Sub : Memorandum for Postmaster/Supervisor pay upgradation in 7 CPC
-*-

            With reference to 7 CPC report, this is to bring to your kind notice that 7 CPC has ignored completely the newly created Postmaster Cadre and supervisory structure in operative side.  It is to intimate that IPO and LSG cadre official were in the same pay structure during the 4th CPC.  Though the recruitment procedure changed to one cadre the duties and responsibilities of Postmaster/Supervisor have enormously increased with introduction of computerisation in the post offices.  It is felt by the cadre that neither department nor CPC has taken any consideration for the changes being made in the department.

            Though the department has agreed for cadre restructuring after the 6th CPC, the recommendations agreed and approved by unions/associations have remained in liquid state till date and no action has been initiated in this direction before 7 CPC,  neither the department nor 7 CPC has recommended any revision of pay structure for Postmaster Cadre/Supervisors.

            The 7 CPC has recommended 5400 grade pay to Group B cadre and forgot to note that the Sr Postmaster also belongs to Group B and his/her grade pay must be fixed at 5400 instead of 4800. 

            In a broad sense, the officials wait for the CPCs to project their issues to Government through departments to improve their pay structures/promotions with respect to the change of work brought in the departments during the previous CPC to present CPC.  Though the department of posts has increased and introduced many products and changed the savings bank structure for last 20 years, no improvement has

been brought in the promotion and pay structure in the operative side.  The operative staff have felt that some changes would definitely come in the post offices with the introduction of Postmaster Cadre in their promotions and pay structure.  The Postmaster Cadre has definitely improved and uplifted the post offices when compared before the introduction of the cadre and failed to gain anything to project their achievements due to lack of interest in the cadre in the existing unions. 

            This association feels that this is the only department where there is no differentiation has been made between the previous cadre to promotion cadre in the pay structure but increases the responsibilities enormously for the officials and, hence, lot of promotions have been denied by the officials and remained vacant for years and officials are not willing to take up the promotion position due to lack of charm in occupying the promoted post. 

This association salutes to the person who has thought of introducing the postmaster cadre to fill up atleast 1/3rd of postmaster posts through direct examination to improve the post offices and promotion avenues to Postal Assistants.  It is requested to continue the same spirit and grow up the brain child, postmaster cadre of department and request the following grade pay structure to postmasters/supervisors to uplift the morality in the officials:

Cadre
Grade Pay
Remarks
Sr Postmaster
5400
Recommended by 7 CPC for Group B
Postmaster Gr III/HSG I
4800

Postmaster Gr II/HSG II
4600

Postmaster Gr I/LSG
4200


With profound regards,


Yours sincerely,

GRANT OF TA & TRANSIT (TA & TP) TO OFFICIALS TRANSFERRED ON COMPLETION OF TENURE TO THE PLACE OF THEIR CHOICE . A proposal on grant TA and transit to officials who are transferred on completion of tenure to the place of their choice was under consideration in this Directorate for sometime past.      SR-114 governs TA on transfer distinguishes between transfer for public convenience and transfer on own request.  Although transfer on completion of tenure in one office has not been specifically referred to in this rule, yet the transfer on completion of tenure is a transfer for public convenience.  On completion of tenure, the official has to be transferred out for operational reasons.  Therefore, such a transfer is mandatory, while posting to a place of choice is secondary and subject to public convenience.  In view of this posting to a place of choice after completion of full tenure may not be normally termed as a "transfer on own request" under SR-114.      It
