Sub: Letter writing campaign to DG Posts demanding Grade pay Rs 4600 to IPs –reg.

Dear friends,

Immediately after the release of 6th CPC, Our Association demanded higher grade pay of Rs 4600 to IP, Rs 4800 to ASP and Rs 5400 to PS Group B. The matter is still pending with Anomaly Committee for more than one year. During discussion, concerned officers in the Postal Directorate assured that the Grade Pay would be revised upwardly as soon as the Grade Pay of analogous cadre in other ministries/departments is revised.

Now the grade pay of Inspectors of CBDT/CBEC and Assistants in CSS has been revised from Rs 4200 to Rs 4600 vide Ministry of Finance Memo. No. F.No. 1/1/2008-IC dt.13.11.2009 and 16.11.2009. Referring this, I have already submitted letter No. CHQ/IASP/SCPC dated 16.11.2009 to Postal Directorate demanding higher Grade Pay Rs 4600 to Inspector Posts and a reminder was issued on 14.12.2009 besides meeting personally and had discussion with Director General (Posts) and DDG(Estt). But the file is not moving in the expected speed.

Enough time has already been given. We cannot prolong our patience furthermore. It is the time to react. Each one of us has to exert pressure on the Department. Then only we can get justice.

Please go through the following instructions carefully and do it immediately:

(1) Every IP and ASP has to write a letter to DG individually with a copy to me.
(2) Text letter is given below. Take print out. Two copies should be prepared.
(a) One should be sent to the following address:
Ms. Radhika Doraiswamy, Director General, Department of Posts, Dak Bhawan, New Delhi-110001
(b) Another copy of this letter may be sent to the following address:
Shri. S.Samuel, General Secretary, AIAIASP, No.12, P&T Colony, Civil Lines, New Delhi-110054.
(3) All Circle Secretaries and CHQ Office bearers are requested to personally request all members both IP & ASPs to send this letter.
(4) All IP & ASPs are requested to pass on this message to all members and ensure that this letter is dispatched immediately as instructed above.
(5) The letter writing campaign should be completed by 10.1.2010 positively.

Yours sincerely,

S.Samuel
General Secretary

No.CHQ/IASP/SCPC date: 14th December 2009

To
Director General
Department of Posts
Dak Bhawan
New Delhi-110001

Respected Madam,

Sub: Request for upward revision of grade pay to the cadre of Inspector Posts from Rs 4200 to Rs 4600.

1. I request your kind attention to my earlier letter of even No. dated 16.11.2009.With reference to the demand of this Association regarding upgradation of grade pay of Inspector Posts from Rs 4200 to Rs 4600, I further submit the following three Memos. with relevant facts and justification for favoruable action:

(i) Ministry of Finance Memo. No. F.No. 1/1/2008-IC dt.13th November 2009
(ii) Ministry of Finance Ministry Memo. No. 1/1/2008-IC dated 16th November 2009.
(iii) Ministry of External Affairs Memo No. Q/PC/682/2/2009 dated 07.12.09

2. In Memo. No. F.No. 1/1/2008-IC dt.13th November 2009 of Ministry of Finance, the Grade pay relating to posts in pre-revised pay scale of Rs 6500- 10500 has been upwardly revised from Rs 4200 to Rs 4600.

3. In Memo. No. 1/1/2008-IC dated 16th November 2009 of Ministry of Finance, the benefit of upgradation of grade pay Rs 4600/- has been extended to Assistants in the Central Secretariat. It is pertinent to note here that prior to 1.1.2006 the Assistants in CSS were in the pre-revised pay scale of Rs Rs.5500-9000. Their scale of pay was upgraded to the pre-revised pay scale of Rs.6500- 10500 w.e.f 15th September 2006 only vide DOPT memo No. 20/29/2006 dated 25.9.2006. Taking into consideration a large number of references from Administrative ministries/departments proposing upgradation of the grade pay, MOF has extended the pay structure of grade pay of Rs 4600 in the pay band PB-2 to Assistants of CSS w.e.f 1.1.2006.

