Encl: Charter of demands.

CBS, FINACLE, CIS DEMANDS DAY – 10.06.2016 - ALL DIVISIONAL / BRANCH SECRETARIES ARE REQUESTED TO ATTEND THE CALL WITHOUT FAIL.

ALL INDIA POSTAL EMPLOYEES UNION GROUP ‘C’

CHQ: Dada Ghosh Bhawan, 2151/1, New Patel Road, New Delhi - 110008

Ref: P3/Circular/2016 Dated – 27.05.2016

CBS, FINACLE, CIS

DEMANDS DAY – 10.06.2016

There is no need to elaborate the miseries and sufferings we are facing at base level after the implementation of Finacle, (CBS & CIS) and the mental torture.

The CHQ is aware of the issues and properly placed before the Department vide its letter dated 22.01.2016, 11.02.2016 & 25.04.2016. Further it was brought to the personal notice of the Hon’ble Minister of communication. However, the progress in resolving the Finacle issues is in slow nail causing resentment and unrest amidst officials.

The assurance of the Department on 28.03.2016 in providing two more server by Infosys to solve the Finacle problem has not been carried out yet. The increase in the bandwith as per the requirement of the office has not been carried out in any circle.

Adding fuel to fire, the department’s recent decision in implementing the Business hours of Post office to the extent of 5 hours for monetary transactions has not been exercised. Some circles like Tamilnadu, Haryana etc. have sought clarifications to prevent the implementation of the decision without minding the existing sufferings of officials due to faulty functioning of Finacle & others and the officials are forced to remain in office in late hours. There is every risk for the women employees to leave office late every day.

For the last ten days, there is poor access and even no access in Finacle continuously throughout the nation affecting the public and staff very badly. This is nothing but due to the incapacity of the servers provided by Infosys. The department is not in a position either to correct things or apply the penal provisions against the vender. The existing position in Finacle is nothing but the last straw on camel’s back.

The recent conversations unofficially held between the Infosys and some staff exhibited in the website will reveal the fact. We must know who is committing mistake after mistake. Whether the officers dealing the Finacle are aware of all the software and hardware oriented issues. Are they simply hearing and acting as per the dictums of the vendors? Howe many times we are going to alter our rulings to suit the requirement of vendors? Will there be any time to the officials to go through the routine daily circulars on CBS functioning in the pressure of work?

We lost our patience. Even though, we suffer voluntarily a lot as we feel it is the transition period, in the implementation of Finacle, it is felt now that without settlement of the Problems, the Department is inclined to proclaim that it has implemented the Finacle more in numbers than the leading banks and also without any Quality and good service to the customer.

Under these circumstances, the CHQ has elaborately written a letter to the Department on 26.05.2016, detailing all the problems being existed in Finacle and McCamish and sought remedies within a fort night. In the event of non-settlement, the CHQ has decided to launch the following programme of action culminating to strike action.

10^th June - Demands Day - Demonstration at divisional/branch levels

17^th June - Dharna in front of Circle office.

30^th June - Demonstration in front of Dak Bhawan & issue of strike notice. (The date will be decided with consultation of NFPE & JCA constituents)

The major demands put forth in the programme of action.

1. Provide additional servers and solve the Finacle problem

2. Increase the bandwidth as per the requirement.

3. Implement the decision of Directorate on Business hours.

4. Drop all Memos & Charge sheets issued due to Finacle minor mistake.

5. Implementation of action on all the points put forth in the CHQ letter dated 26.05.2016.

This programme is nothing but to save the Postal Service from the existing chaos and confusions. Even though we desire peace, we have been pushed in to the wall. We could not tolerate furthermore.

All Divisional/Branch and circle secretaries are requested to organize the programme very effectively and intimate compliance. The CHQ will leave no stone unturned in the event of no settlement is seen in this serious issue.

With fraternal greetings,

Comradely yours,

(R. N. Parashar)

Over 3.2 mn central govt employees to go on strike from 11 July

Protest over 'retrograde' and 'negative' recommendations of seventh pay commission

More than 3.2 million employees of the central government would go on indefinite strike beginning 11 July protesting what they call “retrograde and negative” recommendations of the seventh central pay commission.

