ANCHE NIRIKSHAK

Dear Friends,
I am happy that as per the decision taken in the last circle conference to create a blog for our circle association is fulfilled by Mr Naveen V.L IP Udupi within a short span. I personally thank him for his selfless efforts and the commitment shown towards the association. He is updating every available issue and send a reminder to all our members having CUG through an SMS alert. I hope that many of our members have visited and communicating through blog http://www.ipaspkarnataka.blogspot.com. I hope since the inception of our blog most of the time we communicated through the blog except some communication with CWC members for sending the authorization forms.
I am very much pained that in spite of sending the authorization forms to all the CWC members in all the divisions/ Regional/ Circle offices in advance, many CWC members have not returned the filled forms to the CS. I am sure that all IP ASPs are busy at all the times. We don’t have any time left for association activities but still I feel that at least our CWC members must have taken some initiative to collect these forms. I would also like to mention here that the subscriptions recovered from the members are sent by some HOs in the name of former Treasurer Sri Sudhakar Devadiga or to the CS. I have written to all Divisional Heads to send the subscription through emo to our Circle Treasurer Sri Joseph Rodrigues Inspector Posts Mangalore North Sub Division Mangalore 575 001( Ph No 94498 48935 CUG). I request the members while visiting HOs kindly make a note of this and inform the concerned.
Now, in our circle the CBS wave is very strong. No doubt it should have been implemented and streamlined by this time. Anyway we are happy that we can also boast of CBS, PBI etc. Being the grass root managers in the Dept we are always accustomed to shoulder all types of responsibilities. Now, the SBCO agreement work also thrust on the shoulders of IP / ASPs in the circle. I wonder what this SBCO and its controlling officers doing all these years. We have a project arrow and our members were targeted even for minor lapses in few cases. But what about SBCO! Who is to be blamed! Now, finally administration found IP ASPs for the job and issued circulars to utilize their services. In spite of this they ask explanations for not doing visits, not completing inquiries, inspections etc. I have written letter to the CPMG and PMGs about our resentment on the issue. This does not mean that we are not co-operating on CBS issues. In few divisions the administration has asked the IP ASPs to complete the balance authentication / SBCO agreement on priority. My concern is that the administration should introspect about the primary duties of an IP ASP. If the CBS is important now, then the administration need not ask / expect any explanation from any IP ASPs on issues relating to their Primary duties.
