No. PF-17/2018 Dated

To
The Secretary,
Department of Posts,
Dak Bhawan,
New Delhi 110 001.
Sub:
Amendment in Recruitment Rules for the post of Inspector Posts – Reg.
Ref: F No.
7-3/2016- SPB – II dt. 10 th April,
2018.
Sir,
…..
In the Draft Recruitment Rules for the post of Inspector
Posts, in case of recruitment by promotion through
Limited Departmental Competitive Examination, it has been mentioned that,
officials of various grades as prescribed, having
8 years of regular service as on crucial date of eligibility service as
prescribed by the Central Govt. are
eligible for appearing in LDCE.
As per the existing
Recruitment Rules for IP, it was noted as not less than 5 years of regular service as on 1st
January of the year, to which the vacancies pertain to, in the grades of PA/SAs in Grade pay of
Rs.2400/-, Stenographer Grade II ( Grade Pay of Rs.2400/-) and LSG () Grade Pay
of Rs.2800/- including regular service put in as PA/SA in Post offices, RMS offices, RLO,
Foreign Post, SBCO, ICO and MMS.
In this connection we want to put forth the following:-
1.
Now the age limit prescribed for Postal Assistants/Sorting
Assistants is 30 years, with relaxation to SC/ST/OBC as notified by the Govt. of
India from time to time. If an official entering into P.A./S.A. service at the
age of 30/33/35 years as the case may
be, as per the age limit prescribed by the Govt. , then most of them will lost their chance of
elevating into IP Cadre, since the minimum service prescribed in the Draft
revised Recruitment Rules for IP is 8
years. Especially the most oppressed community viz. SC/ST officials will have
no chance to enter into the promotional cadre, which is totally against the
Constitutional privileges and against natural justice. Hence, the minimum
eligibility service should not be revised from 5 years to 8 years.
2.
Now the P.A./S.A. Recruitment Rules are being revised with the
minimum required educational qualification as
Bachelor Degree and mostly the P.A./S.A.s recruited in the recent years are with higher educational
qualification like B.E., B.Tech., M.Sc., M.A. etc. and they are entering to the Department with high expectation for getting promotions.
If this eligibility condition is extended further, they may have better option
for migration into other prospective
areas. Their intellectualness should not be spared out, by extending
the minimum eligibility condition
from 5 years to 8 years.
3.
There are more number of
highly qualified GDS elevated
into P.A./S.A. cadre in the residual vacancies, competing with the open
market candidates with the same age condition and if for any reasons the examinations are not
held in due periodicity, they will lose
their chances of appearing in the IP
examination.
4.
As per the existing
Recruitment Rules for IP, it was noted as
not less than 5 years of regular
service as on 1st January of the year, to which the vacancies
pertain to, but this was left out in the
Draft Recruitment rules, 2018. This will pave way to lose their
chances, in the event of any non
conduction of examinations continuously for
one or two years on any administrative reasons. Hence this
already existing condition should
not be removed.
5.
The Directorate has clarified vide its letter No. 7-8/04-SPB
dated 28-07-2005 that physically handicapped officials should not be allowed to
appear in the IP Examination as they are unable to perform the physically
demanding nature of work. When the issue was discussed in the JCM meeting held
during Dec. 2016, it was replied that the permission from the Social welfare
Ministry is pending. The same may kindly be
considered while amending the Recruitment Rules for Inspector Posts.
Based on the above, we request the Secretary posts to
i.
Drop the proposal to
revise the minimum eligibility condition
of 8 years and to restore the original condition of 5 years as available in the existing recruitment rules .
ii.
The existing eligibility condition of not
less than 5 years of regular service as on 1st January of the
year, to which the vacancies pertain to
, should not be removed/modified.
iii.
Suitable amendment may kindly be made so as to allow the physically handicapped officials
to appear in the IP examination.
With
regards,
Yours
Sincerely
R.N
Parashar
Secretary
General
