AGENDA ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION WITH MOC & I.T. & POSTAL SERVICES BOARD
Bharatiya Postal Employees Federation - Related to
General orders .
Item No. 1: Regarding enquiry over
results of verification process.
Sir,
the result of verification process was announced on 22nd September ,
2010 and it kept on modifying till February 2013 for one reason or another. Therefore, it may be quashed as the review of membership done by Chief
Postmaster Generals of Circles and carried out by Divisional heads without
participation of representative of applicant
Unions as desired by Para 2 (ii) of letter dated 18-02-2010 ( Communication
regarding procedure to be adopted in re-verification process)
We demand thorough enquiry and action over erring offices as
mentioned in para 3 of letter dated 18-02-2010. There is ample time to do so as
five years terms to recognized unions expires in February, 2018.
Item No. 2 : Implementation of
decision of Court of law accepted by Department to all instead of applicant
only.
Sir, Department is
implementing the decisions of court of
law pertaining to modification in
General Service & Pay Rules to
applicants only without extending it to similarly placed employees which is creating anomalies
in pay of large section of employees . This
item bears importance as it is being placed before Hon’ble Law Minister for
having a clear cut guidance.
1.
O.A.
NO. 2124/2011 in Principal Bench New Delhi filed by AIPEA Union upheld by Hon’ble
Supreme Court in April, 2013 has been implemented by P.A.
Wing, Deptt. of post. It is regarding
stepping up of Pay of Senior working in Postal Accounts in respect to junior on account grant of ACPs benefits. It has been implemented to members of only one union AIPA EA filing the OA and other employee of Postal Accounts were left
out and the anomalies thus produced remained unheard .
We demand order
immediate implementation to all
employees of Postal Accounts .
2.
OA
No. 955/2013 in CAT Principle Bench New Delhi dated 11-3-2014 filed by Krishan
Kumar working in New Delhi GPO as PA and implemented by CPMG New Delhi. This is regarding grant of BCR
promotion on account of completing 26 year in period July 2008 to August 2008. It has been granted to Applicant
only and other employees of Postal Department in different cadre completing 26
years of service between the period
mentioned were deprived off this
provision modified by Court of Law.
We demand orders for
extension of benefit to All others similarly situated employees. .
3.
O.A.
No. 164/2005 upheld by Delhi High Court
in Dharam Singh & others implemented by Deptt. vide 2-48/2011-GDS dated
17-08-2012 and corrigendum even No. PCC dated 3-9-2012. This wa regarding upgradation of pay scales of packer
from 750-940 to 950-1500 since 4th
C.P.C. The implementation was restricted
to Test category employee and that too without deciding there due upgradations
of TBOP/BCR/ ACP pay scales leaving aside non test categories
employees who have always been treated as at par with test categories employees. A similar decision in O.A. No. 464/2014 to
482/2014 dated 8-8-2014 of CAT Bombay is still pending although Bombay Circle
is regularly reminding every months to ADG (GDS/ PCC) for implementing to test as well as not test
category .
We,
demand order for implementation to non test employees also. We also demand
decision over TBOP/BCR / ACP scales to these employees since 4th CPC.
Item
No. 3 : Harassment of office bearers of BPEF & its affiliated
unions.
Sir, the Federation, being aggrieved due to apathy as well as intense
reactionary behavior of lower officers towards the spirit of orders for grant
of three trade union facilities to BPEF and its affiliated unions, is
accepting with heavy hearts that the
entire union is now being engaged in representing, pursuing and fighting
against the transfer orders of Divisional Secretaries, Treasurers &
presidents issued by Divisions Heads.
The relationship between administration and BPEF members are now badly
disturbed at Divisions. We are not sure whether the confusion lies at level of
senior officers of Directorate / Circles / Regions / Divisions or at level of lower officers
about the implementation of orders of three trade union facilities.
To end up all confusions and is order to move further ahead for
departmental progress, we demand that the specific instructions by way of
specific orders or by way of instructions during video conferencing with the
officers of Circle / Divisions may be issued so that a well clarified
understanding can be developed among Sr. officers & Jr. officers at each
level with regards to grant of three facilities to BPEF & its affiliated
unions.
Apart from above request, the Federation also request that the following
transfer orders issued with malafied intentions may be corrected as one time
measure.
1.

