NFPE SEEKS INTERVENTION OF MOC & IT FOR EARLY APPROVAL OF CABINET ON GDS COMMITTEE

LARGE NUMBER OF TELEPHONE CALLS FROM GDS

 

CABINET MEMO ON GDS COMMITEEE PROPOSALS STILL NOT CLEARED BY THE UNION CABINET

 

NFPE REQUESTED THE INTERVENTION OF HONOURABLE MOC & IT FOR TAKING UP THE ITEM ON PRIORITY

 

 

Headquarters is getting a lot of telephone calls from the GDS employees on the position of GDS Committee proposals. Comrades are asking as to when the orders would be released?  

 

NFPE earlier learnt that any time the Cabinet might clear the proposals. wE got the confirmed information that the Cabinet Note on the proposals of GDS Committee had gone to Central Cabinet but due to large number of issues being numbered for Cabinet consideration, the GDS Cabinet Memo is not yet taken up for approval by the Cabinet.

 

We also learnt that only by the intervention of our Honourable Minister of Communications & IT for taking up the issue on PRIORITY, there is a chance of early approval.

 

NFPE therefore sent a letter by FAX to Sri. A.Raja Honourable Minister of Communications & IT today evening requesting his kind intervention for facilitating approval of GDS proposals on PRIORITY. NFPE also once again requested the Honourable Minister to intervene to sanction the entire arrears in one instalment.

 

We hope that the Honourable Minister of Communications & IT would intervene and ensure early approval of the Cabinet Memo on GDS Committee proposals and issue of early orders. The full text of the letter sent by FAX today evening to the MOC & IT is reproduced below for the information of the rank and file workers:

 

NATIONAL FEDERATION OF POSTAL EMPLOYEES

1st Floor, North Avenue Post Office Building, New Delhi - 110001

 

No. PF-15/2009        Dated 14th August 2009

                    

To

 

Shri. A.Raja

Honourable Minister of Communications & IT

Government of India

New Delhi

 

Sub: Request for expediting Cabinet decision on GDS Committee on priority basis – reg.

 

Sir,

 

National Federation of Postal Employees seeks your personal intervention and use of your good offices for expediting the decision of the Union Cabinet on implementation of GDS Committee recommendations.

 

The proposals of the Postal Department on the recommendations of the Nataraja Murti Committee for three lakhs of GDS Employees have been submitted for the approval of the Union Cabinet after acceptance of the same by the Ministry of Finance.

 

There has been a long delay in processing the recommendations and even after one year of implementation of 6th CPC recommendations for the regular employees, the wage increase for three lakhs of Gramin Dak Sewaks has not been implemented so far. The Gramin Dak Sewaks are eagerly awaiting the announcement from the Government.

 

We are afraid that due to a number of pressing problems the Government of India is burdened to take decisions in the Union Cabinet, the acceptance of the proposals on GDS Committee might be further delayed. We therefore seek your kind intervention and use of your good offices for treating the issue on priority by the Cabinet to avoid further delay. We also seek your personal intervention to facilitate a decision for payment of entire arrears due in one single instalment taking into consideration that already one full year has lapsed in taking a decision.

 

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,
