No. CHQ/IPASP/PS-Gr.B/Assam-1/2013 Dated : 22/4/2013

Ms. P. Gopinath,

Secretary,

New Delhi-110001.

Subject: Regarding non maintaining uniformity by Circles in making Adhoc Promotion of ASPs to PS Gr. B Cadre.

Respected Madam,

The IP/ASP Association intends to bring to your kind notice how Circles are resorting to ad-hoc arrangement in total disregard to the statutory provisions on the subject as well as proper manpower management and career advancement of the employees. As explained in DOP&T’s O.M. No.28036/8/87-Estt.(D) dated 30.03.1988 read with O.M. No.28036/1/2001-Estt.(D) dated 23.07.2001,promotions/ appointments on ad-hoc basis are to be resorted to a post which cannot be kept vacant in consideration of its functional/operational requirement. In our Department, posts of PS Group ‘B’ are of such a nature that these cannot be kept vacant in the larger interest of department and public as well.

Whenever ad-hoc promotions are found inescapable in selection posts in the exigency of service, the same should be ordered only from amongst the senior-most eligible staff. As a rule, a junior should not be promoted, ignoring his senior unless the competent authority ordering the ad-hoc promotion, considers him unsuitable. Certain circles are over sighting these rules while making ad-hoc promotions. Assam Circle is set example where two juniors of Shri Ganesh Kumar Sarmah, ASP (HQ), Tezpur Division are still working on ad-hoc basis in PS Gr. B cadre at Circle office as ADPS (Mails) and ADPS (FS) ignoring the right of Shri Ganesh Kumar Sarmah. It means that inter-se-seniority has not been taken in to consideration while making the ad-hoc arrangements in PS Gr. B cadre.

This Association therefore requested your honour to kindly issue instructions to all the circles to fill short term vacancies of PS Gr. B cadre on ad-hoc basis according to the guidelines issued by DOP&T and as per the inter-se-seniority cum fitness at the earliest and convene timely DPC in each cadre for career advancement of the employees and to avoid ad-hoc arrangements that is otherwise also creating ambiguities.

Hoping for a proper course of action and line in reply.

Yours sincerely,

Sd/-

Letter to Secretary (Posts)...Regarding Non implementation of Modified Assured Carrier Scheme for Inspector Posts/Assistant Supdt. Posts cadre in true spirit.

Secretary,

Dak Bhavan, Sansad Marg,

New Delhi 110 001.

Subject : Non implementation of Modified Assured Carrier Scheme for Inspector Posts / Assistant Supdt. Posts cadre in true spirit.

Respected Madam,

Your kind attention is invited to this Associations letter of even number dated 10/12/2012 and 4/3/2013 wherein justice being denied to our members due to non convening of DPC for grant of timely MACP by circles was brought to the notice of Directorate but unfortunately no attention seems to have been paid at Directorate level towards above said letters, as till this date, neither the above cited letters acknowledged nor replied.

This Association would like to bring to your kind notice that, DOPT has already issued crystal clear instructions under their OM No. 35034/3/2008-Estt(D) dated 19/5/2009 stating that cases maturing during the first half (April-September) of a particular financial year shall be taken up for consideration by the Screening Committee meeting in the first week of January. Similarly, the Screening Committee meeting in the first week of July of any financial year shall process the cases that would be maturing during the second-half (October-March) of the same financial year.

In view of the above, this Association has requested Directorate vide above referred letters to issue instructions to all circles to follow the orders issued by DOPT both in letter and spirit, but till date many circles have not convened their pending DPCs for MACP to IP/ASP cadre.

It is therefore once again requested to kindly issue strict instructions to all circles to convene the pending DPCs by the end of this month.

A line in reply is requested.

Yours sincerely,

Sd/