G. Rajendran, SPM, Chatham and Divisional Secy. BPEA Gr. C from Port Blair to
Southern Islands who had being transferred to Port blair only 6 month back from
Southern Islands

Agenda for discussion
BPEA Association Gr. ‘C’ affiliated to BPEF
Item No. 1: MACPs anomalies
due to switching over from TBOP /BCR scheme to it and creation of Postmaster
cadre.
Sir, Department has switched over to
MACPs scheme from TBOP/ BCR and in the mean time created PM Cadre in Postal
Assistant cadre. The genuine problems of smaller section of TBOP/BCR employees
and Postmaster cadre employees remained un heard and therefore varying thought
are being prorogated by Circles for want of clear cut order from Directorate. Hence
this item of agenda.
Reckoning of regular service under
MACPs ( para 9 of Annexure -1) :
(a)
The
Department defines para 9 of Annexure -1 in its clarification dated 4-7/
MACPS/2009-PCC dated 25-5-2011. as “According
to para 9 of Annexure –I to MACPS issued by deptt. on 18-9-2009 regular service
for the purpose MACPS shall common from date of joining of a post is Direct
entry grade on regular basis either on direct recruitment , or on absorb or
reemployment ban “. But the Department fails to rely over this
clarification while reckoning 20 years regular service for MACPS benefits to a
TBOP PA or reckoning 10 years regular service form date of eligible of 2nd
MACPs.
The
case of Shri K.K. Kar , S.A. ‘N’ Dn. RMS Bhubaneshwar Orissa circle . DOE in MM as
18-10-83, date of first promiittee is SA cadre 22-2-89 . Got TBOP in SA cadre
on 13-03-2005 is cited as an example for correcting his 3rd MACPs. Our
contention is that since promotional post of Shri Kar is SA cadre and therefore whatever regular service is to be counted for grant of
MACPS is to be counted from date of entry in SA cadre only ( as allowed
by para 9 of Annexure-I and defined by Department.
) and not from date of TBOP upgradation
as TBOP is no any post . If 10 year from TBOP is counted for 3rd
MACPs it is against the provisions of
MACP and also junior who did not get TBOP will be provided 3rd
MACP earlier than Senior who has earned
TBOP prior to him. . We demand that Shri Kar
be granted 3nd MACPs on completion of 20 year of service in
SA cadre as he is a promottee SA from Gr. D.
(b)
Post
Master cadre has been created from LSG posts but some PA (TBOP) were allowed to
switchover in that cadre without pay fixation benefit as both were carrying
similar grade pay.
How the benefit of
MACPs will be granted is unknown to
Bombay Circle in case of Shri Ram Singh vellshing Pardeshi PM
Grade –I ISP Nasik Road DOE in PA cadre 14-7-82, date of TBOP 14-4-2008 and date of
appointment in P.M. cadre 08 --09-2011 .
He has been told by Division that he has
to await another 10 years from P.M.
Grade –I for any further MACPS as he has changed the cadre from Postal
Assistant to Postmaster cadre .
It is a mockery of reckoning of regular
services for MACPs benefits under para 9 of
Annexure –I . We demand that Shri Pardeshi be granted 2nd
MACPs on completion of 20 year of service in PA cadre.
Counting of
promotions to provide MACPs benefits. :
(C ) As per provision
in RR of Postman & Mailguard and PA/SA cadre , a Group ‘D’ now MTS can appear
in Departmental Exam. for promotion in
these cadre simultaneously.
A Gr. ‘D’ appeared in
both exam in same year and joined Postman after becoming successful in that
Exam. and after few month joined in PA
cadre after becoming successful PA cadre
Exam.
In this service
condition of Gr. D above the Circle / Divisional administration are counting
the resignation from Postman cadre and
joining in PA cadre within lapse of few month as promotion for the purpose of
granting further MACPs. Our contention
is that every promotion has to be supported by Recruitment Rules of that cadre. In the instant case requirement
of RR of PA cadre has not been fulfilled by that Gr. D . Thus in no case it is
promotion from Postman to PA cadre .
We, demand that
orders may be issued from Directorate that thus the above joining in PA cadre after resignation from Postman
cadre should not be counted as promotion
for MACPs purposes and due MACPs be provided to them.
Item No. 2 : Problem in APM Accounts
cadre
(a) As
per MOF OM No. F.6(1)-E.II(B)/68 dated 08-01-1968 : Special pay in lieu
of separate higher scale drawn in lower
post continuously for a period of three
years on the date of promotion / financial up-gradation under the Normal rules
was allowed to be treated as part of Basic pay for the purpose of pay fixation.
This principle has been forcefully clubbed while implementing judgement
in case of Mohan Kumar & others in OA No. 296/2002 dated 22-10-02 and
deptt. issued order vide F.No. 2-19/2011-PAP dated 10-1-2013 restricting the benefits to all employees up to 22-04-98 .
The fact is that there are others employee
who have actually drawn special pay continuously for 3
years on the date of promotion and their
claim has been ignored by Deptt. by issuance of order dated 10-1-2013.
We, demand that the special pay may be taken
as part of pay during the promotion without making restriction of extension of
benefit upto 24-4-98.
Item No. 3: Urgent
Requirement of accessories in Post offices :
Several Business and Financial activities are
being carried out and modernization of Post offices are being done with in
complete installation of software in
Post offices and its Branches. The
employees are compelled to face ire of public for want of complete computer accessories like Printer,
counting Machine and even
computer sets . The Internet connection of SIFI is very slow . Due to
deficiency of these they have to attend
the office late in night to complete the work .
We, demand that at least accessories like Printer , cash counting machine , and Stationary
etc. may be provided in ample quantities
to ease
daily Postal operation work.

