Sir/Madam,

                Though the ban on recruitment has been lifted three years back, no recruitment has taken place in the PAO. Lack of focused attempt to gear up the process of recruitment is coming in the way of filling up of vacancies. This is having telling effect on the office functioning. Mounting arrears and manifold increase in the work burden is playing havoc with the existing employees. The cadre strength of MTS, LDC and J.A. is depleting alarmingly affecting the quality of work. The constant threat of imposing contributory responsibility on the innocent officials working in the Postal Accounts for the frauds committed in the field units is creating insecurity among the officials and leading to the demoralization.

            Though clear cut guidelines are available, recruitment in the MTS cadre has not yet been initiated. It is made amply clear that 75% of the MTS vacancies have to be filled up through the Employment Exchange, sparing the 25% for casual workers, if available. In spite of the existence of all these instructions, recruitment is not taking place on the expected lines.  It was agreed by the Secretary, Department of Post during the negotiations on the strike charter of demands to take action on priority to fill up the vacancies in the PAOs. Yet, no such priority action is visible in the PAO. Though conversion of vacancies from one quota to another is permitted to augment the DR strength, no such proposal has emanated.

            Hence, it is decided by the Central Head Quarters of this Association to observe “Call Attention Day” on 10-04-2012 to draw the attention of the local authorities on the vital issue of recruitment.  This General Body calls your attention on the urgent need to fill up the vacancies relating to 2009-10, 2010-11 and     2011-12 in MTS, LDC and Junior Accountant cadres without further loss of time.

            Thanking you,

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Yours faithfully
