Circle Union Letter to PMG on Kovilpatti Issues.

Lr No. 287/KPT/2013                                                                                      Dated 22-08-2013

To

The Postmaster General

Southern Region,

Madurai 625 002

Madam,  

    Sub: Problems of Kovilpatti division and agitations of FNPO unions there on- reg.

                The FNPO divisional unions of Kovilpatti continuously placing some demands to the divisional administration for the redressal.  Despite their continuous efforts to find a smooth settlement with the divisional administration, there is no fruitful result so far.  Therefore now they are going on some local agitations, on 19-8-2013 Demonstration and on 27-8-2013 Dharna .  In the meantime, divisional administration called FNPO unions for talks on 19-8-2013 forenoon.  As the talks failed, as announced demonstration took place on 19-8-2013.   As the local unions heading for dharna on 27-8-2013, my Circle Union wants the intervention of the Regional Administration for settlement of above issues to facilitate for reconsideration of conducting Dharna, etc by local unions. 

  My divisional union mainly focusing on following issues:

1.  Most of the computers, printers, UPS, in the division are under disrepair and they are requiring   periodical maintenance.

2. MACP promotions are not considered in on time- undue delay must be avoided.

3. Volunteers were called for to the OA vacancies of divisional office.  As per the willingness, the divisional administration not posted them permanently, instead of that OA postings are made on deputation which is collapsing normal functioning of the divisional office

4. One official posted as SPM, K.R. Nagar S.O indefinitely working at the divisional office on deputation for years  and in his SPM place, one official having less than 5 years  service has been posted  on deputation. This arrangement is an example for the confused state  of Kovilpatti division. 

5. As all the DSMs are belonging to other union, they are not attending the complaints preferred by FNPO union officials.  They should strictly be instructed not to show any partiality towards the officials of FNPO.

6. There is lot of complaints about one GDS official officiating as Electrician at Kovilpatti HO and he is given undue favoritism by the divisional administration.  It is also stated that there are some other qualified officials are willing to work as Electrician.  This may also please be considered.

7. When the GDS officials are newly appointed, they must be given the TRCA suitable to their workload.  But, this ruling position is not considered by the divisional as well as sub divisional administration instead of that, they are paid TRCA to the floor minimum of three hours irrespective of their workload.  This point may please be suitably advised to the divisional heads.

8. Wherever the GDS officials asked to look after the other GDS duty in combination those GDS officials must be paid with combined duty allowance without delay.

9. All the GDS posts lying vacant must be filled up within a specified time fram [with in 90days] already circulated by the circle administration.

10. Adequate supply of computer papers may please be ensured.

                As all the points narrated above can easily be addressed by the divisional administration, it is totally un-understandable why the divisional administration is unnecessarily prolonging the issues. 

         Therefore, my Circle Union humbly submit to the  PMG Madam to kindly intervene immediately for issuing suitable instructions to the divisional administration to settle the issues which are seriously pursued by our divisional union,  as a right measure  not to force the divisional unions to go on further  agitations.

With kind regard,                                                                                                                                 Yours sincerely,

Sd/-  G.P.Muthukrishnan,
Circle Secretary, Tamilnadu
