
(iii)
Introducing
10% LDCE quota in the RR of AAO in the light of above para of 6th
CPC recommendation in view of proposal of PA Wing for induction of direct
recruitment in this cadre.
(iv)
The
grade pay of 4600 to SA of PAO as per
DOP&T letter dated 13-11-2009 and may be granted by processing / examining
in the line through which Assistant of CSS
existing in pay scale 5500 -9000 as on 1-1-2006
were granted grade of Rs. 4600 .
This anomaly has arisen in PAO after issuances
of orders for grant of grade pay of 4600 to Assistant on 16-11-2009 on the
basis of instructions contained in DOP&T letter dated 13-11-2009. (Copy
enclosed).
On going through the text of letter dated
16-11-2009 it reveals that following factors were taken into accounts while
deciding the case. They are
(a) Representation of various unions.
(b) Para 2.2.21 (v) Recommendations of 6th
Pay Commission over which DOP&T letter dated 13-11-2009 has been issued.
(c) Due consideration to the para
3.1.3 of 6th CPC recommendation regarding parity between field and office staff up to level of
Assistant of CCS has been taken into account.
(Copy enclosed).
(d) Despite the fact that Assistants of
CSS were on pay scale of 5500 -9000 as on 1-1-2006, they were granted the grade
pay of Rs. 4600 meant for the posts existing in the pay scale 6500-10500 on the
basis of 6th CPC recommendations for merger of pay scale for
5500-9000 and 6500-10500. It is due to
this merger of pay scale they were deemed to have been placed in pay scale of
Rs. 6500-10500 as on 1-1-2006. (Copy of pay fixation orders is enclosed).
In this regard contention
of the Association is that the PA Wing remained in different to the excepted
activities after issuance of order dated 13-11-2009 and did not become active
enough to examine the case of SAs in light of various recommendations of 6th
CPC which can be helpful in grant of correct grade pay of Rs. 4600 on 1-1-2006.
Therefore we request that the case on
following grounds may be examined.
(i) As recommended in Para 7.56.8 of 6th
CPC the merger of pay scale of Rs. 5500-9000 and 6500-10500 in IA and AD may be
taken into account and the SAs may be deemed to be placed in 6500-10500 on
1-1-2006 as was decided by DOP&T regarding pay fixation in case of Assistant of CCS .
(ii)
The
issue of parity mentioned in para 7.56.8
may be decided as par placement of SAs and Assistant of CCS on similar
pay scale of 6500-10500 as on 1-1-2006 and not on the basis of certain merit .
In case of granting parity to Assistant of CCS similar principal were
applied.
ITEM
NO.3: CLEAR CUT VIEWS REGARDING SORTAGE OF STAFF AND TENURE TRANSFER / POSTING
OVER SENSETIVE SEATS IN PAO
(i)
No
satisfactory effort is being made in Circles over direct recruitment of LDC and
JA cadre from SSC. All recruitments may be ensured within 3 months.
(ii)
Frequent
and large amount of depletion in JA/ SA cadre is being made due to adoc promotion in AAO cadre but
the very few cases Rule 38 transfer and deputation are not being considered in
Circles and Directorate.
We demand that orders regarding clearance
of all application of Rule 38 transfer and deputation may be issued.
(iii)
Tenure
transfer / Posting over sensitive post in PAO up to AAO level may be made
clearer. All seats in PAO up to AAO level may be identified and orders
regarding these may be implemented strictly.
The provision of choice
posting in AAO cadre two years before retirement is not being implement
strictly despite clear cut tenure transfer /posting order.
Similarly Transfer/Posting
of Union office bearers over sensitive and other post may be made clear.
