Sub : Repatriation of PS Gr. B officers to Home
Circle – Reg.
Ref. : Directorate file No. 9-11/2013-SPG Dt. 15.02.2013
Respected
Madam,
This Association would like to bring
to your kind notice that Directorate vide memo No. 9-23/2012-SPG dated
28/12/2012 has issued promotion and postings in Postal Service Group “B” cadre
for the vacancy year 2012-13 for 210 officers and again unexpectedly list of 6
officers was issued on 5/3/2013. It may be seen from file at Directorate that,
this Association had issued series of letters for timely convening of DPC for
the promotion to PS Gr. B cadre but every year DPC for promotion to PS Gr. B
cadre was delayed for one or other reasons thereby effecting efficiency of the
department.
Directorate while sensing worsening position of PS
Group ‘B’ cadre in Punjab and Karnataka and to cope up with the shortage
problem, favourably issued repatriation/re-allotment orders of some of the PS
Group “B” officers against future vacancies arising upto 31/3/2013. During the
course of informal meeting with Hon’ble Secretary (Posts) on 6/2/2013 this
vital and appreciable issue was discussed in detail citing the worsening
position of Tamil Nadu circle occurred due to enblock promotion in PS Group “B”
through LDCE. It was assured by your honour that the officers who have
completed one year service will be repatriated to their home circle against the
existing vacancies. Despite bringing this fact to the notice of Directorate
vide letter of even number dated 1/3/2013, nothing has been heard till date
what to say of repatriation before completing one year.
Madam, you will agree that a large number of
STS/JTS vacancies are lying vacant in Circles since long and PS Group “B”
officers are officiating against these posts creating resultant vacancies in
Group “B” in circles and imbalance thereof upto ASP/IP level affecting timely promotion
in each cadre. Only repatriation can minimise the imbalance occurring in the
circles and bring respite to the affected persons. It is pertinent to mention
here that hitherto General line officials promoted through LDCE have been given
same Circle for the last two years ignoring the right of IP Cadre promotees who always have had acted as a part
of Administration shouldering the responsibilities for implementation of Govt
policies and discharged them at all cost. Punjab and Andhra Pradesh Circle are
set examples of this discrimination. Resultantly, immense hard work of 25 years
in IP Cadre could not bring any solace in one’s career progression and our
members are left to join at a distant place or forced through backdoor to give
refusals and to work in IP/ASP cadre only. In this way, discrimination has been
handed over to our members being no fault of them.
It is understood that Directorate vide letter No.
9-11/2013-SPG dated 15.02.2013 had issued directions to circles for completion
of joining process of promotion ordered by targeted date 28.12.2012 and
submission of vacancy reports by 8/3/2013. The exercise has since been
completed now. It is therefore once again requested to kindly look into this
matter sympathetically and cause issue of repatriation orders at the earliest.
With seasonal greetings,
Yours sincerely,
Sd/-

General Secretary
