GRAMIN DAK SEVAKS – REVISION OF WAGES AND SERVICE CONDITIONS SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN 7THCPC

WE DON’T WANT SEPARATE COMMITTEE

JOIN INDEFINITE STRIKE FROM 2015 MAY 6TH

In the discussion held on 05.02.2015 with the Postal Joint Council of Action (NFPE, FNPO, AIPEU-GDS (NFPE) and NUGDS), Secretary, Department of Posts has assured that the demand for inclusion of GDS under 7th CPC will again be referred to the Government by the Postal Board. If all the Postal Federations and Unions/Associations join together and go for an indefinite strike from May 6th as decided by the PJCA, Government will be compelled to include GDS under 7th CPC.

But the recognised GDS Union is demanding separate committee and conducting separate strike, breaking the unity of five lakhs Postal employees. Separate strike for a separate committee will weaken the demand for grant of civil servant status to GDS and will help the Government only.

When NFPE, FNPO, AIPEU-GDS (NFPE), NUGDS, Confederation of Central Government Employees & Workers, JCM National Council staff side including Railways & Defence are demanding inclusion of GDS under 7th CPC, why recognised GDS Union alone is demanding separate committee and conducting separate strike. Gramin Dak Sevaks should understand the hidden agenda of the recognised GDS union and defeat the demand for separate Committee.

All Gramin Dak Sevaks are requested to join the joint indefinite strike of Postal Joint Council of Action (NFPE, FNPO, AIPEU-GDS (NFPE) & NUGDS) from 2015 May 6th. Our demand is inclusion of GDS in 7th CPC and grant of civil servant status. We don’t want a separate committee..

Yours fraternally,

Hon’ble CAT, Cuttack Bench ( O A No. 1196 of  2004 and O A No. 1213 to 1221 of 2004 ) uphold the order of Hon’ble CAT, Madras Bench (O A No. 679 of 2003)


Postal Directorate directs Chief PMG, Odisha Circle for implementation vide its letter No. 93-13/2012-SPB-II, dated 23rdJanuary, 2015

Odisha Circle implemented the order vide its Memo No. ST/26-15/2013, dated 04.02.2015

Dear Comrades,

The Hon’ble CAT, Madras Bench in its order dated 19.03.2004 passed in O A No. 679 of 2003 (K Perumal and M Ramamswamy vrs. D G, Department of Posts and Other) observed, “.... action of the respondents is totally illegal and is incorrect. They cannot change the nomenclature, viz. ‘promotions’ made already to that of ‘financial up-gradations’ and deny the consequential benefits .......  In the matters relating to seniority, settled issues should not be disturbed/disorted after a long laps of time ..... the contention of the respondents  that the promotions given earlier  are to be construed  only as financial up-gradations  in our considered view cannot be accepted  as the same is unreasonable and such an argument goes against the letter and spirit of the communications issued by the respondents themselves......”


The Hon’ble CAT, Cuttack Bench in its order dated 23.07.2008 passed in O A No. 1196 of  2004 and O A No. 1213 to 1221 of 2004 filed by Brahmananda Lenka and others directed the respondents to consider the case of the Applicants within  a period of 90 days for grant of consequential benefits with promotion to next higher grade, namely HSG-II and HSG-I in the light of the decision of the Madras Bench of the tribunal which has been confirmed by the Hon’ble High Court of Madras.

The Order dated 23.07.2008 of Hon’ble CAT, Cuttack was subsequently upheld by the Hon’ble High Court of Odisha vide its Order dated 17.01.2012 which was examined by the Department  in consultation with the Department of Personnel & Training  and Department of Legal Affairs, Ministry of Law and Justice and finally it has been decided to implement the same in respect of the applicants of the above O A only.


Subsequently, the Postal Directorate, vide its letter No. 93-13/2012-SPB-II, dated 23rd January, 2015 directed the Chief Postmaster General, Odisha Circle to implement the above CAT’s order as specific to the applicants of the O A.

Accordingly, Circle Office, Bhubaneswar vide its Memo No. ST/26-15/2013, dated 04.02.2015 promoted 5 officials (the applicants) notionally to LSG, HSG-II and HSG-I and allotted 3 officials to Berhampur Region and 2 officials to Samablpur Region. Consequently the officials promoted notionally as such were posted by respective Regional heads as follows.
