Letter to Secretary (Posts) i/c/w non payment of RPLI incentives to Sub Divisional Heads.
No. CHQ/AIAIPASP/RPLI-Incentive/2013 Dated : 22/7/2013
To,
Ms. P. Gopinath,
Director General,
Department of Posts,
Dak Bhavan, Sansad Marg,
New Delhi 110 001.
Subject : Non payment of RPLI incentives to Sub Divisional Heads.
Respected Madam,
PLI Directorate vide letter No. 26-2/2009-LI dated 16-01-2013 has issued clarification about admissibility of incentive to SDI/ASP for verification/scrutiny of RPLI proposals clarifying that neither the Directorate letter no 26-02/2009-LI dated 18.9.2009 nor any other subsequent letter has been superseded by any of Directorate letter. Unfortunately despite clear and repeated instructions most of the postal divisions in the country are not still paying incentive equal to 10% of the procurement commission paid to the Gramin Dak Sewaks and Gramin Dak BPM’s whose proposals are verified by such SDI/ASP. As such these orders are found not implemented in true spirit.
Furthermore, the PLI/RPLI work has long back been decentralized to the Divisions except Surrender and Death claims. This has increased enormous work pressure on the Divisional Office, particularly, the IPs and ASPs working in the Divisional Office. At present Inspectorial Staff are burdened with variety of duties in addition to what has been enumerated in Chapter-III of Postal Manual Volume-VIII. The honorarium paid to the Inspectorial Staff attending to the scrutiny of new proposals is Rs. 2/- per proposal subject to ceiling of Rs. 4000/- p.a. The ceiling of Rs. 4000/- p. a. honorarium was fixed by the Department of Personnel & Training which includes, the honorarium paid for conducting departmental inquiries as IO or PO and also other allied additional works.
The quantum of honorarium paid for scrutiny of PLI/RPLI proposals is no commensurate with the quantum of work performed and the ceiling on honorarium is a major setback for the Inspectorial Staff working in Divisional Offices. The Association requests your kind honour to replace the existing system of payment of honorarium for this work without a ceiling limit of Rs. 4000/- and Inspectorial Staff may be remunerated at the same rate not as honorarium but as incentive that do not have any limitations. Also call for reports from Circles why incentive equal to 10% of the procurement commissions as required in Directorate letter No. 26-2/2009-LI dated 16-1-2013 of the procurement commission paid to the GDS whose proposals are verified by SDI (P)/ASP is not being paid despite clear instructions on the issue.
With warm regards,
Yours sincerely,

In view of the above lines, this Association has requested Directorate vide above referred letters to issue strict instructions to all circles to follow the orders issued by DOPT both in letter and spirit, but till date few circles have not convened their pending DPCs for MACP to IP/ASP cadre viz.

Respected Sir,
We would like to bring your kind attention to Association’s letter of even number dated 10/12/2012 addressed to Secretary (Posts) wherein justice being denied to our members due to non convening of DPC for grant of timely MACP by few circles was brought to the notice of Directorate but unfortunately despite issue of reminders on 4/3/2013 and 22/4/2013 no attention seems to have been paid at Directorate level towards above said letters.
This Association would like to further bring to your kind notice that, DOPT has already issued crystal clear instructions under their OM No. 35034/3/2008-Estt(D) dated 19/5/2009 stating that cases maturing during the first half (April-September) of a particular financial year shall be taken up for consideration by the Screening Committee meeting in the first week of January. Similarly, the Screening Committee meeting in the first week of July of any financial year shall process the cases that would be maturing during the second-half (October-March) of the same financial year.
We therefore request your honour to kindly look into the matter personally and arrange to issue strict instructions to all circles to convene the pending DPCs at least by the end of this month.
Yours sincerely,

Holding of DPC for the promotion to the cadre of PS Gr. B for the year 2013-14.
Last year result of DPC for promotion to PS Gr. B cadre was released on 28/12/2012. To speed the DPC work and to convene the DPC for the promotion to PS Gr. B cadre for the year 2013-14 on time, Association has suggested Directorate to frame the time bound schedule for each circle for submission of documents at Directorate in person by the concerned officer which may help to reduce unnecessary correspondence work and result of DPC would be released much earlier. Therefore Directorate has prescribed the following circle wise time slot for submitting the documents of DPC for promotion to PS Gr. B for the year 2013-14. All Members, Office Bearers and Circle Secretaries are requested to keep the liaison with their circle and ensure submission of requisite documents to Directorate on time.

Letter to Secretary (Posts) i/c/w to finalise Recruitment Rules of PS Gr. B and allow ASPs to write Sr. PM Examination
No. CHQ/IPASP/CRC/2012 Dated : 15/7/2013.
This Association would like to further bring to your kind notice that, Recruitment Rules for Postal Superintendents notified in 1979 to fill up 100% posts through IP Line officials who have put in 5 years of service by seniority cum fitness through Departmental promotion committee. Department promulgated Revised Recruitment Rules on 11/3/1988 merging two erstwhile cadres viz ‘Postal Superintendent Gr. B and Postmaster Gr. B under nomenclature of PSS Group “B”. The total number of posts notified in RRs was 790. But 76 posts of Sr. Postmaster were not forming part to it although representation in the different rosters was given correctly to 866 posts. Due to the amalgamation of two cadres, the share to General line was distributed as under:
These Recruitment Rules were subsequently amended in the year 1994 vide Directorate memo No. 9-36/92-SPG dated 29/6/1994 and the method of filling the Posts was prescribed as
Department has created Postmaster Cadre vide memo No. 4-17/2008-SPB.II dated 22/11/2010, and 116 PS Gr. B Posts were carved for Senior Postmaster Cadre and framed RRs for Senior Postmaster Cadre vide memo No. 137-03/2009-SPB.II dated 9/9/2010. The method for filling up of the Posts was prescribed as:
It is further to state that as per the various Recruitment Rules the composition of Posts would be as under:

