CHQ/POA/28/2021-23 Dated

Sub: - Regarding long pending issues of Postal
Officers Association (India).
Respected Sir,
All India CWC of POA (I) is scheduled to be held on
17/18.09.2022 at New Delhi. Prior to meeting it is necessary for the
association to know the latest update on long pending issues. Few issues are
listed below:-
1. Convening of JTS DPC meeting.
DPC for promotion to the cadre of JTS Gr’A’ for the
year 2017-18 onwards has not been declared so far the reasons best known to
administration. Resultantly, the officers in the line of consideration are
being discriminated financially and are construing denial of fixation in
seniority at a relevant place of the given vacancy year.
Moreover non-convening of timely DPCs in JTS Cadre
and non posting of STS officers by issuing necessary orders on vacant post in
circles years together is placing burden on PS Group B officers either of adhoc
arrangement or working thereto on downgraded posts without substantial benefits
that too in contravention to DOP&T instruction. Authorities empowered to
make adhoc-promotion to Group B only up-to three months (Directorate letter no.
4-9/88-SPG dated 14.10.1989) are exceeding their powers on their own without
obtaining specific approval from DOP&T.
It is therefore earnestly request to take action
for completing the process of DPC adding the vacancies for the year 2016-17
calculated wrongly against 75% quota. Also kindly put in orders to start the
process for convening DPC for the year 2018 and onwards taking into
consideration all the vacant post of JTS/STS/JAG.
