Dear Brothers/ Sisters,As was decided in New Delhi Federal

J adhav, Maharashtra Circle Secretary, BPEAPostman & MTS & P.S. Kadam, Circle Secretary,Foreign Post.

In the meeting several issues were dis-cussed in three sessions of four hours each. Inthe reporting session every General secretarieshave reported about the membership drive, elec-tion programme of Circles and schedules of theirdue All India Conference. In the Circles like Punjab, U.P. Karnataka, Kerala , Rajasthan and

J harkhand, the Circle conferences of BP-III, BP-IV and GDS were convened successfully. The M.P.& Orissa Circle has convened R-III and R-IV Circleconferences . The Haryana & Bihar Circle haveconvened BPAOEA Circle Conference. The All In-

dia Conference of Administrative union and GDSUnion was convened successfully. It can be con-cluded that almost all circles have updated theirconferences and now it is the turn of Circles toconvene their Divisional Conference in time.Regarding opening of New Divisions, it has beeninformed that two options are available. First oneis to make authorized office bearer in that Divisionto submit the forms in the month of April or duringre-verification process. The 2nd one is to formadhoc body and then convene regular electionwithin three month of time. As regard to Divisionsin which we could not form a Divisional Secretaryor authorized office bearer, the General Secre-tary or Circle Secretary can submit the attestedmembership forms to the Divisional heads/ Re-gional Heads/ Circle Heads.

It has also been reported that the All In-dia Conference of BP-III, BR-III & BR-IV will becompleted upto December, 2013. Positively.

The Secretary General has reported allthe events, the PRAVASH and the conferencesattended by him during the period October 2012to J une, 2013. A Strike notice was also served on29-01-2013. The department has issued advisoryto postpone the programme and informed that in-formal meeting will be arranged in March, 2013.

The Strike was postpone on this communication.In the meeting it has been decided to choose ap-propriate time to give the notice for Dharna do not

Pradarshan or Strike in the event of Departmentnot giving any informal meeting or look over theissues urgently. The DDG (Estt.) has informed thatthe meeting will be arranged shortly in the lastweek of the J uly.

I am sorry to disclose that General Sec-retaries have reported about membership drive invague manner without any proof of it. This tradi-tion has become a custom of BPEF affiliatedunions to act casually over the important and stra-tegic issues. For these reasons they took no cog-nizance of the decisions taken in such type highlevel meetings. The decisions taken at Hyderabad

meeting, New Delhi Meetings have not been con-veyed to lower office bearers even through circulars.For these reasons the pity financial andOrganisational situation of BPEF arises. Report-ing without any proof and without any real actionis deplorable on the ground that lot of expenditure


10/16


becomes waisted. The Bharatiya unions becomeelement of mockery at the eyes of others whoread these circulars.

The Treasurer report placed in the meet-ing very well depicts the story of reluctance and

irresponsibility from the part of unions as they aregetting membership subscription by way of sal-ary deduction . It is sorry to state that we are notable to pay even petty Honoruium and licnece feeof about two thousand per month. Water & Electbill of Rs. 3500/- per month and News paper tele-phone bill of about two thousand per month . Hav-ing no option left to the Federation it has decidedto impose levy over the unions as below so thatexpenditure to be incurred up to October, 2013may be met. GDS Union 20000/-, BP-III, 20000/- , BP-IV, 8000/-, BR-III, 4000/- BR-IV, 3000/-BPAOEA Rs. 4000/- BP Civil Wing Rs. 1000/-Administrative Union 1000/- of Rs. 60000/-This levymust be paid before Federal Council so that theFederation could not feel pity in meeting out ex-penses.

Matter of Election dispute in Kerala CircleBP-IV union has been reported by convenor Keralacircle Shri C.M. Pillai the same has been handedover to General Secretary, BP-IV for resolving theissue amicably. It has been advised that in allmatters of election dispute, the decision of BPEFwill be final.

