In view of inertness shown to our

Item
No. 3:
The orders of TBOP/BCR to erstwhile Gr. ‘D’ now MTS dated
6-9-2010 & 18-07-2011 were not in conformity with 6th CPC
recommendation or DOP&T guidelines dealing pay regulation as on 1-1-06 and
as on 1-9-08 for merged pre-revised scales.
These
order were withdrawn after lapse of more than 2 years vide order dated 4-11-13
but it terms were not made clear in following ways.
(i)
The MACPS benefits on
1-9-08 are to be provided as per Deptt. of post clarification No.
4-7/MACPS/2009-PCC dated 11-1-2013 but there is no mention of it in the letter.
Therefore Para 2 (a) and para 2(b) of
letter may be amended accordingly.
(ii)
The ACP benefit as on
1-1-06 may be provided for merged pre-revised scales as per clarification in (I) of DOP&T order
dated 10-2-2000 and also an sprits of clarification No. 27 of FAQ issued vide OM No. 35034/3/2008-Estt.(D)
on 1-4-11. The order has no mention of these communication. Therefore para 2 (b) may be amended accordingly.
(iii)
The para 3 of letter dated 4-11-2013 that the case of
retired/ died on or after 1-1-06 but before 1-9-2008 may not be opened may be taken backend all the recovered
amount due to order dated 6-9-2010 &
18-07-2011may be paid with interest and the officer issuing above orders may be
replaced and necessary disciplinary action for misusing administrative power may
be initiated.
Item
No. 4:
Since 4th CPC, FR-22-C and its subsequent replacement were
applicable to all Govt. employees promoted to another post caring higher duties and responsibility of greater importance than those attached to the post
held by him. These orders were also reiterated in 6th CPC.
Thus, 3% benefit on promotion to post carrying higher responsibility may be extended to all
promotions irrespective of MACP provisions.
Item
No. 5:
(a) As per clarification No. 3 dated 18-10-2010 the eligibility date of 2nd MACPS for
promote PA is 10 years from 1st
Promotion or MACPS and this date has
been detached from date of actual
benefit of 2nd MACPS.
The units, in cases where promottee PA has been conferred
with TBOP up-gradation , eligibility
date of 2nd MACPS i.e. 10
years after Ist promotion is being
denied and is being linked up with date of grant of Actual benefit of 2nd
MACP i.e. TBOP . This is disturbing date of eligibility of 3rd
MACPS.
Thus we demand that sprit of clarification
No. 3 dated 18-10-10 may not be diluted and eligibility date of 2nd MACP as
well as 3rd MACPS may be correctly reckoned.
(b) Since BCR Scheme has been withdrawn from 1-9-08 , therefore the last DPC due on 1-1-09
may be convened on 31-08-2008 itself and benefit of BCR to those completing 26
years of service in July & Aug. 2008 may be provided .
(c) Group ‘D’ employees as and when become eligible for Postman / Mailguard as
well as PA/SA cadre, take up the exam.
simultaneously scheduled in same
calendar year. On clearing the PM/MG Exam. first they join it and later on join PA/SA when they
become successful in it also. Certainly the shifting from
PM/MG to PA/SA is not a promotional as the employee has not fulfilled the terms and condition for taking up PM/ MG to PA/SA
Exam.
But while conferring MACP
benefit this shifting from PM/MG to PA/SA post is being considered as promotion , thus denying
due benefit of MACP . Clarification in this regard may please be issued.
(d) The Postmaster cadre has been carved out form PA cadre.
But the units are considering the placement in postmaster cadre by examination
from PA cadre as a promotion in separate cadre and are counting it a promotion to deny MACPS benefit
.Clarification in this regard may please be issued.
