LEGAL BATTLE
&
ORGANIZATIONAL STRUGGLE
BY
NFPE & AIPEU GDS (NFPE)
Postal JCA (NFPE, FNPO, AIPEU GDS (NFPE) & NUGDS) has already declared indefinite strike from 6th May 2015 for the settlement of 39 point charter of demands in which “INCLUSION OF GDS UNDER 7th CPC” is the demand No.1, in the Parliament March conducted by Postal JCA more than 15,000 Postal, RMS employees including Gramin Dak Sevaks participated.
WHERE IS THE RESPECTFUL AGREEMENT OF THE RECOGNIZED GDS UNION ............ ????????
Nine months are over after appointment of 7th Pay Commission, but GDS are not included in the 7th CPC and no action is taken to review the wages and service conditions of 2.76 lakh GDS.
The recognized GDS Union leader (shri Mahadevaiah) has claimed that he has signed a “RESPECTFUL AGREEMENT” with the Govt. and he garlanded and gave bouquet to the Hon’ble Communications Minister and Secretary, Department of Posts.
But where is the “RESPECTFUL AGREEMENT” .....?????
Is the word “WILL CONSIDER” can be called as “respectful agreement”.......??????
When ever some body submit some memorandum to Minister or Postal Board, the reply given as “will consider”.
The same words are used in the agreement signed by Shri Mahadevaiah, is it a “Respectful agreement” …..????
The same words are used in the agreement signed by Shri Mahadevaiah, is it a “Respectful agreement” …..????
Now the recognized GDS union leader is telling Govt has violated the agreement and misguiding the GDS to save his face.
Shri Mahadevaiah now understood that only a joint struggle by NFPE and Postal JCA can settle the GDS demands.
With out NFPE & AIPEU GDS (NFPE) the fragmented strike of recognized GDS Union will not yield any result.
With out NFPE & AIPEU GDS (NFPE) the fragmented strike of recognized GDS Union will not yield any result.
Recognized GDS union should admit it openly without cheating the GDS, any further.
RECOGNIZED GDS UNION HAS LOST ITS CREDIBILITY.

Section 44 of the Lokpal
and Lokayuktas Act, 2013 mandates that every public servant (as defined in the
Act, which includes Ministers, Members of Parliament, Government employees,
employees of statutory bodies, PSUs, etc.) shall make a declaration of his
assets and liabilities as well of his spouse and dependent children in the
manner as provided by or under the said Act. In exercise of the powers
conferred by sub-section (1) read with clause (k) and clause (l) of sub-section
(2) of section 59 of the Lokpal and Lokayuktas Act, 2013 (1 of 2014), read with
section 44 and section 45 of the said Act, the Central Government has notified
the Public Servants (Furnishing of Information and Annual Return of Assets and
Liabilities and the Limits for Exemption of Assets in Filing Returns) Rules,
2014 in the official Gazette on 14th July, 2014, which, inter alia, contain the
forms in which such information/return is required to be filed.
Subsequently, concerns
and apprehensions were raised by several Ministries/Departments and other
stakeholders, inter alia, about the complexity involved in furnishing the
desired details in the forms prescribed under the Rules. Accordingly, the
Government of India vide its order dated 28-08-2014, constituted a Committee to
simplify the forms and the process in which public servants shall make
declaration of assets and liabilities. The said Committee has submitted its
First Report on 01-10-2014, recommending simplified formats for declaration of
moveable property and for declaration of debts and other liabilities by public
servants.
The Public Servants
(Furnishing of Information and Annual Return of Assets and Liabilities and the
Limits for Exemption of Assets in Filing Returns) Rules, 2014 have also been
amended by a notification dated 8th September, 2014, by which the time limit,
for furnishing of such information/return by public servants, has been extended

OBCS IN GOVERNMENT SERVICES

Public Grievances & Pensions
OBCs in Government Services
As per information
received from various Ministries/ Departments till date, the representation of
Other Backward Classes (OBCs), as on 01.01.2013, in 69 Central Government Ministries/Departments
was 5,23,721 which is 17.74% of 29,52,080 employees.
The reasons for lower
representation of Other Backward Classes in services are identified as under-:
(i) Reservation for Other Backward Classes started only from the
year 1993.
(ii) Other Backward Classes candidates who were appointed up to
1993, that is before introduction of reservation for the Other Backward
Classes, are not included for counting the representation.
(iii) There is generally a time gap between occurrence of
vacancies and filling thereof as recruitment is a time consuming process.
(iv) Some reserved posts for Other Backward Classes remain
vacant due to non-availability of suitable candidates of reserved category.
(v) Some of the selected Other Backward Classes candidates do
not join the service or leave the service after joining because they get better
opportunities elsewhere.
Reservation in Central Government jobs for Other Backward
Classes, Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes employees is provided at the
rate of 27%, 15% and 7.5%, respectively. As per information received till date
from 69 Ministries/ Departments, the representation of Other Backward Classes,
Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes as on 01.01.2013, was 17.74%, 17.57% and
7.73%, respectively.
Instructions have been
issued in June, 2013 to all concerned to make concerted efforts to fill up the
backlog reserved vacancies. A committee was constituted under the Chairmanship
of Secretary, Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment to analyse the reasons
for less employability of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward
Classes in Government sector and to suggest remedial measures. Keeping in view
the recommendations of the Committee, various time bound measures have been
identified and intimated to concerned Ministries/Departments to fill up such
backlog vacancies.
This was stated by Minister of State for Personnel, Public
Grievances & Pensions Dr. Jitendra Singh in a written reply to Kumari
Shobha Karandlaje in the Lok Sabha today.