4. The reasons given by MOF for upgradation are as under :

(i) Assistants of Central Secretariat are being granted grade pay of Rs 4600 due to the fact that there is an element of direct recruitment to the post and that too, through an All India Competitive Examination.
(ii) To maintain parity among analogous cadre.
(iii) To maintain the level in hierarchy of Central Secretariat having grade pay of Rs 4200 in the pay band PB-2 between the grades of Upper Division Clerks and Assistants.

5. Based on the same principle, Ministry of External Affairs has also revised the grade pay of Assistants working in the Ministry from Rs 4200 to Rs 4600 vide their Memo No. Q/PC/682/2/2009 dated 07.12.09 mentioned in para 1 (iii) above.

6. Though the Inspectors Posts were in the pay scale of Rs 5500- 9000, the demand of the Inspector Posts for placing them on par with the Inspectors of CBDT have been duly considered by the Sixth Pay Commission and as per their recommendation at para 7.6.14 extracted below, the Inspector Posts are to be deemed as placed in the pre-revised Pay Scale of Rs 6500-10500 as on 1.1.2006 and therefore the post of Inspector Posts also qualifies for grant of higher grade pay of Rs 4600/- on the same analogy adopted by the Ministry of Finance in Memo. F.No. 1/1/2008-IC dt.13th November 2009 and 16th November 2009 as under:

(i) The Post of Inspector was placed in the pre-revised Pay Scale of Rs 6500-10500 as on 1.1.2006.
(ii) There is an element of direct recruitment to the post of Inspector Posts that too, through an All India Competitive Examination.
(iii) The Sixth Central Pay Commission has recommended in para 7.6.14 to place Inspector Posts on par with Inspectors and analogous posts in CBDT/CBEC as well as Assistants of Central Secretariat Service (CSS) and accordingly the post was placed in the pre-revised Pay Scale of Rs 6500-10500 as on 1.1.2006.
(iv) HSG –II cadre and BCR officials who are being supervised by Inspector Posts are placed on par by placing them in grade pay Rs 4200/- w.e.f 1.1.2006. The principal of supervisor should get more pay than the supervised is to be followed and the level hierarchy should be maintained by placing Inspector Posts in the grade pay of Rs 4600 and above the HSG-II and BCR officials

7. Extract of relevant paragraph of Sixth Central Pay Commission Report is furnished below:

Inspector (Posts) 7.6.14 Postal Inspectors in Department of Posts have demanded a higher pay scale of Rs.6500-10500 on par with Inspectors and analogous posts in CBDT/CBEC as well as Assistants of Central Secretariat Service (CSS) on the ground that they are recruited through the same examination. The Commission is recommending the merger of pre-revised pay scales of Rs.5500-9000 and Rs.6500- 10500 which will automatically bring Inspector (Posts) on par with Assistants in CSS/Inspectors and analogous posts in CBDT and CBEC. With this upgradation, Inspector (Posts) shall come to lie in an identical pay scale as that of their promotion post of Assistant Superintendent (Posts) [ASPOs]. ASPOs shall, accordingly, be placed in the next higher pay scale of Rs.7450-11500 corresponding to the revised pay band PB-2 of Rs.8700-34800 along with grade pay of Rs.4600. The next higher post in the hierarchy, that of Superintendent (Post), which is also a promotion post for ASPOs, shall be placed in the pay scale of Rs.7500-12000 corresponding to the revised pay band PB-2 of Rs.8700-34800 along with grade pay of Rs.4800. Parity exists between the posts of Inspector (Posts) and Inspectors in Mail Motor Service (MMS). This parity would need to be maintained and Assistant Manager, Mail Motor Service shall be placed in the higher grade of Rs.7450-11500 whose corresponding replacement pay band and grade pay is PB-2 of Rs.8700-34800 along with a grade pay of Rs.4600. Similarly, Manager, Mail Motor Service shall be placed in PB-2 pay band of Rs.8700-34800 along with a grade pay of Rs.4800 which corresponds to the pre-revised pay scale of Rs.7500-12000. Accordingly, the Inspectors Post are deemed to be placed in the higher pre-revised pay scale of Rs 6500 – 10500 on par with Inspectors and analogous posts in CBDT/CBEC as well as Assistants of Central Secretariat Service (CSS) and the post is justified to be granted upgraded grade pay of Rs 4600.