Item No. 1: Anomalies in
Postman & MTS cadre produced through Communication dated 4-11-2013:
(1)
A
communication 1-20/2008-PCC dated 4-11-2013 has been issued with subject –
Application of provisions of para 5 of Annexure of vis-à-vis para 6.2 of O.M.
on MACPS dated 18-9-09 .
The
Examples quoted in Para 2 a & b may be modified for MTS and Postman cadre as below. In absence of clarification, recovery from Pension are being made in case
of Shri Kanti Mohan Srivastava and Shri Jagdish Postman posted at Luckow chowk
by DAP Luckknow.
The scale of pay of Postman has been
up-graded from 3050 – 4590 to 3200-4900.
Which coincided with there TBOP scale . Thus as mentioned in above clarification the para 5 provides for ignoring of this TBOP promotion and allows
consideration during grant of MACPs
benefits. Thus the three MACPs benefits in Postman cadre under different service
conditions would have been as tabulated.

(2) Gr. ‘D’/ Mailman has been wrongly placed

D was having promotional hierarchy in Postman / Mailguard cadre and the BCR scale was equivalent to Postman entry pay.
With upgradation of entry pay of Postman the BCR pay of Gr. D now MTS was also upgraded
to 3200 –4900 as per para 6 of Annexure I. (as
mentioned in above communication ) .
Thus grade pay of Gr. D. now MTS under different conditions is as below.

We, demand specific order in these cadre
under different service conditions as
mentioned above may please be issued because in absence of it recovery are being made from Pension by DAP offices. The case of recovery
form pension in respect of shri Kanti Mohan Shrivastava and Shri Jagdish ,
Postman at Lucknow Chowk H.O. due to not
ignoring TBOP promotion are placed as example .
Item No. 2 ; Non
supply of Dress to postman .
In several Circle Dress to Postman are not
being distributed for last 5 years . It may please be ensured in all Circles.
Item No. 3 : The grant of selection
grade lift Man cadre working in postal Building maintenance Deptt. under CPMGs.
at par with those working in Civil wing of Department of Post.
The
lift operator in Civil Wing as well as lift man in Postal Building maintenance
staff subject is same in all respect as
mentioned in Department communication – A-4/2010-PCC dated 2-5-2011
communicated to CPMG Maharashtra Circle. Though this communication department
accepts that though selection grade after 8 years of service in lift man cadre
is available in CPWD but the same is not mentioned in RR of Lift man working in
Department of post.
Since the Civil Wing of Department of Post
has modified the RR of Lift Man in has granted selection grade after 8 years of
service to the Lift Man working at Dak Bhawan . The case of Shri K.L. Tiwari , Lift operator working in
Dak Bhawan, New Delhi and granted
selection grade vide letter No. ED (E)PED-1/ND/DPC/762-66 dated 13-08-2013 is
being cited as example for modification of RR of lift Man of Postal Building
maintenance staff under CPMGs .
In view of above , we demand that the
same benefit may be extended to lift man of Postal Building Maintenance
staff. The case of Shri S.S. Jadhav working as lift man in Bombay GPO in
Maharashtra Circle is being cited for not getting selection grade in lift man
cadre.

