No.
GS/AIAIASP/Merger/IP-ASP/2013 dated

To,
Ms Trishaljit Sethi,
Dy. Director General
(Estt),
Department of Posts,
Dak Bhavan, Sansad Marg,
New Delhi 110 001.
Subject :
Merger / de-merger of IPO/IRM
cadre minimum working experience about Postal/RMS wing before
promotion to Assistant Superintendent /Superintendent cadre.
Ref. : Dte No. 25-02/2001-PE-I dated 9th
September, 2013
Respected Madam,
Kindly
recall discussion dated 27th November 2013 had with members of this
association on the above cited subject. During the course of discussion it was
brought to your kind notice that, this Association vide letter dated 21/9/2013
and 17/10/2013 has requested to withdraw the compulsory eligible service of 2
years in RMS/Postal side for promotion to the cadre of ASP and a compulsory
service of minimum of 3 years in RMS /Postal side for being eligible for
promotion to the cadre of PS Group B. It was explained in detailed to your
honour that there is huge difference in ratio of posts between the two sides
that would certainly pose practical problems in implementing the orders issued
under Directorate memo No. 25-02/2001-PE-I dated 9th September, 2013.
I am told that Punjab Circle has already reported this problem to Directorate and sought
clarification on this issue pending to which the circle is not ready to convene
the DPC for the promotion from IP to ASP unless the mandatory service
conditions are relaxed.
In
this context, I would like to bring to your kind notice that, the then Member
(P) and OSD to Secretary (Posts) has assured to re-look into the matter by
issuing revised instructions thereon, but till date no revised instructions
have been issued. Now the result is that all the promotions from IP to ASP have
been blocked by circles minimising the promotional prospects of IPs/ASPs in all
the Circles.
It is therefore
once again requested to either arrange to withdrawal the mandatory condition of
service made essential vide Directorate memo No. 25-02/2001-PE-I dated 9th
September 2013 or revised instructions may be issued in the interest of the
cadre and department as assured during meeting at different level.
With New
Years Greetings,
Yours
sincerely,