8. While Inspectors, Assistant in CSS and analogous posts in CBDT and CBEC have been granted higher grade, the cadre of Inspector Posts alone is left behind. It has affected the cadre very much and Inspectors Posts are very much demoralized. In order to keep their morale up, it is necessary to revise the grade pay of IP to Rs 4600 which is just and fair.

9. Hence, it is requested that the department may look into the matter expediously and revise the grade pay of Inspector Posts immediately.

Thanking you, Madam,

Yours sincerely,

(S.Samuel)

Author's Comment : Air India serving upper class and India Post serving majority of lower class; Total number of employees in Air India - 16,000 and employees in India Post is 5,20,191 (India Post - estimated loss for 2009- 10 is about Rs 5200 Crores)

Expected deficit of Postal Department for the year 2009-2010 is Rs 5632.46 Crore

The Department of Posts has had deficit for the last three years and it is expected to continue in the year also. The details of the deficit for the last three years and the estimates for the current year are as under;

Year	Amount in Crores of Rupees
2006-07	1249.52
2007-08	1511.44
2008-09	3593.09
2009-10	5632.46

The Deficit has substantially increased during the previous year and the current year due to hike in salary of the Employees and Pensionary Charges of the retired employees on account of implementation of 6th Pay Commission’s Report. The main reason is that the rates of most of the postal Services do not reflect the market price as they are subsidized to make it within the reach of common man and to the remotest area of the country. Pricing of most of the products have not been kept with the pave of the cost of operations.

A new scheme “Project Arrow” has been introduced in this plan period for refocusing on the objectives of customer satisfaction and service delivery exchange and enabling the Post Office to develop in to hub for civic and governance initiatives, which will have a direct impact on socioeconomic will being of citizens.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF IP AND ASP CADRES ARE MERGED?

WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF IP AND ASP CADRES ARE MERGED?

Merits

1. All IPs will get GP of Rs 4600 w.e.f. 1.1.2006 and all will get arrears immediately.

2.As the IP and ASP cadre will be merged, the promotions already given from IP to ASP will be ignored for MACPS. The MACPS to IP cadre will be as follows:-

Promoted IPs*	After 10 years of service in IP Cadre or 20 Years of totalservice GP Rs 4800 (2nd Promotion)	After 20 Years of Service in IP Cadre or 30 years of total service GP Rs 5400 (3rd Promotion)
Direct IPs**	After 10 years of service as IP GP Rs 4800 (1st Promotion)	After 20 years of service as IP GP Rs 5400 (2nd Promotion)	After 30 years of service as IP GP Rs 6600 (3rd Promotion)

* It is presumed that no chance of promotion within 20 years of service in IP cadre.

**If we presume that direct IPs will get promotion to PSS Group B before completion of 30 years of service, they will be put into GP of Rs 4800 (like BCR PA drawin g GP of Rs 4200 is promoted to LSG cadre having GP of Rs 2400/-)

3. The reivsed GP under MACPS will be with effect from 1.9.2008. Those already completed 20 years of total service or 10 years of IP service will get GP Rs 4800 and those who have completed 30 years of total service or 20 years of IP service will get GP Rs 5400 from 1.9.2008 and arrears will be paid.

Demerits:-

1. There will no promotion for atleast 25 years in IP cadre. But there will no loss to IPs who have not passed PSS Group ‘B’ examination as they will get GP of Rs 5400 when they complete 30 years of total service or 20 years in IP Cadre.

