A Man of Achievement ! Thy name is Dr. Vennam Upender !



Fantastic ! Honoured by Limca Book of Records for his rare collection of stamps 
in Ramayana.

A man of great achievement. That is Dr. Vennam Upender, IPoS., PMG, Madurai.

He is an Engineering Graduate in Metallurgy, MBA (Marketing) and then got Ph.D. Not only that, he is a writer, novelist and a notable Literate.

You must know his other side also. In TN Postal Circle, there is always hue and cry among the employees, because of shortage of staff in P.A. cadre despite of annual recruitment upto the year 2015.

We have alleged that there was irregular assessment of vacancies in many Divisions since the year 2000 due to various reasons . This issue was taken up in various forums, agitational programmes continuously by our Union, since the year 2015.

Atlast, while discussing the pending subject, in the Regional Joint Consultative Machinery meeting held on 28.9.18, this was accepted by Dr.Vennam Upender , despite of reluctance from many in the Administrative side.

Finally the long pending request of the Staff Side was accepted by the CPMG,TN to form a special committee to review this matter , not only in P.A.cadre, but also in Postmen and in MTS cadre.

As per the request of the Staff side Dr. Vennam Upender was nominated as the Chairman of the Committee and given time frame of three months to submit his report.

He has taken this as challenge, discussed with the staff side representatives in many rounds , collected information throughout , and submitted his final report sharply before completion of assigned period of three months.... ie. by 31st Dec.2018.

In his report, he concurred with all the points raised by the Staff Side and recommended for a thorough review on the assessment of vacancies in all Divisions throughout Tamil nadu Circle, since the year 2000 and further recommended for a special recruitment from LGO in order to 
fill up the vacancies that were left out.

Despite of all these things, no tangible result received from the Divisions and the Divisional Heads are again and again submitted the manipulated figures , without taking into account the points put forth by the committee, so as to sustain their faulty stand.

Dr.Upender again requested the CPMG, TN to order for a work shop at Postal Training Centre, Madurai for all the Divisions to reassess the vacancies under his personal supervision.

This was accepted by the CPMG, TN and was ordered for three days work shop at PTC, Madurai , calling for all the ASP HQs, Staff & Estt. Clerks of all divisions throughout from TN Postal Circle, with all connected records from their divisions.

Everything was scrutinised carefully under his strict personal supervision. The work shop was extended further one day and atlast about 570 left out vacancies are now unearthed and declared in TN Circle.

This is a great achievement in his career. In no other Circle, throughout the Country, this was happened ever.

Being the Secretary of the Staff Side, RJCM, TN for long, who has raised this issue all along, it is my duty to record this.

Though he is very gentle and soft in approach, he is duty conscious, man of dedication , firm in his commitment ! 
We must learn many thing from him. He is Dr. Upender, PMG,Southern Region, TN. 
Congrats once again

What food should you have on what day


Sunday : Apart from it being a weekly off for most people, this is also the best day to tuck into different kinds of foods including plants, meat and fruits as all of it radiate the Sun's vibrance.

Monday : Since it's the day of the Moon, which signifies the element of water, it makes sense to consume things that have a high water content like watermelon, cucumbers and pumpkins.

Tuesday : Mars is the planet that rules this day and it radiates heat. Try mangoes, dates and pineapples on Tuesday.

Wednesday : This day belongs to Mercury, which is a dual planet. Hence you can consume all kinds of food on this day.

Thursday : The day belongs to Jupiter. Consume food that are orange or yellow in colour like oranges, lemons and bananas.

Friday : This day belongs to Mercury, which is a dual planet. Hence you can consume all kinds of food on this day.

Saturday : On the day of Saturn you can gorge on junk and oily food as the planet rules oil.

Technology Your TV bill has changed from this month: Here’s how TRAI’s new rules impact :


TRAI’s new framework for channels and DTH providers came into effect from February 1. Though the transition was smooth and there was no blackout, the new rules require subscribers of DTH and cable to choose channels and packs. The new rules are aimed at offering “freedom of choice” to consumers and give them “direct control” on their monthly bill for television services.

