No. GS/AIAIASP/Merger/IP-ASP/2013                        dated  :     6^th Jan 2014.

To,

Ms Trishaljit Sethi, 

Dy. Director General (Estt),

Department of Posts,

Dak Bhavan, Sansad Marg,

New Delhi 110 001.  

Subject :     Merger / de-merger of IPO/IRM cadre  minimum working experience  about Postal/RMS wing before promotion to Assistant Superintendent /Superintendent cadre.  

Ref.       :     Dte No. 25-02/2001-PE-I dated 9^th September, 2013 

Respected Madam,            

          Kindly recall discussion dated 27^th November 2013 had with members of this association on the above cited subject. During the course of discussion it was brought to your kind notice that, this Association vide letter dated 21/9/2013 and 17/10/2013 has requested to withdraw the compulsory eligible service of 2 years in RMS/Postal side for promotion to the cadre of ASP and a compulsory service of minimum of 3 years in RMS /Postal side for being eligible for promotion to the cadre of PS Group B. It was explained in detailed to your honour that there is huge difference in ratio of posts between the two sides that would certainly pose practical problems in implementing the orders issued under Directorate memo No. 25-02/2001-PE-I dated 9^th September, 2013. I am told that Punjab Circle has already reported this problem to Directorate and sought clarification on this issue pending to which the circle is not ready to convene the DPC for the promotion from IP to ASP unless the mandatory service conditions are relaxed. 

          In this context, I would like to bring to your kind notice that, the then Member (P) and OSD to Secretary (Posts) has assured to re-look into the matter by issuing revised instructions thereon, but till date no revised instructions have been issued. Now the result is that all the promotions from IP to ASP have been blocked by circles minimising the promotional prospects of IPs/ASPs in all the Circles.  

  It is therefore once again requested to either arrange to withdrawal the mandatory condition of service made essential vide Directorate memo No. 25-02/2001-PE-I dated 9^th September 2013 or revised instructions may be issued in the interest of the cadre and department as assured during meeting at different level.   

With New Years Greetings,

 

Yours sincerely, 

Sd/-

General Secretary
