Circle Union Lr to CPMG to withdraw the speed post delivery on Holidays.

To

The Chief Postmaster General

Tamilnadu Circle

Chennai 600002.

Madam                Sub:  Request for withdrawal of speed post delivery on Holidays and Sundays in

                                     Southern Region submitted.

                Our Circle Union wants to bring to the kind notice of the Chief PMG that, in our Circle except southern region in all other regions viz., Chennai City Region, central Region, and in Western Region Speed post articles delivery is not effected on Sundays and holidays. But in Southern Region only some of the selected offices of the entire region mainly in Head Post offices the delivery of speed post articles effected in Sundays and holidays. To maintain this service the staff working in the delivery branch are brought on duty. It is very much affecting the feelings of the family members of the officials especially the children of those who are brought on duty, because when all other people are celebrating festivals and enjoying  holidays with the entire family members when only these families are deprived of that pleasure.

                Further all the establishments including Government and Private Sectors are closed on these days and the people are generally in festival mood, the delivery of speed post articles on those days are very much poor which is not at all matching to the expenditure incurred by the department to maintain such a little service.

                Therefore Our Circle Union request the Chief PMG to kindly consider to withdraw the speed post delivery on Holidays and Sundays that too, to start with from this Deepavali on 02.11.2013 in the Southern Region to maintain the uniformity in our Circle.

With kind regards

                                                                                                                Yours sincerely
