          All India Association of Inspectors and Asst Supts of Posts

Sub:- Merger of Inspector Posts and Assistant Superintendents of Posts cadre for consideration of Grade Pay of ₹4,600/- to Inspector Posts.

Dear Shri Ingale Ji,

          This has a reference to para-5 of Directorate Letter No. 137-89/2013-SPB-II dated 11-10-2013 regarding clarification of merger of Inspector Posts and Assistant Superintendent of Posts cadre for consideration of Grade Pay of ₹4,600/- to Inspector Posts.

          Odisha Circle Branch has a consistent view of accepting merger of Inspector Posts and Assistant Superintendent of Posts cadre irrespective of nomenclature of the merged cadre and surrendering of Gazzetted status to get the Grade Pay of Rs.4600/- for Inspector Posts.          It is suggested to place a demand for Heads of the Circle to be the appointing authority of the merged cadre.

          However, Odisha Circle Branch has certain disagreement on the proposal for merger of ASP Cadre with PS Group-B which was published on CHQ Blog on 2-10-2013. Odisha Circle is in favour of straightway accepting merger of Inspector Posts and Assistant Superintendent of Posts cadre with Head of the Circle as appointing authority for merged cadre. It is suggested to place the demands for creation of new Postal Sub-Divisions, new Postal Divisions and up-gradation of IP/ASP posts to PS Group-B Posts for better promotional avenues of IPs in cadre restructuring.

          The sanctioned strength of IPs/ASPs of Odisha Circle is confirmed as in the Annexure.      

           With best regards,        

Sincerely yours,

 Pitabasa Jena

Circle Secretary, AIAIASP
