Tribunal, Pr. Bench, in OA No. 2124/2011 upheld by Hon’ble
High Court, filed by AIPAEA – Request – Regarding.
Respected Madam/Sir,
I humbly
submit the following facts for your kind consideration and immediate favourable
orders.
I am
working as Senior Accountant in the Postal Accounts Office, _______Circle. I
have been promoted from the lower cadre to the post of LDC and later became the
Junior Accountant and Senior Accountant. As the junior is drawing more pay than
the senior in the Senior Accountant Cadre because of the financial
up-gradations under ACP/Modified ACP, the All India Postal Accounts Employees
Association represented by its President Shri. S. Santosh kumar filed O.A.
referred above and the Hon’ble Pr. CAT, Delhi gave direction to step up the Pay
of the senior Senior Accountant. The PA Wing has asked all the PAOs to
implement the judgment by making payment on or before 28th March
2014. But, till date no payment has been made in ________ PAO.
I submit
that I am the member of the Applicant Association and I am covered by the
judgment of the Hon’ble Pr. CAT, New Delhi. I am the promote LDC who have been
subsequently promoted as Junior Accountant/Senior Accountant. It is learnt that
the clarification issued by the PA Wing vide its letter no.
33(3)/10/PA-Admin.I/ 1509 to 1524 dated 19th March 2014 is speaking
about the stepping up of pay of those Senior Accountants only who entered the
Department as LDCs and subsequently promoted as JA/SA.
In this
connection, I submit that, the Applicant Association has sought a direction
from the Hon’ble Tribunal to Respondents for grant of stepping up pay of all
Senior Accountants on par with Senior Accountants who are junior to the former
in the cadre of Senior Accountant. The Hon’ble Tribunal adjudicated on this and
directed that all such seniors are entitled to step up their pay as a general
rule as and when any junior gets his pay fixed in a pay scale higher to them on
account of grant of ACP.
Hence,
without making any discrimination on account of my entry grade, I request you
to kindly cause action to step up my pay on par with that of my junior
including all the Allowances excluding the special pay and personal pay in the
Senior Accountant Cadre. I also request you to cause action to make payment of
arrears on this account at the earliest.
Thanking
you,
Yours faithfully,

Circular 74/14 Date:
28-04-14
Dear Comrades,
May Day Greetings to you all. AIPAEA salute all those
comrades who sacrificed their “Todays” for our “Tomorrows”. Hoist the May Day
flag on 01-05-14 and pay homage to the Martyrs. Hold lunch-hour meetings and
explain the significance of the May Day and its relevance in the present
circumstances. A note on May Day is published in our Blog separately. That can
be used for circulation.
AIPAEA
Chennai on Agitation path: Due to the
autocratic attitude of the GM (Finance) Postal Accounts, Chennai, the congenial
atmosphere in the office has been vitiated. Her penchant for unilateral
decisions and least respect for democratic norms and dialogue have led to the present
situation. This is not for the first time it is happening. Her earlier stints
as DA(P) Chennai and Bangalore was also turbulent and forced employees to go on
agitation. Now, about 100 employees of Chennai PAO are served with Rule-16
Charge Sheets on flimsy ground. Our comrades at Chennai started massive demonstrations
against the GM. CHQ already dashed letters to the Member Finance, Advisor
Finance and DDG (PAF) for immediate intervention. For the letters written by
CHQ on this issue, please visit our Blog.
CHQ directs all units of AIPAEA to send Saving Grams
by 02-05-14 by speed post protesting against the highhandedness of GM (Finance)
Postal Accounts Chennai. The Saving Gram should be addressed to:
1. Ms. Annie
Moraes,
Member Finance,
Department of Tele Communications,
Sanchar Bhavan,
New Delhi-110 001
2. Shri.
Rajnish Kumar
Dy. Director General, (PAF),
Department of Posts,
Dak Bhavan,
Parliament Street,
New Delhi –
110 001.
SAVING GRAM
Date:
AIPAEA
……………………(Name of the Circle) express its anguish over the shocking act of
issuance of charge sheets to 100 officials en masse by G.M (Finance) Postal
Accounts, Chennai. This Association condemns this act of highhandedness and
gross misuse of powers. This is not the first time for her to resort to such
anti-employee actions. Her aversion to dialogue with Staff Side is well known.
Her actions as Director in her previous stint at Bangalore and Chennai PAOs
forced the employees to launch strong protest agitations resulting in the
intervention from the Highest Authority. This Association strongly protests the
arbitrary actions of GM Finance, Postal Accounts, Chennai and request your kind
immediate intervention in favour of the employees to undo the injustice and
restore the congenial atmosphere in PAO Chennai.
(Circle
Secretary)
_____________________________________________________________________
Campaign for
Membership enrollment: I congratulate
all the Circle leadership for their earnest campaign for enrollment of the
members and efforts to strengthen the AIPAEA. Very encouraging reports received
from Kapurthala and Lucknow. Now, only a couple of days are left for submission
of the Authorization Letters to the DA (P)’s concerned. Ensure to take special
interest in this regard and inform developments to the CHQ.
Stepping up
Case: The clarifications issued by
the Directorate on 09-04-2014 have to be complied by all the PAOs without any
further doubts. Clarifications are very clear.
The contempt case is coming up for hearing on 06-05-2014. Implementation
process is going on in Hyderabad, Bangalore, Trivandrum, and Nagpur. Reports
are being received from other units that the DA(P)’s concerned are not taking
proper steps to start the process of payment in this regard. Election schedule
may be one of the reasons for this. However, Circle Secretaries should take up
the matter with the Authorities and see that the payment is made by 06-05-2014.
Immediately inform the CHQ by SMS the following
information so as to enable to feed our Advocate:
1.
Whether the
process of stepping up of pay started and beneficiaries identified as per the revised clarifications issued by the PA Wing?
2.
Whether Payments
made?
3.
To how many
officials payments are made?
Senior
Accountants who entered the Department as Gr.D /Sorter: The clarification issued by the PA wing is not in
tune with the spirit of the judgment. The matter has already been taken up and
CHQ will ensure that these comrades will get the benefit of stepping up
judgment. CHQ has prepared the draft representation to be submitted by the
individuals and sent to the units by email for necessary action. I am
publishing such representation separately in our Blog. It should be ensured
that all affected comrades submit the representations. Some vested interests
are spreading rumors against AIPAEA in this regard. AIPAEA will never
compromise on the interests of the employees. We have taken all such steps to
protect the interest of such comrades.
Cadre Restructuring: The file was received back from DOP&T with some queries. PA Wing is answering those doubts and will send back the file to the DOP&T.
SA JA
promotion case: The case is coming up
for hearing on 29-04-2014. Let’s hope for positive results.

