7 வது ஊதிய குழு சம்பந்தமாக வதந்திகளை பரப்பும் வலையதளங்கள் மற்றும் ஊடகங்கள்.

Vague News about implementation of 7th CPC recommendation is Posted in Internet
              Any news about implementation of 7th pay commission recommendation is the Hottest topic of discussion at all offices of Central Government. To encash this interest of Central Government servants, all the Media has focused on publishing vague news about latest development in 7th pay commission. To what extent it is true is debatable issue. But whatever the news posted in Social Media and News Media about the seventh CPC recommendation never missed to draw the attention of Central Government employees. 
             Just two lines are enough to make a hot news to publish to attract the attention of viewers. Readers has to verify whether the news published on pay panel report is true or not.A news published recently in a Reputed News Website says that the Empowered Committee would propose Minimum Pay Rs.20000/-.The article states, “According to reports, the Empowered Committee of Secretaries (CoS) is planning to propose a minimum pay of Rs 20,000 instead of Rs.18,000 as proposed earlier”.But there was no point in that article that on which basis the minimum pay would be fixed at Rs.20000/-. 
           These type of imprecise news are keep coming in many news blogs now. The NCJCM Staff side said that the ECoS has just observed the concerns raised by them in the Meeting. They insisted that Minimum Pay should be raised to Rs 26000/- instead of Rs 18000. In fact, is was told that the ECoS has not been given any power to commit any thing on modifying the recommendations.  The next one is the news about implementation date of 7th Pay commission recommendations.
           The Central Government has already appointed a High Level Committee to review the recommendations and the Meeting with Stakeholders are being held recently. Whenever it completes its task it will prepare a report and it will be sent to Cabinet Committee of Ministers. Only after the approval of the Cabinet Committee, Notification in this regard may be issued.  
           The committee has not been given any time frame to complete its work. But the Social and News Media are flooded with the news about the date of implementation of 7th CPC recommendations. Starting form May 21st, June, July and up to September 2016 are the dates suggested by the Media to implement the Pay panel report. It appears that they are all mere cooked up stories. 
           The only reliable sources to tell about the decision of Government are NCJCM Staff Side and Government Officials. But None of them so for made any statement about tentative date of issuing Notification for implementation of pay commission. So let us wait sometime to know the actual development and hope it will be come out soon.

Socio-economic survey of BOs - regarding names of BOs to include in the sample survey

GDS Committee ஆரம்பமெல்லாம் நல்லாதான்யா இருக்கு..............
 
Dear Friends,

            The GDS Committee is proposing to conduct a socio-economic survey of selected Branch post offices and Gramin Dak Sevaks to collect the information.  For the purpose, a sample size of 1500 Branch Post offices have been identified, with proportionate representation, with the help of the Circles.

Since the Committee considers Federations / Unions as important stakeholders in the entire process, it is decided that approximately 10% of the BOs which will be surveyed should be identified by Federations / Unions. 

In view of the above, it is requested to kindly send names of two BOs from each Circle (maximum 50) to include them in the sample size.  The BOs selected should be representative of the overall existing conditions of BOs in the country. The names should reach us by 14.4.2016 in the following format, as we have planned a work shop for nodal officers from the Circles on 19.4.16 at RAKNPA. 

Name of the BO

Name of the division and region

Name of the Circle

Regards

Government again commits to comply with CAT Judgement for revision of Pension of Pre 2006 Pensioners with less than 33 years service. But seek more time for compliance.

    Orders are likely to be issued early for full Pension to the Pre-2006 Pensioners who retired after 10 years of service on superannuation or 20 years of service on Voluntary retirement or on absorption in PSUs. Their pension shall be revised as per judgment of CAT New Delhi instead of Pro-Rata Pension.

    Govt. advocate, while replying to the Contempt Petition filed by CGSAG (S-29) Pensioners Association-vs-UOI, had agreed in CAT New Delhi on 16-2-16, to implement within 4 weeks the CAT judgements (dated 21-4-2015 in OA 1165/2011 & Dated 22-1-2016 in OA 2165/2011, RA 165/2015 & 175/2015).

    In the hearing of the Contempt Petition in the CAT on 31-3-2016, the Govt. Advocate sought more time to submit compliance orders on the judgment. The next date for hearing was fixed on  25th May, 2016.

