The Union Cabinet today approved the proposal of the Department
of Posts to enhance the ceiling for calculation of ex-gratia bonus payable
to Gramin Dak Sevaks from Rs. 2,500/- to Rs.3,500/- same as that prescribed
for the regular departmental employees. The decision would be applicable
with prospective effect that is from the accounting year 2012-13 payable in
2013-14.
The increase in bonus calculation ceiling will restore the long established
parity between regular departmental employees and Gramin Dak Sevaks on the
issue of payment of bonus. This decision will benefit 2.63 lakh Gramin Dak
Sevaks working in the Department of Posts, who play a very vital role in
providing postal, financial and insurance services in the rural, hilly and
tribal areas of the country.