the 7th CPC has been published in the website of the Confederation.
Please go through and give suggestions and your opinions. CHQ will submit its
viewpoints in due course.
NFPE Federal

Federal Executive meeting on 01-06-2014 at New Delhi to review and to take
future course of action. G.S. will attend the said meeting.

HOIST MAY DAY FLAG - HOLD MAY DAY MEETINGS ON 01-05-2014
LET’S CELEBRATE THE ‘MAY DAY’ IN A GRAND
MANNER!
Dear Comrades,
The voice, which was
strangulated and silenced long long ago in the distant city of Chicago, is now
echoing in the hearts and throats of millions of workers and common people
across the continents, manifesting the burning desire to fight for the rights.
The struggle for ‘working hours’, which shook the world, transcended and
transformed into a symbol of struggle for establishment of egalitarian society
and fighting spirit of working class across the nations. May Day beckons us to
get inspired and imbibe that spirit of struggle and sacrifice!
The natural resources,
the collective property of mankind, are being swallowed by the capitalists with
the aid and abetment of Ruling Class in the guise of Globalization and Economic
development. They have engulfed the permanent jobs and are extracting the work
from the manual labour in the name of Contractorisation and casualization at
dead cheap rates. The sweat of farmers and workers has no value in the eyes of
these exploiters. The Gobble’s campaign that there is no substitute for
Capitalism has had its great ill effect on the workers and employees!
Parallel campaign that the Socialism has failed and that it is not
visible even in the distant vicinity is being thrust into the psyche of the
general public.
We have to
recapitulate the famous verses of Sri Sri, the great peoples’ poet of this century, which are to be engraved
in ebony permanently. “The
Kingdoms built on earth, the artificial Statutes enacted by the Monarchs and by
the egoistic, have crumbled like a palace of playing cards, with the tsunami of
forces of working class, far and near” This reminds every one that any system
which is inimical and exploitative is bound to crash and collapse.
The motive and end of
Capital is to earn profit. The capitalism will never hesitate to denude the Mother
Earth and green nature for the sake of profit. The un-quenching greed of
capitalists for profit has become hazardous to the environment resulting in the
pollution of air and water bodies. The global –warming is causing disorders in
environment and, in effect, posing danger to the very existence of mankind. The
changes in the environment due to pollution are pushing the agriculture and the
farmers into catastrophe.
The accumulation of
wealth in a few hands, the growth of corporate sector and the fall in the
purchasing capacity of the workers and employees are the indication of the
growing unrest and degradation of the society. Education and medical facilities
are unreachable to the common man. A place to dwell in is still a distant dream
to so many employees and workers.
At this juncture, the Central Government employees should discharge their duty
with full awareness and understanding. To regain the lost pension right, to
retain the health facilities, to ensure the periodical wage revision for every
five years, to get the DA merger, to achieve status to the Grameen Dak Sevaks,
etc., the Central Government employees have no other alternative but to tread
the path of struggle in the coming days on the face of adversarial political
and economic policies.
Oppose the neo-liberal
economic policies, which intend to privatize every Sector and mortgage the
future of employees and common people to the Capitalists. As enlightened
sections of the society we have to pin down and expose the deceit perpetrated
on the people and Working Class in the name of Globalization and Development. With
all the unity, awareness and conscientiousness, we the Central Government
employees, should resist and stop these anti-employee and anti-people policies.
Let’s take pledge on this May Day to strive hard for Better life and brighter tomorrow for
all and to demand our rightful share as a stakeholder in the process of
development, defeating the nefarious designs of the protagonists of neo-liberal
economic policies.
With Revolutionary Greetings!