In the last Shri B.K. Rai, Vice present

Central BMS and Prabhari Industrial units havetaken note of all the discussions and told that theunions are not hospitals were every ill comes andlater on goes away when treatment is over. It is afamily and a developed system having well de-fined constitution and ethics to follow exists. Headvised that as per the BMS directions , The Fed-eration , the All India Union and the Circle unionsmust have core group to decide the issues . Forthe All India Unions President , Secretary, Org.Secretary , Secretary General & Treasurer will formthe core group. Similarly for Circle unions Presi-dent , Secretary, Treasurer, AGS of All India Union

and convener of BPEF will form the core group. Atthe Federation level President/ Working Presi-dent, Secretary General, Treasurer, Org. Secre-tary, and Prabhari industrial unit of BMS will formthe Core group. This core group must report to theHigher level for the activities about the Organiza-

tional and Agitational programmes. In the case oflaxity from the part of All India Unions, Circle Unionsare Divisional Unions the action will be taken bythe core groups accordingly. It is to be taken inmind that as per the constitution of unions theGeneral Secretary of the unions is the Adminis-trative Head of that union. Similarly SecretaryGeneral is the administrative Head for all the mat-ter of affiliated unions. Similarly every unions areadvised to give full charge to the AGS of the unionof the adjoining Circles to Circle in which he re-sides, in All India conference itself for the pur-pose of easily administering the membership /union activities and election process.

Since the Govt. is deducting the unionsubscription and remitting it to office bearers,therefore, the financial irregularity is not simple

one but it is a financial fraud towards organisaitonwhich attrach disciplinary action against the faultyoffice bearers.

If the core group of All India unions andits CWC find it fit to amend its constitution so thatthe union subscription deducted at Division/Branches may be remitted to the CHQ directly bythe Administration then they are free to make suchamendment in constitution. The General Secre-tary, BP Civil Wing Shri Balram Pandey has givenhas consent to do so in his constitution.

As regarding Special Donation by unions/ Federation, Receipt Book must contain three

least. One should be handed over to the donor.Second one should be retained by the collectorand third one should be retained by the BPEF orAll India Union as the case may be.

He strongly supported that if the BPEF isshort of fund for carrying out its daily union activ-ity then it must raise the Special Fund with thehelp of Federation office bearers / CHQ office Bear-ers of the union. This issue was supported by ShriR.N. Navghar and others and has advised thatReceipt book of Rs. 1100/- per Head may beprinted for collecting Donation to BPEF and bedistributed to all active office bearers. Similarly

during All India Conference of unions Rs. 1100/-per office bearers may be collected at the confer-ence place itself.

GOVERNMENT ALLOTS RS 1,300 CR

TO POST BANKNEW DELHI: The expenditure department has de-cided to sanction Rs 1,300 crore to the proposed

Post Bank of India to meet its capital requirementseven as the department of financial services (DFS) -the wing in the finance ministry that deals with state-run banks and their poliiies - chose to stay away fromthe issue.

The proposal's backing by the expenditure fi-nance commission and its subsequent green lightby finance minister P Chidambaram is seen asthe official go-ahead by the finance ministry, ignoringthe DFS's stance. The DFS position is seen as thefirst instance of the agency not backing the PostBank's plan, which officers in the department haveprivately mocked at

"They think they can use the postal deposit model

for their banking foray. Nothing in their plan seems tobe clear. Banking isn't easy," said an officer, who didnot wish to be identified. In fact, a strong Post Bank isseen to be the biggest challenge to existing publicsector banks, including State Bank of India, whichcontrols 70% of the banking business in the country.SBI, the largest lender, has a little less than 15,000

branches, while there are over 1.5 lakh post officesacross the country.

Although Post Bank does not intend to open abank branch in each post office, the plan is to usepostmen to meet the financial inclusion goal. Secre-

tary (posts) P Gopinath refused to speak to TOI de-spite several attempts.

According to the plan, Post Bank will have50 branches in the first year, which will be increasedto 150 by the fifth year. The branches will be locatedin select Head Post Offices in Tier-1-4 centres andselect Sub-Post Offices in Tier-5-6 centres.

To meet RBI norms, the postal department pro-poses to set up a new entity - Post Bank of India - thatwill have an independent board and separate opera-tions. Apart from independent directors, the boardwill have representatives from the finance ministryand the postal department. Separate recruitment hasbeen planned to have specialist bankers.