    Earlier, the Department of Expenditure, wanted to restrict the said benefit to the Petitioners, but finally agreed in a Meeting with Staff Side JCM on 10-3-2016, to reconsider the matter in view of the opinion of Deptt. of Legal Affairs for implementation of the CAT orders.

Proposals on Child Care Leave (CCL) and Maternity Leave

Proposals on Child Care Leave (CCL) and Maternity Leave

No. 13018/1/2014-Estt(L)
Government of India
Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions
Department of Personnel & Training

Old JNU Campus, New Delhi 110 067
Dated: 01.04.2016

OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Subject:-Proposals on Child Care Leave (CCL) and Maternity Leave — Reg.

This is regarding proposals on the subject of Maternity Leave and CCL that are under consideration in this Department. In this connection, a workshop was held in DoPT on 28.01.2016 with the stakeholder Departments on the following issues and the consensus emerged as follows:

(a) Maternity/CCL in case of surrogacy: There is no provision at present for any kind of Leave for surrogate/commissioning mothers. It is proposed that 180 days maternity leave may be granted to the surrogate as well as commissioning mothers, in case either/both of them are Government servants. The commissioning mother also requires time for bonding with her child and to take care of him/her and hence would also become eligible for Child Care Leave. Paternity Leave may also be granted in case of surrogacy.

(b) Age Limit for CCL in case of disabled children: It is proposed that the age limit for CCL in case of disabled children needs to be done away with since the requirement of parental care may be more/stronger when the disabled child grows older. It may therefore be allowed to provide for CCL in the case of disabled children — the ‘disability’ being clearly defined by the Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment – without any age limit provided the maximum CCL that can be availed remains within the ceiling of 730 days.

(c) Leaving HQ/availing LTC while on CCL: At present leaving headquarters or availing LTC are not permissible during CCL. The underlying intent of CCL is to allow care of up to two children whether for rearing or to look after any of their needs like examination, sickness etc. Thus, it is not restricted to exam and sickness alone. Taking care may also include ensuring their rest and recreation and towards that objective leaving headquarters or availing LTC can be allowed. It is thus proposed that the employees may be permitted to leave headquarters/avail LTC while they are on CCL, provided clearances from appropriate competent authorities are taken while proceeding on foreign travel.

(d) CCL minimum for at least five days: Vide this Department O.M. No.13018/6/2013-Estt.(L) dated 5 th June, 2014 the stipulation of the requirement of minimum period of 15 days’ CCL has been removed. It is now proposed to introduce a minimum period of five days of CCL i.e., CCL henceforth may not be granted for less than 5 days.

2. Comments on the above proposals are solicited please.

Compulsory Retirement – Cracking down on CG Employees

Compulsory Retirement – Cracking down on CG Employees – While there was always a rule to compulsorily retire bureaucrats, the rule applies to only those who are at least 50 years old.

CG employees may get 3-4 times the salaries of their private sector counterparts, especially at the lower-to-medium levels, but the security of tenure that they enjoyed is now under threat because of the compulsory retirement threat.

A study for the 7th Pay Commission found a fresh government nurse earned 3.4 times her private sector counterpart, a teacher 2.7 times and a driver 2.3 times. While there was always a rule to compulsorily retire bureaucrats,the rule applies to only those who are at least 50 years old – on grounds of either corruption or inefficiency, this has rarely been used.

According to The Economic Times that reported the use of an obscure Rule 56(j) to sack 15 customs and central excise officials —including two at the level of commissioners—this was last invoked three decades ago. Indeed, a few months before it demitted office in 2014, the UPA government reiterated the rule, but it did precious little about it. The NDA reissued the order last September, but made its intentions clear since, while doing so, the order excerpted various Supreme Court judgments on this – in other words, CG employees were warned that the highest court in the land had ruled in favour of this in the past.

In the case of State of Gujarat vs Umedbhai M Patel, the SC had ruled that “whenever the services of a public servant are no longer useful to the general administration, the officer can be compulsorily retired for the sake of public interest”. It then went on to say, according to the DoPT circular, “For better administration, it is necessary to chop off dead wood, but the order of compulsory retirement can be passed after having due regard to the entire service record of the officer.”

Since the exercise is believed to have been kicked off at the instance of the Prime Minister’s Office, chances are that several more employees may be shown the door.

India Post to launch own e Commerce Portal

Directly stepping into the cyber world, India post is going to launch its own e-commerce portal in the shape of those like Amazon or eBay soon. The aggressive step of India Post, world's largest postal service, is a part of its massive IT based modernization initiative worth Rs 5,000 crore.