GM(FINANCE) POSTAL ACCOUNTS CHENNAI HARASSING THE STAFF - EMPLOYEES ON AGITATION MODE

Autocratic functioning of GM(Finance) Postal Accounts,
Chennai – En masse issue of Charge sheets to the Staff –
Immediate intervention – Request – Reg.
Chennai – En masse issue of Charge sheets to the Staff –
Immediate intervention – Request – Reg.
Respected Madam,
I would like to invite your kind attention to the
plight of the Chennai PAO Staff under the undemocratic and autocratic
functioning of the GM (Finance, Postal Accounts). It is shocking to know that
about 100 employees working in PA sections have been served with charge sheets
under Rule 16 of CCS (CCA) Rules. This en masse punitive action on the dictate
of the GM (Finance) violates all canons of administrative prudence and justice.
The employees are on agitation over this issue. The Saving Gram signed by
AIPAEA and BPAOEA, Chennai and sent to you is enclosed for your ready
reference.
The Staff working in the PA sections have been asked after
completing the Classified Abstract in PA sections to go and feed the Circle
Abstract in Book section in addition to the compilation work in PA sections.
This diktat was issued in the month of February 2014 i.e. fag end of the
closure of the Financial Year. This changeover was never discussed with the
Staff Side. No thought was given to the adequacy of the infrastructure; never
bothered to impart adequate training to the Staff in COMPACT; no efforts were
made to motivate the Staff and of course, it is the least priority for the GM
(Finance).
The Staff Side pleaded with her not to insist to
change the working system at the fag end of the Financial Year and they are
ready to cooperate with her to adopt to the new work pattern in the new
Financial Year and they requested her to provide sufficient systems and
training so that the change over can be brought smoothly. But, all the
pleadings went in vain.
The pen chant of the GM (Finance) Chennai to run the
roughshod is well known. The specific clarifications issued by the PA Wing on
the forwarding of applications were treated with all the disrespect and not
followed leading to the ruination of the careers of the employees who wish to
appear for the competitive examinations.
In another latest incident, the GM (Finance) ordered
recovery of TA/DA of the entire IA party as; the report of the IA party is not
to the liking of the GM (Finance). This is the first time in the annals of the
IA parties to face such ignominy in the hands of the Head of the Office. The
responsibility as the Head of the Office to strengthen the IA parties by
providing full pledged teams, by imparting periodical training and by providing
the latest Rulings on the subject are never felt. But, to punish and humiliate
is the instantaneous reaction from the GM (Finance).
After lifting the ban on recruitment in the year 2009,
the Chennai PAO has not filled up the vacancies. The office of Staff Selection
Commission is situated in Chennai itself. Yet, no intensive efforts are there
to get the new recruits. On the other hand, strangely the LDC dossiers received
from SSC were returned back on flimsy grounds.
Impulsive decisions of the GM (Finance) made the
Administration casualty. The present act of issuing charge sheets en masse,
itself proves the administrative failure of the GM (Finance), Chennai PAO. Lack
of democratic content in the decision making will harm the interests of the
Organization, especially at this point of time when the Department is at the
threshold of technological changes.
Hence, I am to request your immediate intervention to
undo the injustice caused to the employees and to bring back the congenial
atmosphere by restoring the employer and employee relationship.
With Regards,
Yours faithfully,
(T.SATYANARAYANA)
General Secretary
