In the meeting several issues were
discussed in three sessions of four hours each. In the reporting session every
General secretaries have reported about the membership drive, election
programme of Circles and schedules of
their due All India Conference. In the
Circles like Punjab , U.P. Karnataka, Kerala , Rajasthan and Jharkhand, the Circle conferences of BP-III, BP-IV and GDS were convened
successfully. The M.P. & Orissa Circle has convened R-III and R-IV Circle
conferences . The Haryana & Bihar Circle have convened BPAOEA Circle Conference.
The All India Conference of Administrative union and GDS Union was convened
successfully. It can be concluded that
almost all circles have updated their conferences and now it is the turn of Circles
to convene their Divisional Conference in time.
Regarding
opening of New Divisions, it has been informed that two options are available. First
one is to make authorized office bearer in that Division to submit the forms in
the month of April or during re-verification process. The 2nd one is to form
adhoc body and then convene regular election within three month of time. As
regard to Divisions in which we could not form a Divisional Secretary or authorized
office bearer, the General Secretary or Circle Secretary can submit the attested membership forms to
the Divisional heads/ Regional Heads/ Circle Heads.
It has also been reported that the
All India Conference of BP-III, BR-III & BR-IV will be completed upto
December, 2013. Positively.
The Secretary General has reported
all the events, the “PRAVASH” and the conferences attended by him during the
period October 2012 to June, 2013. A Strike notice was also served on 29-01-2013.
The department has issued advisory to postpone the programme and informed that informal
meeting will be arranged in March, 2013. The Strike was postpone on this
communication. In the meeting it has been decided to choose appropriate time to
give the notice for Dharna do not Pradarshan or Strike in the event of
Department not giving any informal meeting or look over the issues urgently.
The DDG (Estt.) has informed that the meeting will be arranged shortly in the
last week of the July.
I am
sorry to disclose that General Secretaries have reported about membership drive
in vague manner without any proof of it. This tradition has become a custom of
BPEF affiliated unions to act casually over the important and strategic issues.
For these reasons they took no cognizance of the decisions taken in such type
high level meetings. The decisions taken
at Hyderabad meeting, New Delhi Meetings have not been conveyed to lower office
bearers even through circulars. For these reasons the pity financial and Organisational
situation of BPEF arises. Reporting without any proof
and without any real action is deplorable on the ground that lot of
expenditure becomes waisted. The Bharatiya unions become element of mockery at
the eyes of others who read these circulars.
The
Treasurer report placed in the meeting very well depicts the story of reluctance
and irresponsibility from the part of unions as they are getting
membership subscription by way of salary deduction . It is sorry to
state that we are not able to pay even
petty Honoruium and licnece fee of about
two thousand per month. Water &
Elect bill of Rs. 3500/- per month and News paper telephone bill of about two
thousand per month . Having no option left to the Federation it has decided to
impose levy over the unions as below so that expenditure to be incurred up to
October, 2013 may be met.
GDS Union – 20000/-, BP-III, 20000/- , BP-IV,
8000/-, BR-III, 4000/- BR-IV, 3000/- BPAOEA Rs. 4000/- BP Civil Wing Rs. 1000/-
Administrative Union 1000/- of Rs. 60000/-This levy must be paid before Federal
Council so that the Federation could not feel pity in meeting out expenses.
Matter of Election dispute in Kerala
Circle BP-IV union has been reported by convenor Kerala circle Shri C.M. Pillai
the same has been handed over to General Secretary, BP-IV for resolving the
issue amicably. It has been advised that in all matters of election dispute, the decision of BPEF will be final.
In the last Shri B.K. Rai, Vice
present Central BMS and Prabhari Industrial units have taken note of all the discussions
and told that the unions are not hospitals were every ill comes and later on
goes away when treatment is over. It is a family and a developed system having well defined constitution and
ethics to follow exists. He advised that as per the BMS directions , The
Federation , the All India Union and the Circle unions must have core group to decide the
issues . For the All India Unions President , Secretary, Org. Secretary ,
Secretary General & Treasurer will form the core group. Similarly for Circle
unions President , Secretary, Treasurer, AGS of All India Union and convener of
BPEF will form the core group. At the Federation level President/ Working President, Secretary General, Treasurer, Org. Secretary,
and Prabhari industrial unit of BMS will form the Core group. This core group
must report to the Higher level for the activities about the Organizational and
Agitational programmes. In the case of laxity from the part of All India
Unions, Circle Unions are Divisional Unions the action will be taken by the
core groups accordingly. It is to be taken in mind that as per the constitution
of unions the General Secretary of the unions is the Administrative Head of
that union. Similarly Secretary General is the administrative Head for all the
matter of affiliated unions. Similarly every unions are advised to give full
charge to the AGS of the union of the adjoining Circles to Circle in which he
resides, in All India conference itself
for the purpose of easily administering the membership / union activities and
election process.
Since
the Govt. is deducting the union subscription and remitting it to office bearers,
therefore, the financial irregularity is
not simple one but it is a financial fraud towards organisaiton which attrach disciplinary action against the faulty office
bearers.
If the core group of All India unions and its
CWC find it fit to amend its constitution so that the union subscription deducted
at Division/ Branches may be remitted to the CHQ directly by the Administration
then they are free to make such amendment in constitution. The General
Secretary, BP Civil Wing Shri Balram Pandey has given has consent to do so in his constitution.
As regarding Special Donation by unions / Federation,
Receipt Book must contain three least. One
should be handed over to the donor. Second one should be retained by the
collector and third one should be retained by the BPEF or All India Union as
the case may be.
He strongly
supported that if the BPEF is short of fund for carrying out its daily union activity then it must raise the
Special Fund with the help of Federation office bearers / CHQ office Bearers of
the union. This issue was supported by Shri R.N. Navghar and others and has
advised that Receipt book of Rs. 1100/-
per Head may be printed for collecting Donation to BPEF and be distributed to all
active office bearers. Similarly during All India Conference of unions Rs.
1100/- per office bearers may be collected at the conference place itself.
