20.02.2013 & 21.02.2013 – Two Days Strike

20.02.2013 & 21.02.2013 – Two Days General Strike

 

As you know about the Two Days General Srike Notice by Two Federations & it's affeliates unions.The joint strike notice had been served by the Postal JCA to the Department of Posts on 22.01.2013 in which they raised the postal oriented demands like the appointment of the 7th Pay Commission, DA merger, abolitions of posts, National Postal Policy, Cadre review, etc.

 

Although,We agree with the main charter of demands, but it's again regretted that neither any federal leader nor any union has taken  this association in  their proper confidence and they know very well, whithout the full cooperation of POstal Supervisors, NO strike can be go sucessful.In such  position they would have to call-off this strike at last moment too as this association will not go on strike.

Timely intimation about payment of additional fee under RTI Act 2005

Min of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions

 

No. 12/31/2013-IR dated 11-2-1013

Subject: Timely intimation about payment of additional fee under RTI Act 2005

It has been brought to the n notice of the Central Information Commission that some CPIOs inform the information seeker about the additional fee under sub section 7(3) of the RTI Act at the fag end of the thirty days period prescribed for providing the information under sub-section 7(1) of the RTI Act.

2.         The Central information Commission in one of its orders has mentioned that while there cannot be any hard and fast rule about when exactly the intimation about the photocopying charges should be conveyed to the information seeker, it is implied in the prescribed time limit that the demand for the photocopying charges must be made soon   after the RTI application is received so that the information seeker has time to deposit the fees and received the information within the prescribed thirty days period. If the information sought is not voluminous or is not dispersed over a large number of files, computation of the photocopying charges should not be a time consuming task. As soon as the RTI application is received, the holder of the information should decide about how much information to disclose and then calculate the photocopying charges so that the CPIO can immediately write to the information seeker demanding such fees.

3.         This may be brought to the notice of all concerned for compliance.