2. IPs/ASPs who have passed PSS Group ‘B’ examination will be affected as follows:-

If promoted through examination within 10 years of IP service	GP Rs 4800 will be fixed with one increment
If promoted through examination after 10 years of IP service	As GP Rs 4800 would have been given already under MACPS no pay fixation will be done.
If promoted through examination after 20 years of IP service	He may be drawing GP of Rs 5400, but will be promoted to GP of Rs 4800. No benefit at all

In all the cases IP/ASP having 20 years of service in IP cadre will get GP of Rs 5400 i.e more than the PSS Group ‘B’ (promoted through exam).

3. A big question will be for Gazetted status. IP may be placed as Group ‘B’ non gazetted.

Already there is anomaly in giving promotion to BCR PA who are getting GP of Rs 4200 to LSG with GP of Rs 2400. Then why we should worry about for promotion to PSS Group B (GP of Rs 4800) after 25 years of service as we would get GP of Rs 5400 when we complete 20 years in IP cadre. We can opt for merger with the condition that the gazette status already given should not be withdrawn.

All are requested to offer their comments.

UPGRADATION OF PAY SCALE TO INSPECTOR POSTS

Ministry of Finance Vide Memo No F. No 1/1/2008-IC dated 13.11.2009 has revised the GP of Rs 4200/- granted to the existing pre-revised scale of Rs 6500-10500 to Rs 4600/- w.e.f 1.1.2006. The pay is to be refixed and the arrears will be paid immediately. Personal Secretaries of our Department who were in the pre-revised scale of Rs 6500 will be benefited immediately. Our demand for upgradation of pay scales to Inspector Posts at par with the Inspectors of CBDT/CBEC was considered by the Pay Commission and the recommendation given in the report is reproduced below:-

Extract of Para 7.6.14 of Pay Commission recommendations for Inspector Posts.

7.6.14 Postal Inspectors in Department of Posts have demanded a higher pay scale of Rs.6500-10500 on par with Inspectors and analogous posts in CBDT/CBEC as well as Assistants of Central Secretariat Service (CSS) on the ground that they are recruited through the same examination. The Commission is recommending the merger of pre-revised pay scales of Rs.5500-9000 and Rs.6500-10500 which will automatically bring Inspector (Posts) on par with Assistants in CSS/Inspectors and analogous posts in CBDT and CBEC. With this upgradation, Inspector (Posts) shall come to lie in an identical pay scale as that of their promotion post of Assistant Superintendent (Posts) [ASPOs]. ASPOs shall, accordingly, be placed in the next higher pay scale of Rs.7450-11500 corresponding to the revised pay band PB-2 of Rs.8700-34800 along with grade pay of Rs.4600. The next higher post in the hierarchy, that of Superintendent (Post), which is also a promotion post for ASPOs, shall be placed in the pay scale of Rs.7500-12000 corresponding to the revised pay band PB-2 of Rs.8700-34800 along with grade pay of Rs.4800. Parity exists between the posts of Inspector (Posts) and Inspectors in Mail Motor Service (MMS). This parity would need to be maintained and Assistant Manager, Mail Motor Service shall be placed in the higher grade of Rs.7450-11500 whose corresponding replacement pay band and grade pay is PB-2 of Rs.8700-34800 along with a grade pay of Rs.4600. Similarly, Manager, Mail Motor Service shall be placed in PB-2 pay band of Rs.8700-34800 along with a grade pay of Rs.4800 which corresponds to the prerevised pay scale of Rs.7500-12000.

As the Inspectors are already placed at par with pay scale of Rs 6500-10500, the benefit should also be given to Inspector Posts. The case is being taken up with our Department for upgradation of Grade Pay to Inspector Posts from Rs 4200/- to Rs 4600/- Simultaneously the grade pay of ASP and Gr B should upgraded to 4800 and 5400 respectively. Our Assoication is on the job. Specific orders will be got issued by the Directorate very soon.