Item No. 1 : Clubbing of
communication dated 23-10-2010
issued by PE section and dated 12-8-2011
issued by PCC section of Department of Post in order to correctly fix the pay
of Wireman working as Postal building maintenance staff under CPMGs and those
working under Civil Wing.
With
regard to pay scales of Wireman working in Department of Post a communication
No. 2-12/2000-PE-I dated 23-10-2002 has been issued to clarify that Wireman in Deptt. of Post as an isolated post with entry
pay 210-270 with replacement scale in IV the CPC as 800-1150 and with
replacement scale in 5th CPC as
2650-4000 and now 1800 G.P. in . 6th
CPC.
Similarly vide para 2 of Comm. No. 2-13/2009-PCC dated 12-8-2011 it has
been decided that if any pay scale
granted to any wireman that is not
framing a part of hierarchy then that was
to be withdrawn and fall in pay is to be
granted as personal pay to be adjusted in future increments . Similarly the ACP –I grade pay has been
granted as Rs. 4000-6000 & ACP-II
granted as 4500-7000.
Both the communication mentioned above are
not been clubbed correctly by the Circle authorities and reductions in pay , if
any , due to grant of wrong entry pay to the Wire Man are not
being formed as personal pay to be adjusted with future increments. Also in
lack of it ACP-I &ACP-II scale are also not been granted.
At
this stage, when employee of this dying cadre of wireman are retiring (
some of them retired also ) and the ACP scheme has also been replaced with
MACPs , there is urgent need to issue specific orders by clubbing both communication issued by PCC and PE section of Department so that correct pay fixation of these
employees can be reached. The order to open past and pension cases may also be
issued with instructions to revise the pensions.
Item No. 2: Review of CGHS system adopting in
Lucknow (U.P.) on adock basis:
Earlier, there was P&T dispensary system
in Lucknow for Postal & Telecom employees. In last year CGHS system was
introduced in Lucknow on experimental basis. The CGHS dispensaries are unable
to provide proper treatment of employees and therefore allowing them to purchase medicine from market. This scheme
is better for retired employee and not for employee in service. Therefore we
demand that old system may be introduced in lucknow and retired employees may
be allowed to be become CGHS beneficiary .
Item No. 3 : The restructuring
committee formed in Civil Wing of Department of posts is with holding its
recommendations. We demand that the recommendations may be produced for
financial concurrence and for approval of Secretary post for onwards submission
to Finance Ministry.

structure i.e. between 1-1-06 to 30-08-2008 to Directly recruited Gr. D now MTS

grant of ACP on 1-1-2006 to those Gr. D who have earned promotion in merged pay
scales of 6th CPC in the light of FAQ clarification 27 (iii) issued
by DOP&T and endorsed by PA Wing .
(i)
We
demand for deciding of ACP grade pay to
Erstwhile Gr. ‘D’ now MTS becoming eligible for ACP on & after 1-1-2006
till 30-08-2008 in New Pay structure as decided and mentioned in FAQ
clarification No. 27 (II) endorsed by PA wing vide 15(1)/10/PA Admn.-I/534-557

