Dear Friends and Comrades,
The Secretary, Department of Posts, along with the other Members of the Postal Services Board and Senior officers held discussion with the Central JCA Leaders on the Charter of demands on 06.06.2011 and 07.06.2011 at Dak Bhawan. On 6th some of the items in the charter was discussed. 7th discussion was mainly confined to the issues relating to the mails. The Postal Board took a stand that the reorganization initiated in the mails sector such as speed post hubs, first class mails hubs, delivery hubs etc are to be continued and they sought the full cooperation of the staff side. The staff side made it clear that we strongly oppose the implementation of speed Post hubs, first class mails hubs, delivery hubs etc which are being implemented as per Mckinsey recommendations. We made it clear that public mail is being badly delayed and the confidence of the public is eroding day by day due the unscientific restructuring of mails sector. The Postal Board went on repeating its arguments justifying the hub experiment. No consensus could be arrived AND HENCE THE TALKS FAILED.
The Central JCA leaders met after the discussion and took the following decisions.
1. No compromise can be made on issues affecting the very existence of the Postal Department. No closure of any office or introduction of Mckinsey recommendations in the mails sector such as hub system can be allowed as it will completely ruin the Postal department and will facilitate for the growth of private courier services.
<!--[if !supportLists]-->2. <!--[endif]-->Other demands of the charter of demands should also be settled to the satisfaction of the staff side.
3. The strike preparations should be intensified in all circles and divisions.
