MAY DAY CELEBRATIONS AT VARIOUS CIRCLES













Thursday, May 1, 2025

 

MAY DAY MANIFESTO AND COMING STRIKE

ON 20 MAY-2025

 May Day Greetings and best wishes to our employees of Postal Department irrespective of Political Colours and union. Special thanks and revolutionary greetings to the readers of Postal Crusader and also our organisers, leadership. Red Salute to the Martyrs of May Day. We also extending Red Salute to the Martyrs in different sectors, main organisers who have sacrificed their lives in the interest of working class. The working has been spilling the sweat and blood for centuries to protect the rights, dignity and honour. The seeds of sacrifice sown by the Hey Market Martyrs unified the entire working class of the world, reminding and inspiring every year to continue the saga of struggle against the injustice, inequality and exploitation. May Day celebrations have become more and more relevant each year on the face of onslaught of anti-employ and working policies of the govt.

If we review the national and international scenario, we will see that year changes but the resolution of the working class remains the same. Poverty, unemployment, price-rise, wage-cut, absence or curbing of social security etc. are the common phenomenon across the world, except a few socialist country. Year after year this is our common experience. Again, if we consider the sequence of events, we will see the same tradition. The “Post Office Act-2023” has come into effect from June 2024. It replaced the 125 years old Indian Post Office Act 1898. The Govt. described this as an act of the Parliament of India to consolidate and amend the law relating to Post Office in India along with expansion and modernization of its services.

Postal services come under the Union List of the Constitution.  The Indian Post Office Act, 1898 regulates the postal services offered by the central government.  It grants the central government exclusive privilege over conveying of letters. A Bill passed by Parliament in 1986 sought to align the grounds for interception of an article being transmitted through post with the reasonable restrictions on the fundamental rights under the Constitution.  The Bill did not receive the assent of the President and was later withdrawn. Even in 2006, Standing Committee of the Parliament headed by Com Somenath Chatterjee clearly told exclusive privilege of letter mails must be retained by the Govt to face challenges coming from courier services of the corporates.

So, what ever be Govt’s declaration, this act is nothing but blue print of corporatization and there by privatization of Postal Department. Against such motive National Federation of Postal Employees (NFPE) went on unprecedented Strike on 10th august 2022 and the Govt retreated at that time. After that derecognizing NFPE and its most powerful affiliate All India Postal Employees Union, Gr C on fake concocted grounds, the Govt is now came out with massive attack on Postal Department with renewed vigour.       

            Mainly after 1991, if we have a look in last three decades, we would see how the Govt. of India slowly but steadily tried to implement the prescription of so called new liberal economic policy in Postal Department. Amendment to Post Office and Courier Service bill, Corporate Plan for India Post, Introduction of franchise outlets and National Postal Policy 2012 were amongst them. But still there was some restriction which has no trace in Modi-regime.

RMS/MMS are backbone of Postal Department. During Corona the Department introduced private service i.e Road Transport Network (RTN) in absence of railway communication. There was an understanding that this system will be discontinued when railway will be normal. But now when a well-established time-tested existing network Railway (RMS) section and Air Ports are there, but RTN has been increased and that too for distant areas. For sorting of speed post and registered/ordinary letters there are separate offices (HUB). But now Department unilaterally ordered that all speed post and registered articles will be sorted in same Hub. These unilateral orders of Department will only ensure abolishing more than 100 sorting offices for registered articles. Not only that it will seriously tell upon the efficiency and on-time servicing thereby affecting the entire Department in terms of work order and revenue generation, besides affecting the concerned employees in various ways. Already apart from Departmental organization, Confederation of Central Govt Employees and Workers, different Central Trade Unions like CITU, AITUC expressed their resentment and appealed to the Govt to refrain from such type of anti-people activities.

In most cases to streamline the system, decentralization is the accepted principle through the world. In our department too it was time tested practice to deliver the postal goods to the customers from all the delivery offices. But now Department has imported the idea from British Royal Mails and accordingly formed Nodal Delivery Centers for delivery of Parcel and Central Delivery Center of Speed Post Letters. This is the basic reason for delayed deliver.

It is informed by the Department that there is lack of monitoring mechanism to supervise delivery work in 19500 delivery offices. Further, implementation for delivery of parcel through NDC (Nodal Delivery Centre) resulted improvement the delivery of parcels. This CHQ disagreed with this. Quality of supervision with honestly solves the issue of monitoring of delivery. Success of NDC may also examine through ground reality by the Department.