(I)/10/PA(Admn..-i/ 534 to 537 dated 23-12-2013.
Item No. 2: Proposal of restructuring in postal Accounts .
(i) Sir, The restructuring proposal is r/o merging
of cadre of LDC, Sorter & Data entry operator and remaining them as
Accounts Assistant and placing them is Grade Pay of 2400 has been returned by Finance
Ministry for having financial Concurrence and approval of competent authority.
The proposal still pending we demand its submission with all formalities to
Finance Ministry.
(ii)
Sir, Restructuring proposal is r/o up-gradation /replacement grade pay to
Senor A/c to Rs. 4600 has been returned by Finance Ministry for having finance
concurrence and proper recommended of concerned Authority. The same is still pending therefore we demand its
submission Finance Ministry after completion of all formalities .
Item No. 3 : MACPS in cadre Hierarchy
:
The Govt. has switched over from ACP scheme
to MACP scheme and therefore it is not correct to change its very principle to
grant MACPS in cadre hierarchy rather than in grade pay hierarchy. The Hon’ble Supreme Court is SLP CC 7467/ 2013
dated 10-4-13 has rejected the contention of Govt. to grant MACPS in grade pay
hierarchy and restored MACPS to be granted in cadre hierarchy as being done
during ACPS.
Therefore, we demand that the Department instead of defending the cases of grant of MACPS in grade pay hierarchy it may issue order to grant it in cadre hierarchy.

to BPEF
Item No. 1 : Regarding for seniority
Cum-fitness promotion from Mailguard to Sorting Assistant :
It was communicated to our union vide
37-5/2010 –SPB-I dated 23-2-2010 that during finalization of RR of Mail Guard & PA/SA the view of
our union will be taken into account on the issue of 50% SCF quota in RR of MG
and SA of RMS. Unfortunately no proposal
has been demanded from us and RR has been finalized.
Thus
we demand that our proposal to create 50% promotion quota on SCF basis in SA cadre for promotion
from Mailguard cadre may be created and
RR by modifying it .
Item No. 2: Revival of 101 Sorting offices abolished by a
policy of Department:
An communication
over Merger / Abolition of RMS office
was issued vide No. 28-19/2006-D dated 19-09-2007 to inform us that 101 sorting offices were
closed on account of agreement with recognized unions. This decision was
operationally advantageous and will lead to expedited delivery of Mail. It is
also a part of initiative to consolidated Mail offices and Rationalize Mail
Network to reduce cost of operation ,
quality of service and ensure optimal utilization of resources.
The decision has put following draw backs in RMS operations .
1.
Mail
, now at this stage, are badly delayed.
2.
The
employees have to handle many times an article than he was handling previously.
3.
Unnecessarily
travelling of Mail between one stations to another is the out come of Hub
system .
4.
Since
Govt. has decided to scrutinize the sorting offices with help of recognized union , they have only taken care
that offices where there members of
recognized unions are posted that
offices were not abolished and were Bharatiya
union members were employed that offices were abolished.
Thus we demand that those offices which have
been abolished due to MNOP may be revived.
Item No. 3:
Utilization of Mail Vans standing in the loco set of Railways.
Sir, the Deptt. has to bear the cost of constructing
the Mail Vans according to our use and
its utilization to Railways
Deptt.. But the Department has discontinued
its use and now a days they are utilize by Railway Department as accident vans and most of them are standing in Loco sets .
We demand that orders
for utilization of Mail Vans may be issued.

allowance instead of the usual travelling allowances on account of period of absence from HQ in
connecting with such duties exceeding six hours.

the period of stay in localities where higher rate of DA is admissible the
normal rates of OSA may be enhance by 20%.
(ii) Sir, the OTA are being granted for completion of those work which can not be suspended for even a single minutes and therefore an employee has to continuous
that work beyond duty hours.
In R.M.S. running sections and set duties if
his replacement do not turn up then same employee is asked to continue the
journey and work for next 24 or 48 hours so that transmission and delivery of
Mail do not suffer. The 6th CPC has not imposed any restriction of OTA but our department who is running RMS section and allow complete 8 hours duty must give one day
pay in lieu of OTA.
Therefore we demand that the RMS employee may not be placed alongwith general pool
employees who occasionally work on OTA .
Suitable approach to grant complete one day work may be made.
