Respected sir,
1.
A
Kind reference is invited to the above cited RRs and letters, Vide reference 1, even after 6 years
from the creation of Postmaster cadre, not even a single DPC was conducted for
the Senior Postmaster Posts promotion and Vide
reference 2, even after 1 and half years from All India Grade III draft
Seniority was not finalized by the Postal Directorate.
2.
For
regular DPC conduction by finalizing the All India Grade III seniority this
association had also requested several times vide Reference 3, but because
of the prolonged delay most of the Postmaster Grade III senior most officials
were started to retire from even their service without their due Sr. Postmaster
promotions.
3.
Because
of the prolonged delay in conduction of DPC for the Sr. Postmaster posts by the
Postal Directorate, Adhoc promotion request was given by this association
circle secretaries to the following circles viz Chattisgarh, Tamilnadu,
Maharastra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telengana Circles and circles were
reluctant to give the Adhoc Promotion by giving the following replies.
4.
Identification of Sr.
Postmaster Posts were not done by the directorate:
a)
LSG/HSG
II/HSG I and Postmaster Grade I/II/III are different cadres hence Postmaster
Grade I/II/III posts were carved out from LSG/HSG II/HSG I posts and identified
as Postmaster Grade I/II/III posts, whereas for Senior Postmaster Posts,
Postmaster Grade III officers and IP line officers are just sharing 25% and 75%
quota respectively.
b)
There
are 116 Senior Postmaster gazetted Head Post offices are well available and in
those posts non feeder cadre ASP and PS Group B officials were given with Adhoc
and as well as regular promotion against to the gazette recruitment rules.
Without identification of such Sr.Postmaster Posts how ASP/PS Group B officials
could be posted as Senior Postmasters by the postal circles?
c)
It
is pertinent to mention here that Vide Sr. Postmaster Recruitment rules para 5
(vii) after entering in Sr.PM posts both IP and as well as PM Grade III
officials would be eligible for induction in IPoS, Gr ‘A’ on the basis of a
consolidated eligibility list with PS Group B officials.
d)
If so be the case
then for PS Group B posts whether posts are identified for 75% quota of ASPs?
19% quota of IPs? And 6% quota of LSG lines? No as per the sharing quota posts were
filled by the ASPs, IPs and LSG line officials. The same scenario applied to
JTS promotions too.
e)
So
question of identification won’t be arise at all, that’s why during the
commencement of Sr. PM Recruitment rules 2010, such identification was not
sought by the directorate from postal circles.
5.
Initial constitution
was pending at directorate:
a)
As
per the Sr.Postmaster recruitment rules gazette notification column 11 of the Sr. PM RR table it was
clearly mentioned that during the commencement i.e., during 2010 itself
initial constitution should have been completed by getting option from the PS
Group B officials.
b)
For
that past 6 years no PS Group B official was posted such initial constitution option
hence no such question of getting initial constitution will raise and it is
violation to the column 11 of recruitment rules gazette table.
6.
Filling up of the Sr.
Postmaster Posts will be done by the directorate:
a)
Yes Sr. Postmaster post is All India cadre and Gazetted rank
post, hence regular DPC have to be conducted in directorate only.
b)
But because of the
regular DPC prolonged delay only Adhoc Promotion request was submitted to the
circle heads who are competent for such Adhoc Promotions.
7.
Hence this
association requests the honorable Secretary Sir to kindly instruct all the
postal circles to fill up the Sr. Postmaster Posts on Adhoc basis till regular
DPC to Senior Postmaster promotion.
a)
Non
feeder cadre ASP/PS Group B officials may kindly be vacated from the Sr.
Postmaster posts. After 2010 Sr. PM RRs, Postmaster Grade III officials and IP
officers are only the feeder cadre to Sr. Postmaster posts.
i)
25%
quota of Sr. Postmaster cadre 29 posts may kindly be filled on Adhoc basis from
2 years’ service completed Postmaster
Grade III officials as per the concerned circle seniority till such regular DPC was conducted by the postal directorate
ii)
75%
quota of Sr. Postmaster cadre 87 posts may kindly be filled on Adhoc basis from
6 years’ service completed Inspector
Posts officials as per the concerned circle seniority till such Sr. Postmaster posts examination
was conducted by the postal directorate
8.
An
immediate action and one copy of such instructions to the Postal Circle may
kindly be communicated to the undersigned would be highly solicited sir.
With
profound regards,
Copy to,
1.
The
ADG (SPG) Dak Bhawan, Sansad Marg, New Delhi – 110001 kindly recall the
telephonic conversation and as sought by the SPG section above letter was