"At planning and designing phase now, the final rollover of the dedicated postal e-commerce portal may take another 6 months. But we are excited about this new avatar in our service basket," Mr. John Samuel, member of Postal Services Board told ET.

As he describes, the portal will be like popular e-commerce entities like Amazon or eBay. A conduit between buyers and sellers. But, it is not going to be entirely open for any item to be traded by anyone. Rather a moderated and scrutinized list will be followed. Local specialties like Tea from Darjeeling, Mango from Malda in West Bengal or Saffron BSE -4.86%  from Kashmir will have emphasize in that.

India Post is Tying up with different controlling authorities like Spices Board, Tea Board, or cashew Board to ensure 'quality trading of quality items only'- as Mr. Samuel puts it.

In addition to the physical products, services of different public sector are also being planned to be included into the tradable items of the portal.

"Wide and fast growing coverage of Internet through computer and mobile phones are bringing more and more people from even remote corners to the doorsteps of e-commerce. There lies our new opportunity. Moreover delivery of the items is a major issue for all e-commerce authorities. Here also India post excel's with its 1.5 lakh establishments and time tested connectivity network," he said.

In one hand we have Rs 4909 crore worth IT related infrastructure modernization plan and on the other hand, we are spending another Rs 2000 crore to have new vehicles to ensure faster delivery. 

Indeed it is a new step to a new world that can give new life to financially crunched Indiapost. But, "We need to bring change in our own attitude at certain corners to churn out the best out of this initiative," accepted Mr. Samuel.

     Sub; Excruciating state and intolerable stress among cadres due to the malfunctioning of CBS- reg