National Federation of Indian Railwaymen (NFIR) General Secretary M Raghavaiah -- who is also the Chairman of the National Joint Council for Action for all central government employees – said the government’s response to the charter of demands submitted by the trade unions in December 2015 was disappointing and casual.

“Consequently, the organizations of the central government employees – Railways, Defence, Postal, Income Tax, Central Customs & Excise etc – whose number is over 32 lakh, have taken unanimous decision on 3 June 2016 to go on indefinite strike from 11 July 2016,” NFIR said in a statement.

The rail trade union and its affiliate organizations, which represent more than 90 per cent of the railways 1.3 million workers, have also decided to serve strike notice on the General Managers of various railway zones and production units on 9 June in support of the charter of demands.

NFIR was compelled to decide to serve the strike notice, even as it was keen for a negotiated settlement, due to the “procrastination of matters” by the government, NFIR Press Secretary Somnath malik said. He added the pay panel’s recommendations are required to be modified through settlement with employees’ federations in order to maintain industrial relations.

The trade unions’ demands include rejecting all the “retrograde” recommendations of the seventh pay commission; improving minimum wage to Rs 26,000; scrapping the New Pension Scheme; Scrap the recommendations of the Bibek Debroy committee for modernization of Indian Railways; recalling the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) notification of issued in August 2014 in construction, operation and maintenance of railways.

The unions have also demanded the government should scrap all agreements entered into with foreign companies as well as national companies which are detrimental to the interests of railways; scrap the “anti-worker” amendments made in the labour laws; and ensure pay parity in pay structure and promotional scope for all workers in the central ministries.

No. PF-Cadre Restructuring/2016 Dated: 03^rd June, 2016

To

The Secretary,

Department of Posts,

Dak Bhawan,

New Delhi-110 001

Sub: Cadre Restructuring in Department of Posts.

Respected Sir,

I would like to convey my sincere thanks to the Department of Posts for issuing orders of Cadre Restructuring for PA Cadre in Department of Posts vide No.25-04/2012-PE- dated 27th May, 2016.

In this connection I would like to draw your kind attention towards the agreement signed between Postal Administration and Staff Side consisting NFPE and FNPO under which it was assured that the same will be implemented for all cadres in Department of Posts that i.e. RMS, R-III & R-IV, Mailguard, Mail Men, MMS, Postman, PA CO , PA SBCO , Postal Accounts and Postmaster Cadre.

But it is surprising that this has been implemented for Postal Assistant Cadre only in isolation which has created resentment and agitation in the minds of other sections of Department of Posts.

It is therefore requested to kindly bestow your personal attention in this matter and cause appropriate action to get the Cadre Restructuring proposal implemented in all other Cadres of the Department of Posts as mentioned above as early as possible.

An early action is highly solicited.

With regards

Yours faithfully,

(R.N. Parashar)

Secretary General

Show Down Inevitable Due to Attitude of ECoS

* 27-3-11

27* and 3* and 11* have inter connectivity as far as the 7th CPC issues are concerned. Yes the Cabinet Secretary had granted an informal interview to the NJCA leaders on 27th May, 2016 and hinted that there shall not be any change of Fitment Factor from the recommended 2.57 even though there may be a slight enhancement of basic pay of MTS from the 18,000 recommended! He also stated that the Empowered Committee of Secretaries is not likely to agree for the first option recommended by the 7th CPC for Refixation of pension (notional addition of equal number of increments earned before retirement in the pre-revised scale in the replacement scale) on the grounds of objections from the Defense Ministry and Pension Ministry. The Cabinet Secretary also told that more and more Committees for Allowances, HRA, NPS etc may be formed to delay much more time! The stand of the ECoS is most disappointing.

3rd June is the meeting of NJCA. It has to take into account all the developments and go ahead with the earlier decision of show down with the Government on an indefinite strike from 11th July, 2016. There is no option but to go for industrial action on the face of utter disregard to the genuine modifications sought by the Staff Side.

11th June is the reported final sitting of the Empowered Committee of Secretaries. This meeting may give its final nod to the distorted recommendations of the Pay Commission without much change.

This is the connection between 27 – 3 – 11!

There is one more connection to 11th July, the date decided for commencement of strike by the entirety of CG Employees. yes it is on this same date in the year 1960, the historic strike by CG Employees including Railways shook the country in protest against the retrograde recommendations of 2nd CPC!