SANCHAY POST SOFTWARE IS LIKELY TO BE IMPLEMENTED IN 6000 POST OFFICES MORE

Newsitem published in Times of India Bangalore dated 6.11.2009

BANGALORE: IT city is stepping on the gas — it is now at the heart of India’s post-office revolution. Software product ‘Sanchay Post’, designed by engineers of Bangalore-based Datanet Systems, is transforming the gargantuan Indian postal system into a more secure and tech-savvy savings hub, as good as any modern bank, making life easier for thousands of families who swear by postal savings.

Software Sanchay Post is doing what customers have sought for long — computerized post offices. By March 2010, 16,000 post offices across the country will offer computerized postal services that are highly secure, transparent and quick. The services will be available at main post offices in the first phase.

G H Visveswara, CEO of Datanet Systems, said: “India Post has computerized 9,500 post offices so far. The plan is to computerize 6,000 more this year. By March 2010, with 16,000 computerized post offices, the post office will be India’s largest computerized banking system. We are happy Sanchay Post is at the middle of this postal transformation, and more so because it is helping the common man who reposes faith in the post office.”

WHEN DID IT START?

The postal department started its computerization plans around 1998-99, and Datanet Systems was selected through a tender. Around 2000, when the first version of the software was released, 184 post offices had been computerized. Between 2000 and 2007, only 480 post offices had been computerized as the postal department “was going slow”.

An unprecedented change, however, took place after March 2007 “owing to persuasion by CAG that all operations be computerized”. Between March 2007 and October 2009, computerized branches increased from 480 to a whopping 10,000. With 6,000 more planned by March 2010, the Indian postal department is now doing what no limited banking institution in the country has ever done: computerizing 16,000 branches in three years flat, from March 2007 to 2010.

Feedback from post offices to the new software and computerization has been positive. “India Post’s plan to computerize 6,000 branches more with the software is testimony that it has been working well for them. If it was not, such a major decision on such a large scale would not be taken place,” Visveswara said.

YET ANOTHER REMITTANCE FACILITY TO/FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES (EUROGIRO)

The India Post being a largest network providing various services for the people in the country. We have remittance facilities by various modes viz Money Order, eMoney Order and iMO (instant Money Order) within our country. For remittance from foreign countries we have Western Union Money Transfer and IFS. Now with tie-up with Eurogiro, Our Department proposed launch the service from 24.10.2009 for remittance from/to foreign countries.

Newsitem published in the Eurogiro is reproduced below for information:-

India Post joins the Eurogiro community

Please welcome India Post as a member in the Eurogiro community, and an expansion of the Eurogiro payment gateway into the country of India.

India Post plans to launch its remittance service via the Eurogiro network in October 2009. Across its vast network of post office branches, the Post will provide its customers with cash and account transfers for both incoming and outgoing payments.

Indians working abroad will now be able to send payments for either cash pickup at a postal branch, or request to send cash directly to their relatives at their doorstep. India Post will provide account-to-account international payments like the banks in India, and they also plan to provide an outbound payment service with Eurogiro members for cash receipt.

India Post is a 100% government-owned postal and financial institution, established over 150 years ago to promote postal services and small savings development in India. The strength of India Post lies in its vast network and the end-to-end rural reach it provides in retail and cash management.

The Post has a vast network of 155,035 post offices (as on 31st March 2008), and is the largest postal organisation in the world. As a result it has become a popular mechanism for last mile delivery of both private commercial and governmental services.

India Post as a retail outlet has been increasing in popularity. The rapidly changing Indian economic scenario - liberalization, globalization, and a widespread technological revolution –has given rise to the need for efficient delivery of a variety of services. The Post provides not only universal postal services, but it also serves as a useful channel for other socially significant schemes like small savings, payment of Pension, Postal Life Insurance, especially for rural India.

The Post Office Savings Bank is the oldest and largest banking institution in India. It has over 200 million savings accounts and provides deposit facilities at over 154,000 branches spread out throughout India. In addition to its current deposit based activities, it also distributes a number of investment options including mutual funds, pension funds and non-life insurance.

