GS writes to Member (Personnel) requesting speedy action on conducting DPC for promotion to the cadre of Postal service Group 'B' for the year 2020

Sub:- Convening DPC for promotion to the cadre of Postal service Group 'B' for the year 2020 - reg.

Respected Sir,

As per prevailing instructions, DPC should be held well in advance so that a panel is approved by the time vacancy actually arises. As per the Model Calendar for conducting DPCs circulated vide Department of Personnel and Training OM No.22011/4/2013-Estt(D) dated 8th May, 2017, the prescribed timeline for getting ready the approved select panel for the vacancy year - 2020 was 31st December, 2019.

Now, for initiating the process for conducting the DPC for promotion to the cadre of PS Group 'B' for the year 2020, Directorate has called for documents from the Circles vide Personnel Division No.9-06/2020 - SPG-II dated 21-01-2020. But, thereafter no progress seems to have taken place in the matter.

The delay in conducting the DPC is impeding the career progression of the senior eligible IPs/ASPs and affecting their consequential benefits.

Therefore, we request for taking speedy action in the matter for convening the DPC at the earliest possible and to grant promotion to the cadre of Postal service Group 'B' in time.  

With profound regards,
Yours faithfully,

Covid-19 lockdown: India Post is more than just the ubiquitous red boxes

When some migrant labourers were stranded in far-flung Shillong during the lockdown, postmen using handheld POS machines and Aadhaar-authenticated payment system ensured that they received their direct benefit transfer money.
From delivering life saving drugs to reaching personnel protection equipment to hospitals, besides pension payments and banking services, India Post has used its vast network to ensure uninterrupted supplies and combat the crippling impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

It is using an array of transport systems, from Blue-Dart cargo flights to special parcel trains being run by railways.
The 1,000 ATMs that have been deployed by the department has come in handy for ensuring banking services while the 3 lakh Grameen dak sewaks armed with micro ATMs have fanned out across the remotest parts.

Data on different metrics provides a sense of the mammoth operations. From March 24 to April 13, nearly 14 lakh speed posts were booked, about 2.43 lakh parcels used its network and nearly 11 lakh electronic money orders were registered. From March 24 to April 15, nearly 1.3 banking transactions were carried out, totalling Rs 21,000 crore. On an average, one lakh AePS transactions were undertaken and Rs 10 crore disbursed among the needy and the poor at their doorstep.


“When the lockdown was announced, there was apprehension that our operations would grind to a halt but the department reinvented itself and become even more people-centric and compassionate,” said another official.