While converting the entire postal network wouldhave meant a capital requirement of over Rs 60,000crore, by setting up a special entity, the fund require-ment has been reduced. This, officers said, will alsohelp create a more focused strategy.Source : THE TIMES OF INDIA dated 22/07/2013

POSTMASTERS CADREConsequent on granting permission by the DOP&Tto fill up HSG-I vacancies as per existing recruit-ment rules, HSG-II officials with three year serviceare considered for HSG-I promotion. But the Post-master Grade II officials with minimum five yearsservice are only considered for PM Grade-III pro-

motion as per the Postmaster Grade RecruitmentRules approved by DOP&T. This DISCRIMINATIONwas brought to the notice of the Directorate byBPEF earlier. It is informed that Directorate hasalready called for the detailed particulars, fromCircles. On receipt of information the case will besubmitted to DOP&T for RELAXATION of five yearsto three year at par with HSG II officials.

SLP (Civil) 23055/2013 filed by Union of India

against Delhi High Court judgement in pre-2006pensioners casein WP 1535/2012 upholding theCAT PB judgement and Delhi High Court judge-ment. The above SLP came up for hearing on 29/7/2013 and the apex court dismissed the SLP onthe same day.

Revision of OTA Rate case fil led at

CAT Madras Bench dismissedOne of the service Association has filled CAT

case in Madras Bench in connection with the revi-

sion of Overtime Allowance . Hon'ble CAT MadrasBench in their judgement dated 9th April, 2013 statedthat "prior to 5th CPC all Non Gazetted employees inreceipt of monthly Basic pay of upto Rs. 2200/- wereentitled to OTA for performing duties beyond the des-ignated working hours. The 5th CPC had recom-mended abolition of OTA for all categories except theStaff Car Driver , Operational Staff and Insustrial em-ployees . But, it recommended that the staff deployedon weekly off days should be given a compensatoryleave rather than any cash compensation in the formof OTA or otherwise . However, the said recommen-dations were not accepted and status-quo was main-tained as per the recommendations of the 4th CPC.

It is also seen that the rate of OTA fixed and the ceilingby the Nodal Ministry viz. Department of Personneland Training, consequent on the recommendationof 4th CPC have not been revised by the said Ministry. As rightly contended by the respondents, unless thesaid Nodal Ministry approves the proposal sent bythe Department of Posts for revision of OTA rate, theyare not in position to revise the OTA rates on its ownand it is a policy decision of the Government. In otherwords, the Department posts cannot take an inde-pendent decision on the issue raised by the respon-dents".

sociations have been demanding for the merger of50% DA with Basic Pay and the constitution of 7thPay Commission.

10 years between two successive Pay Commission.DA to central government employees is revised twicea year, with effect from J anuary 1 and J uly 1, calcu-lated on the basis of percentage increase in all IndiaConsumer Price Index for Industrial Workers.

ing for Rs.3500- in the ensuing meeting:After clearance of the Departments pro-

posal of Rs.3500- bonus ceiling to GDS by the Min-istry of Finance during 3rd week of August, the pro-cess for cabinet approval has started and a note hasbeen submitted by the Department to the Min. of Fi-nance to submit for further approval in the Cabinetmeeting.

IF NO RAISE IN RATESAccording to a press release issued today by theLabour Bureau, Ministry of Labour & Employment theAll-India CP I-IW for J uly, 2013 rose by 4 points andstands at 235. The largest upward pressure to thechange in current index came from Food group con-tributing 1.99 percentage points to the total change.At item level, Rice, Fish Fresh, Goat Meat, Milk, On-ions, Chillies Green, Potato, Tomato & other Veg-etables. Electricity Charges, Firewood, Bus Fare,

Petrol, etc. are responsible for the rise in index. How-ever, this was compensated to some extent byGroundnut Oil, Primary and secondary School Feesputting downward pressure on the index.100% DA hikeEven if no increase for the next 5 months, the calcu-lated Dearness Allowance for Central GovernmentEmployees and Dearness Relief for CG Pensionerconfirmed to be 98% from J anuary, 2014. Under nor-mal index changes, DA/DR from J an 2014 may touchor cross 100%.
