Sub: Charter of Demands in respect of Inspector, Posts cadre.

Respected Madam,

You are well aware that there is single recognized Association in the Department of Posts representing Inspectors and Assistant Superintendents, Posts. During the last Central Working Committee meeting of our Association, the CWC registered its concern towards the inordinate delay in processing the demand for higher grade pay to IP on par with Inspector cadre in other Central Government Departments/Ministries. All our members are very much aggrieved and frustrated due to the inaction and indifferent attitude of the Department towards Inspector, Posts cadre.

You may also well aware that the recommendations of the second CRC are still pending for implementation despite issue of Presidential sanction in the year 1990 but the same has not been implemented so far. Department has recently constituted a committee under the Chairmanship of DDG (P) for cadre review proposals relating to Group “C”, Postman/Mail Guard and MTS staff but the Department has failed to initiate action for forming cadre review committee in respect of Inspector, Posts cadre ignoring the instructions of the Nodal Department issued vide No.35034/9/2010-Estt.(D) dated 10.02.2011.

In addition to above two issues, other issues mentioned in the Charter of Demands are also equally important and deserve liquidation by the Department. All these issues have already been taken by us with the Department from time to time but no positive action is forthcoming. All these issues are agitating the minds of our members and they are feeling frustrated as the Department is not recognizing the services rendered by our cadre and the Department has even failed to finalize some of our demands in which no financial implications are involved.

Therefore, our Association has decided to submit the enclosed charter of demands to the Department. Our Association appeals the Secretary, Department of Posts to hold meeting with the Association to discuss and resolve these issues in positive manner.

We hope that the Department will come forward for discussion on the issues mentioned in the Charter of Demands at the earliest.

Awaiting favourable response.

Yours sincerely,

(Roop Chand)