Subject : Quota of General Line in PS Group ‘B’ Examination … reg.
Ref. : Directorate No. A.34012/06/2011-DE dated 13th April, 2012.
Respected Madam,
IP/ASP Association intends to bring to your kind notice certain issues about holding of LDCE for the promotion to the PS Gr. B cadre. On introduction of Postmaster Cadre, 25% posts in Sr. Postmaster Cadre have been earmarked for HSG-I General Line Officials through promotion. Hence, out of 116 posts of Senior Postmaster, 29 posts have been given to General Line without reducing their share in PS Gr. B cadre. This has adversely affected the promotional avenues of IP/ASP cadre, and hence two Circle branches of this Association and 4 individuals approached to CAT to get relief for non-holding of Sr. PM Examination.
6% of 866 Posts
i.e 52 posts
|
From General Line Officials who have put in 5 years services in LSG and above through LDCE.

Department has created Postmaster Cadre vide memo No. 4-17/2008-SPB.II dated 22/11/2010, and 116 PS Gr. B Posts were carved for Senior Postmaster Cadre and framed RRs for Senior Postmaster Cadre vide memo No. 137-03/2009-SPB.II dated 9/9/2010. The method for filling up of the Posts was prescribed as:
25% of Posts

Through LDCE from IP Line officials in PB-2 9300-34800 with a Grade Pay of Rs. 4200/- who have put a 6 years regular services through LDCE.*

1. As per 1988 Recruitment Rules, total No. of Posts were 866
General Line
|
052 through LDCE
|

|

2. As per 1994 amended Recruitment Rules Total No. of Posts 866

|
052 through LDCE
|
IP Line (19%)
|
165 through LDCE
|
IP Line (75%)
|
649 through DPC
|
3. As per Sr. PM Recruitment Rules Total No. of Posts 116 of which 29 post of General line are to be filled through DPC and 87 post from IP line i.e 100% through LDCE. Apparently these 87 posts are required to be carved out from the 19 % quota meant for IP line.
General Line (25%)
|
29 through DPC
|
IP Line (75%)
|
87 through LDCE
|
4. Residuary PS Gr. B Total No. of Posts 866-116=750 that will form part of new recruitment rules for which revision of PS Group “B” will be required to reduce the number of posts from respective quota. As a natural justice and fair equality 116 posts should only be reduced from 6% equal to 29 post (General line) and 87 posts from 19% quota earmarked for IP line promoted through LDCE. This is so because as per postmaster recruitment rule 2010, all the 87 posts of Sr. Postmaster are to be filled from amongst the IP line having 6 year service only through Limited Departmental Examination and 29 posts from general line through DPC. There is no logic to reduce the quota from 75% quota i.e 649 post earmarked for filling through seniority cum fitness as no representation to senior most IPs/ASPs is given in Sr. Postmaster cadre through seniority cum fitness (see postmaster recruitment rule 2010).
This Association have severally requested Directorate to issue revised Recruitment Rules for PS Gr. B cadre to correct the anomaly of fixation of quota for PS Gr. B from IP Line Officials and General Line Officials by providing 97% vacancies to PS Gr. B from IP Line and 3% by promotion of HSG-I officials from General Line through a LDCE. It is understood that this file is under process. It is also learnt that department is allowing Circle Office and RMS staff to appear in PS Group “B” by allowing transfer of 10 posts to PS Group B fleet that will increase the total number of post to 760. In that event, the apportionment would be in a different equation and should be in the following manner for fair equality as also committed before Hon’ble CAT Chandigarh bench by Directorate not to reduce the posts from 75% quota i.e 649 posts. As such there should not be reduction of 87 Sr. Postmaster posts from 649 posts earmarked for promotion to IP/ASPs through seniority cum fitness particularly when no representation to this quota is given in Sr. Postmaster promotion through DPC. IPASP Association is accordingly demanding following sharing out:
General Line (3%)
|
023 through LDCE
|
IP Line (12%)
|
091 through LDCE
|
IP Line (85%)
|
646 through DPC
|
It is to further intimate that this Association has already submitted detailed proposal to Directorate under letter No. CHQ/PS Gr. B/2011 dated 4/7/2011 regarding distribution of quota under each category for implementation in the interest of both IP Line and General Line officials but despite series of reminders to Department nothing has been done till this date except inviting unnecessarily 6 CAT cases. It is not understood why ASPs are not eligible to write the Sr. Postmaster examination as both Posts relates to one and same Cadre i.e. IP cadre. It needs to be looked into.
It is therefore requested your honour to kindly look into the matter personally and issue necessary instructions to SPG DIVISION to finalise the Recruitment Rules of PS Gr. B cadre accordingly by reducing shares from each quota as proposed above also. In the mean time in order to give effect to Postmaster Recruitment Rule 2010, it is suggested that junior 29 PS Group B official recruited against 52 posts and 87 junior most IP line officials recruited through LDCE may immediately be ordered to post on the posts of Sr. Postmaster. One time option from others as per Recruitment Rules-2010 may be obtained. ASPs may also be allowed to appear in Sr. Postmaster examination. This will mitigate the repeated court cases also.
With profound regards,
Yours sincerely,