The country of India is the largest receiver of international remittances. The World Bank estimates that US $45 billion of remittances were received by India in 2008, compared to $27 billion in 2007. In its annual report of 2008-09, the RBI said the global economic downturn had not dampened the flow of remittances to India, owing to many factors such as depreciation of the rupee, hike in interest rate ceilings on NRI deposits and uncertainties in oil prices.

MICRO POSTAL LIFE INSURANCE WITHOUT HEALTH CHECK UP FOR RURAL PEOPLE

People living in rural parts of the country will soon be able to avail insurance cover without being subject to mandatory health check-ups as is the norm for life insurance policies.

The department of posts is set to launch a major micro life insurance policy which will no more require the insurees to disclose their present health condition or diseases at the time of buying the policy, a move aimed at expanding the coverage in rural India.

The proposed insurance scheme, which can be availed by economically weaker sections (EWS) of the society and particularly women, will provide a risk cover up to Rs 25,000, said an official in the ministry of communication and information technology. The aim is to cover around one-tenth of Indians and become one of the potent players in the Indian insurance sector by easing out the procedural formalities that precedes purchase of any life insurance scheme.

While the new scheme has been made customer friendly, the postal department will put in place system and process to address the issue of fake claims. To ensure that relaxation over disclosing the insuree’s health condition does not lead to wrong claims, the claimant has to file a death certificate issued by a government doctor on the deceased’s cause of death, the official said. If the medical report says that the insuree was suffering from any ailment that existed prior to the purchase of the insurance policy, the postal department has an option not to honour the insurance claim. The policy premium will vary according to the age of the insuree and the duration of the policy.

India Post expects to cover around 100 million Indians by the end of 2011 under the scheme, this policy is assumed to play a major role in attaining this objective. The move is a part of the initiative taken by India post to put a major thrust on its insurance services and have a strong presence in the insurance sector specially in rural areas,” the official added.

Eight million lives and a sum of Rs 40,000 crore have been insured, since the launch of rural postal life insurance scheme launched in 1995, under various policies offered by India Post under the rural postal life insurance. The department also plans to align its investment norms for life insurance policies to pump in part of its daily collections in revenue-generating instruments including stocks, a move which is likely to start from October 1, 2009.

With a huge presence in the country with around 1.55 lakh post offices, the postal department is slowly developing itself as a centre for distributing diversified services like National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS), life insurance and financial solutions to its customers apart from its mail delivery system

Department of Post Selected Accenture to Design and Develop New Information Technology Architecture and System

The Department of Post (DoP) has awarded a 45-month information technology (IT) modernization contract to Accenture (NYSE: ACN) to design a new enterprise IT architecture and migrate the DoP to a more efficient, reliable and user-friendly IT system.
Accenture also will advise DoP on the development of a wide-area network environment that helps connect all post offices on which various online services can run, and will study the feasibility of implementing an enterprise solution for the department’s core banking and advanced financial services.
“The technology enablers will help DoP transform itself by increasing operational performance and achieving efficiencies through “last mile” connectivity,” said Krishna G.V. Giri, who leads Accenture's Management Consulting practice within its Health & Public Service operating group in the Asia Pacific region. “Armed with greater speed, efficiency, and flexibility at DoP, the government will be much better positioned to share various social schemes, such as the Mahatma National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme, with even the most remote citizens.”
Accenture’s work began in September with a business process re-engineering (BPR) exercise across key departments and core operations, such as mail operations, banking and advanced financial systems. Following the BPR exercise, Accenture will help select and monitor a vendor to enable the DoP to consolidate its technology infrastructure and applications.
The project is designed to help the DoP drive greater revenue and regain market share in different services and products, including bill payment, e-posts, life insurance, money transfer and banking.
According to Giri, DoP expects that the technology upgrade also will benefit citizens via speedier and more efficient banking and insurance services, track and trace abilities, and retail services. In addition, DoP will be able to compete effectively against local and international courier companies and increase revenue in the mail and logistics business.
