Publicizing the release of my Autobiography- My Journey on the Chariot of Time
Respected
Secretary,
I
am writing this letter with deep regret and anguish in my heart. During the
last three months I have been trying to get the publication of the above book
brought to the notice our Inspectors and Asst. Supdt of Post Offices through
your good office. I sent the brief about the book and comments made by senior
officers of the Department, journalists, national dailies and unionists by
e-mail to all the Secretaries including the General Secretary but only CS of
Chhatisgarh, Kerala, MP, Orissa and Punjab responded favourably showing extreme
enthusiasm and cooperation. Their positive attitude encourages me to address
you in writing with request to get the publicity material put on your blog too.
If there is no blog please do some publicity by circulars guiding them to visit
the blog of Orissa or Punjab Circle to have some information about the book. Ms
Madhuri’s comments on the book are comprehensive: it has been put on
the Punjab Circle blog under caption’ Wake up Call’.
As
observed by Ms Madhuri, Director in our Directorate this is the long awaited
book that should be read by all officers of the Department. She even advised me
to start writing a history of Postal Department. Comments by S/Shri T B Reddy,
Retd PMG, Col Suresh (APS) and Vijay Chitale, Retd CPMG have encouraged me to
advise you to read and spread the message of my story to all our
departmental brethren. It is a mystery that I am getting orders for the book
from PAs/Accts/SPMs/Sr.PMs and junior IPs but a few only from ASPs and
SPOs. I take this liberty to record here
that it is not the enquiry report of some lost opportunities: it is a
well-written document that will be a companion with you forever. My pain and
humiliation as an Inspector still bring shivers in my spinal cord. You too have
this pain now. It is only reason for writing this book. Lastly, I request
Circle Secretaries to post their comments about the book on the blog and to
send copy to my email address. Get some books and present them to your
immediate IPS officers. Let them open their eyes.
They
are requested to design own publicity material from the information I had sent by
e-mail or to copy it from Orissa blog or Punjab blog. Ms Madhuri’s comments
will be an added boost. My address and price of the book etc. have already been
conveyed or available on the above blog. I hope you will share in my efforts.
Thank
you.
With
regards,
Mr.
E M Samuel