With the new rules in place, subscribers can select only the channels they like. One can also remove channels they do not wish to watch from their existing channel pack. So, what impact will TRAI’s new rules have on the monthly bill of subscribers? We take a look.

Base subscription is 130 for 100 channels

The base monthly fee for 100 channels is common across all operators, which is Rs 130+18 per cent GST and it comes to around Rs 153/-. All subscribers will have to pay Rs 153 as a base fee for up to 100 channels. Those who add more than 100 channels to their pack will need to pay Rs 20 extra for 25 channels. This is the network capacity fee, which will be charged extra to the Rs 130, plus taxes.

Channel prices capped at Rs 19/-

TRAI has fixed the price of channels to Rs 19/-. However, do note that one High Definition (HD) channel counts as two Standard Definition (SD) channels so a higher price could be reflected for some channels. Several channels including from Doordarshan are free-to-air so subscribers will not need to pay for them.

Channel packs and prices

DTH providers like Airtel, Dish, Tata Sky as well as cable operators have put out individual channel prices, which are inclusive of taxes on their website.  Subscribers can choose individual channels to make their own monthly pack or choose from packs listed by providers. The curated monthly packs are based on the user’s TV patterns and the channels that they are currently subscribed to. 
Essentially, subscribers will be paying from Rs 150 plus minimum for the tier of 100 channels. For any special channels, people will have to pay extra.

Gujarat Postal Circle won the 31st All India Postal Cricket Tournament.

On 20th January 2018, nineteen postal circles teams turned out to enjoy All India Postal Tournament on beautiful lush green cricket ground of Postal Training Centre, Vadodara, Gujarat. The tournament was inaugurated by Shri Dashrath Pardeshi, former Ranji Trophy player of Gujarat and Vadodara teams. The goal was to promote sportsman spirit, friendship and team spirit among the staff of various postal circles in India

Friendly yet competitive cricket matches were played between the teams. All the matches were played in noisy and cheerful atmosphere. The competition, the excitement of the game, and the liveliness and spontaneous actions of the supporters was noteworthy throughout the tournament.

After finishing all knocks out matches, quarter finals and semifinals, the grand final match was played between Gujarat Postal Circle team and West Bengal Postal Circle team on 24th January 2018 at Postal Training Centre ground Vadodara.

Gujarat won the toss and elected to field first. The starting was not good for West Bengal team. The Gujarat fast bowlers have troubled the West Bengal batsmen right from the outset as they sent back Tirth Roay and Sougata Datta in quick succession. The batting conditions were difficult at the middle and the visitors were struggling. However, after the initial onslaught, the batting duo of West Bengal skipper P.S. Bhattachary (32 runs from 65 balls) Surojit Dass (40 runs from 41 balls) have steadied their ship. Finally they managed to get 157 runs in 37.5 overs.
         
Chasing 157 was never going to be easy and once Gujarat lost three wickets in the power play it was always going to be an uphill task. Chirag Jani who has been their best player in this tournament once again was the only player who showed resistance to battle it out there. Jesal Karia and Mehul Patel did provide support but the West Bengal bowling was too hot to handle. Both teams had the chance to win and the game was changing in every few minutes. The last 10 minutes were breathless and extremely exciting and finally the team Gujarat crossed the line and became the champion of All India Postal Cricket Tournament 2017-18.

In prize distribution ceremony, Hon’ble Chief Postmaster General of Gujarat Circle, Shri. Gautam Bhattacharya had given trophies and medals to the Champion in the presence of various dignitaries. Shri Vineet Mathur, Postmaster General, Vadodara Region and Shri Ambesh Upmanyu, Postmaster General, Ahmedabad Region had given trophies and medals to the first and second runners-up teams (West Bengal and Odisha). On this occasion Hon’ble CPMG addressed all the staff members and players and explained how sports can bring out fitness and which in turn can help in productive office work. At last he congratulated the Director and all team members of Postal Training Centre, Vadodara for arranging such a wonderful cricket tournament.
