Respected sir,

        A kind reference is invited to the above references and vide reference 1, Group-C cadre Postal wing cadre restructure order is released and LSG/HSG-II/HSG-I/HSG-I(NFG) posts are enhanced for general line.

Vide reference 2, it is assured that after implementation of cadre restructure in group-C, Postmaster cadre related cadre restructure also would have been examined in the light of the same.

At present promotional opportunities and number of Posts to Postmaster Grade II/Grade III/Sr.PM is very meager, recently promoted Postmaster Cadre officials are in drench to get their next stage of promotion in the postmaster hierarchy because of acute stagnation.

To get rid of that stagnation issues, Group C, cadre restructure was implemented and after cadre restructure norm based LSG posts along with ‘A’ class SPM posts are elevated as HSG-II and in the same way as per the Postmaster cadre recruitment rules, 1/3 of HSG-II/HSG-I/HSG-I(NFG) posts should be allotted to the Postmaster cadre in the following manner.

Postmaster Grade I		Postmaster Grade II		Postmaster Grade III
Before cadre restructure	After Cadre restructure	Before cadre restructure	After Cadre restructure	Before cadre restructure	After Cadre restructure
2097	2097+2831 = 4928	511	511+700 = 1211	495	495+ 77 =572

* 1/3 Posts of HSG-II posts are additionally carved out for PM Grade I 

* 1/3 Posts of HSG-I posts are additionally carved out for PM Grade II

* 1/3 Posts of HSG-I(NFG)posts are additionally carved out for PM Grade III

        So as constituted for the general line, this association is requesting the hon’ble DG sir, to kindly release early orders related to Postmaster Cadre restructure by enhancing 1/3 the number of posts Postmaster Grade I/II/III posts at par with general line HSG-II/HSG-I/HSG-I (NFG) posts respectively as per the relevant recruitment rules of the above cadre.

        A line in reply would be highly solicited.

Thanking you.
