|
The matter of providing one Office Assistant has been discussed in Postal Services Board (PSB) meeting held on 08-11-2021 and the board has decided that the Circles already have the powers to redeploy posts as per exigencies of operations and the issue was agreed to be dropped from the Board meeting;
Discussion: From the Association side it was emphasized to expunge “as per exigencies” as it is invariably required and it was pointed that unless one clear instruction goes from Directorate Circles may take it seriously. DG(Posts) agreed to the suggestion and issued instruction for issuance of a clear instruction to Circles. Delegation of financial power to Sub-Divisional Officer was raised from Association side and DG(Posts) asked for submission of a detail proposal on it. |