Respected Madam, 

My Federation constrains to bring this issue again and again despite of our discussion and letters, there is no development in the field. Therefore I am once again forced to write this issue to you that is about the insurmountable misery our officials are doomed to suffer in the CBS enabled post offices. There appears to beno ray of hope for the respite to which our staff are overdue in all levels regardless of the hierarchy. But theofficials working in the post offices are put to rigorous exploitation and the resultant stress. Even though we are boasting of having brought as many 20500offices under the nexus of CBS operation and outwitted the digital connectivity of the other stake holders, the working condition of the workers are deterioted to such degree of exploitation forcing us to intervene for an immediate solution. The innovation does not lead to technological improvisation ensuring the best possible service to the customers. But, instead, had rendered our staff with an unsavory and humiliating experience of encountering the public wrath and curse on day to basis. Al the assurances the administration, had given in the past about the transient nature of the problems had not proved to be credible and worthy merit. Instead the problems are aggravating day by day making every one skeptic of the words from the authorities that be. The staffs are working up to midnight to see that the validation followed by EOD is given staring the computers most of the time for connectivity. There was a total collapse of the connectivity impounding our staff to stay as late as mid night. The system administrators of the divisional headquarters are doomed to monitor the completion of the work round the clock and in fact have to complete the validation and other work of the sub offices by obtaining the details of the transactions over phone.The staff of CPC are equally ordained to work tireless. The plight of the women employees is ineffable and RISK fraught especially when they are to return to home in the late hours. Apart from, becoming totally indifferent and inattentive to their domestic chores (including child care), their vulnerability to the undesirable incidents either while working alone in remote offices or on the way back to home in odd hours are to be borne in consideration and remedy found on a war - foot basis. Theemployers are not all paying any heed to serious state where in the security of women staff at stake attracting various provisions of the law of land in the event of any untoward incident. Request is hereby fervently made by the undersigned forfinding way and means to end this end this draconian travails meted to officials in CBS offices. • The connectivityspeed is said to be one of the prime reason for all these hardship faced by our staff some time back when the roll out was fewer. • The problem relating to the center server‘s imbibing capacity of the data being entered is now adduced to be the sole dominating reason for the presentlogjam. • But oblivious to what is in store for us by the action in higher echelons, it is requested to do some plausible measure in our domain to bring down the peril facing us by adapting some procedural changes . The over flooding of data reach out to server in the evening hours pertaining to BO transaction results in clogging and glitches, very typical of peak hour spurt in the traffic. The work in closing hours of the sub offices is to be reduced if at all any prima facie remedy is to be realized. The following measures are suggested for these can be done in our level as per the rules and with out causing any injury to customers interest. (i) The conversion of all BO in the CBS offices as one day transit offices with instruction to treat the bag received for the day as bags received after closing of the account bag to HO, except taking the cash as advance remittance. The contents of the bag except RL/mails are to kept overnight and to be incorporated in the next day account. The work of the BOS is therefore can be started right from the morning with the vouchers of previous day and can be put through in phased manner during office hours. The spread out entry of BOs transactions concurrently and leisurely with the sub offices work will avoid the accumulation in the evening and the crowding of data to server can be therefore be effectively eschewed. (ii) Even if there is any likelihood of delay due to unanticipated glitches, the work of the day can be planned and alternate measures of shifting the CBS related work to nearby offices where the verification can be done well within reasonable time. (iii) Constituting of special salvaging cell comprising of qualified staff with staggered attendance at focal points in order to complete the work of the Sub offices that cannot be accomplished for the aforesaid reason. As such it is a common sight that some of the sub office staffs are trying the validation in the HO in late evening hours as and when the total connectivity is lost in their office. (iv) After close of the SO transaction along with the BO transaction of the previous day (by changing the value date), the EOD should be given at once in order to facilitate the CPC to run EOD for the circle level. The DC can therefore be run on the same day.But in the present arrangement, the initiation of EOD at postoffice level after validating the BO transaction late followed by CPC EOD compliance drags the DC to be run on the peak hours of the next day. Eventually telling upon the flow of the SO transactions the morning itself. (v) Now the augmentation of server and providing additional serverare impossible instantly.The heavy data flow cripples the work as per the latest findings by the experts. It is true that with more than 20000 SOLS and more number of logins, it may not possible to access the server swiftly.Further the target related spurt in the opening of accounts etc has increased the data flow.With a net result the server what we have now in dearth of space over flooded withdata and is bound to delay the transaction. The roll out of the rest of the Non CBS offices is beyond imagination with the available capacity and in fact have to be dropped in the beginning of this week . Oflate, the Infosys have advised that the duration of idle sessions be minimized and further to keep session count under check by restricting the session users.Of this couple of findings, the idle session time has since been reduced to 5 mts for thepast 4 days.Nevertheless there is no improvement. As regards the restriction of the session users, not only for thepresent season, but till the server is added up the way out is to be found out by the Department. It is for sure the worker of the department cannot endure any more to undergothe rigors and drudgery of working late in the night to see the transactions are validated. My Federation of the strong conviction that the basic work of the POSB,as enshrined in our volume should be done manually on day to basis and the value added service like CBS and ATM can be performed periodically ,on turn basis, which will restrict the usersat optimum level conducive to server to serve swiftly. Thus the CBS will have to be termed and practiced as real time CBS. The slot should be apportioned among the sub offices with HO empowered to have access daily. The sub offices during the restricted day should accept the transactions as in the past duly maintainingthe Long book and RD journal etc to substantiate the receipt and payment in the daily account. The vouchers can be validated by sending the same to HO on the same day along a copy of the long book and RD journal as the case may be. At Ho there should be enough staff strength (drawing officialsrendered surplus from abolition of SOSB and from SBCO in staggered attendance) to do the validation and this team can be deployed in night hour attendance on par with CPC.The updation of SO transaction work during the non CBS days at HO should be timed in such way that it should not delay the EOD and DC of the day. The bandwidth of the HO can be raised considerably and thus the Core banking inclusion can be done on the same day, even though not instantly, for the costumer to get the value added service CBS uninterruptedly. This can be done till such time server capacity are enhanced or number added up.By doing so the much desired reduction in session login by the Infosys can be ensured by adapting the procedure already in vogue in our volumes without depriving the service of basic POSB to customers (in whatever way that deemed fit and plausible.) My Federation therefore request you to kindly look in to matter and save the official from exploitation, otherwise no other choice for officials but to leave the office as such after the close of working hours by duly incorporating the receipts and payment of the day towards POSB manually and thereby fulfilling the basic objective of the basic duty behold a Postoffice. Further my Federation request your good self to defer the RICT which will increase the logged in users multi-folded till such time server is added or amplified for seamless access. If the atrocities unleased on worker for no fault of them if goes unabated , we are left with no other choice of resorting to Trade Union action and judicial remedy drawing the attention of the Government about the barbaric way of treating the workers in the Department of Post.                                      Yours Sincerely,                                                                                                                                   (D.