At present, delivery work is done and supervised by the Post Offices. There is no difficulty whatsoever in doing and supervising the delivery work in addition to the counter operations at every Post Office. Post Offices are the symbols of both the counter and delivery work and the Supervisors, Postal Assistants and MTS staff at the counters as well as the delivery Postman and the Supervisors, PAs and MTS staff etc. at the delivery areas are earmarked to their respective work and performing well. There is no need to bifurcate this by the formation of IDCs (Independent Delivery Centers). The authorities are to ensure the proper manning of the leave absenteeism which they cannot do with the policy of the Government to reduce the LR percentage and deliberately keeping the offices understaffed. This is the main reason for the hiccups in the functioning of the Post Offices and bifurcating in the name of IDCs or delivery work is not going to solve the problem at all. Moreover, numbers of delivery offices are going to be attached with the idea of IDCs and this experiment will bring more delay to the delivery work as experienced by the pilot schemes in one or two places. The Postal system is best but the authorities are following courier practices which is proven to be inferior to the Postal System.

We can see that the Postmen staff are asked to do the PA work and take delivery of all accountable articles in the computers instead of assigning proper PAs to the spots of leave availing PAs, which is a common sight in the delivery areas of Post Offices. The issue is to clean these perennial problems and not establishing a separate IDC. The action of the Department is like giving fomentation in areas where the fomentation is absolutely not needed, the need is to give fomentation where there is pain at present

Everybody knows in the name of IPPB limited how sustained attack is going on our small savings. Even after that common men are investing their money in small savings. In financial year 2021 to 2022 total deposit in POSB was 12.54 Lac which maintains the growth for next period also. Postal Life Insurance (PLI) was introduced back in the year 1984. Only in 2020-21, it has Rs. 8087 Cr as total premium deposited. The Rural PLI deposit was Rs. 2820 Cr during the same time. From the facts and figures, it is clear enough as to why the Govt. and share market giants are greedy to somehow draw the Small Savings and Insurance money from Post Office to share market. If the deposits of the Small Savings and PLI are taken over by the IPPB Ltd (India Post Payment Bank Ltd), it would be a huge inflow of money and a surge of hope for the IPPB Ltd, so is for the corporates.  

We have to keep in mind that the Modi-Govt is moving with privatization spree. Be in service sectors, infrastructure financial sectors, power sectors everywhere in the name of National Monetization Pipeline Policy (NMOP). Even when 3rd Modi-Govt has failed to achieve absolute majority, its attitude towards outsourcing, corporatization and privatization remains unchanged, rather intensified. Under this back ground we have to consider “The Post Office Act-2023” and also build up, from class outlook under the leadership of National Federation of Postal Employees (NFPE) united struggle irrespective of unions and associations so that the Central Govt is compelled to withdraw this retrograde act. Merger of two GDS union is a great achievement to increase our strength. We are sure in our journey we will get support people of this country and also sectorial trade unions and Central Trade Unions.

Labour Code is nothing but to create Trade Union free India to maximise the profit of the monopoly Corporates. The Working Class will have no right to protests against the policies of the Govt.  These rights achieved so far at the cost of blood, sweat and death. Dept. Most deliberately and in a vindictive way has derecognized NFPE/AIPEU Gr.-C and they are not implemented the stay order of Jharkhand High Court against derecognition order. Once Labour Code is implemented there will be no difference between ‘recognition’ or derecognition ‘for those who oppose Govt. policies. So, without fail this Labour Code in to be halted. Union supporting anti people Govt, Policies will only be allowed to function. Derecognition NFPE/AIPEU Group-C, Dept is implementing all anti. Employees Policies like the Post Office Act 2023 etc.

            In these circumstances, PJCA has been formed. PJCA means a common platform of NFPE, FNPO and their GDS Union, since January 2025 under the banner of PJCA we are observing series of organizational programme. Even PJCA has staged dharna programme on 3rd March in Jantar Mantar, New Delhi. Our Charter of demands is ready. We will issue Strike Notice on 2nd May-2025 with the clear understanding to take part in Strike on 20 May to save our department, its employees and also to protect the interests of common men taking service from our department. Let us now carry forward intensive and extensive campaign programme across the Country on our Charter of demands

We will build up struggle and Strike, and we will win.
