Subject  : Minutes of the meeting taken by Member (Personnel) regarding restructuring of Inspector Posts cadre.

Ref.       : Director (SR) letter No. 01/01/2011-SR dated 6th September, 2012.

Respected Madam,

               On the behalf of IPASP Association I feel privileged to wish you a very Happy New Year and hope that the department will achieve new milestones this year under your intuitive vision and dexterous talent. This Association assures you all support and co-operation to achieve this goal.

               At the same time Association brings to your kind notice some pending issues concerning our cadre which are enhancing the sense of discontentment due to non settlement of the same. It is being kindly recalled that your predecessor concluded meeting lastly held on 18-10-2011 for looking into promotional prospects of IPs/ASPs calling final view point of the Association to merge IP/ASP cadre.

     Since this was a vulnerable issue so Association left the decision for the house to decide. Subsequently, the house decided to request the department to relook in to the issue of merger of Inspector Posts and Assistant Superintendent Posts and call clarification / views on the following points which were sought vide this Associations letters of even number dated 17th July, 2012, 20th September and 1st October, 2012 (copies enclosed).

1.            What will be the nomenclature of the merged cadre without Gazetted status.

2.            At present, there is separate Appointing / Disciplinary Authority for IP/ASP cadre i.e. DPS is Appointing Authority for IPs and Disciplinary Authority for minor penalties is Divisional Head and for major penalties is DPS. For ASP cadre, CPMG is Appointing Authority and Disciplinary Authority for minor penalties is DPS whereas for major penalties is CPMG. Hence it may be clarified on merger, who will be Appointing Authority and Disciplinary Authority for the merged cadre. 

A copy of Director (SR) letter No. 01/01/2011-SR dated 6th September, 2012 for issuing clarification on the above enunciation is enclosed for reference but unfortunately it went for no result.

It is therefore urged to kindly intervene and get these points clarified so that the Association may feel it convenient to discuss this vital issue in the ensuing periodical meeting.

With warm regards

Yours sincerely,

Sd/-

General Secretary
