Convening of regular DPC for promotion to PS Group ‘B’.

No. CHQ/IPASP/DPC/2012 Dated : 25/7/2012.

 

To,

 

Smt. Manjula Prasher,

Director General,

Department of Posts,

Dak Bhavan, New Delhi 110 001.

 

Sub: Convening of regular DPC for promotion to PS Group ‘B’.

 

Respected Madam,

 

Kindly refer to this Associations letter of even number dated 7/5/2012 regarding convening of regular and supplementary DPC for the promotion to PS Gr. B cadre.

 

There are set rules and procedure to convene DPCs at regular intervals to draw up panels which could be utilized for effecting promotions/against vacancies occurring during the course of a given year. As such, department should by now initiate action to fill up the existing as well as anticipated vacancies in the respective quota as per the instructions contained in DOP&T OM No. 22011/5/86-Estt.D dated 10/4/1986. By not adhering to the standing instructions of DOPT, the department is unnecessarily dragging the members of the Association into litigation.

 

It is pertinent to mention here that there remain 22 to 23 vacancies from the last DPC under 75% quota for the vacancy year 2011, so supplementary DPC for the vacancy year 2011 was required to be conducted as it is done every year before any promotion through LDCE (25% quota). But contrary to this, the department has declared the result of LDCE for PS Group “B” that too in a haste ignoring the right of Senior ASPs waiting their elevation for the last 23 to 24 years. Now, the department cannot blame members of the Association for any litigation that could arise owing to fixation of seniority for not convening supplementary DPC for the vacancies year 2011.

 

It is therefore once again requested that suitable orders may kindly be passed to put in place immediately for calling ACRs/APARs of eligible officers for holding DPC for the left out vacancies for the year 2011, and also for vacancy year 2012.

 

A positive action will be highly appreciated.

With regards,

Yours sincerely,

Verification of SB withdrawals exceeding Rs. 5000/-....Reg.

No. CHQ/IPASP/SB/2012 Dated : 23/7/2012.

To,

The Director General,

Department of Posts,

Dak Bhavan, Sansad Mark,

New Delhi 110 001.

Subject : Verification of SB withdrawals exceeding Rs. 5000/-....Reg.

 

Respected Madam,

 

This Association would like to bring to your kind notice that as per the provision laid down in Rule 85 of POSB Manual Vol-I, withdrawals of Rs. 5000/- and above in all BOs and single handed Departmental Sub Offices are to be verified by sub divisional heads or Public Relation Inspectors by contacting the depositor as quickly as possible.

 

It may be seen that as per the SB Order No. 19/2009 dated 14/12/2009, BPMs are authorised to sanction withdrawals from Rs. 2000/- to Rs. 5000/- independently without obtaining the prior approval of the Account Office. Admittedly, the number of such withdrawals requiring verification as per Rule 85 of POSB Manual Vol. I. This Association would like to further state that sub divisional heads have already over burdened since the introduction of MGNREGA (payment), monitoring of CBS work/ Delivery of Aadhar cards/ Project Arrow, opening of new accounts including BPL, procurement of PLI/RPLI business etc.

 

Further, as per the directions given under Directorate Memo No. 113-11/2003-SB dated 28/9/2006 and consequent upon the restrictions imposed by the Income Tax, all maturity amounts above Rs. 20,000/- are now being paid through cheque. In order to avoid the cheque system the customers are seeking other options like crediting the value into their SB accounts. This credit is normally followed by withdrawals from SB accounts which will be, in almost cases more than Rs. 5000/-. This increases the number of such withdrawals requiring verification as per the above cited rule.

 

Moreover the verification is now carried out with the help of Mail Overseers. Most of the accounts in the rural areas are operated by ladies out of their savings from daily work. The husband/other family members are not aware about this account and when Mail Overseers visit their house to verify the withdrawals, they are put to embarrassing situations. The value of rupee is also going down day by day and the number of deposits and withdrawals of high value are on the increase causing much work load to the sub divisional heads.

 

In view of the above lines, your kind honour is requested to look into the matter and cause to issue necessary amendment to Rule 85 of POSB Manual Vol-I by raising the limit of verification of SB withdrawals from Rs. 5000/- to Rs. 30000/-.

 

Hoping for an early action.

Yours sincerely,
