All the Branch Secretaries and Divisional Secretaries and CWC Members please note the Circle Union has decided for a Dharna on 03.04.2016 (Sunday) at Shimla to protest against the apathetic approach of the Circle Administration as well as Divisional Administrations to the issues cropped after rolling out of post offices on CBS and McCamish. Please note, there is no option as our correspondence and appeals are shelved by the authorities. The only way out is the struggle!!! Kindly ensure total participation by all the postal employees of Himachal Pradesh.

Respected
Sir,
A kind reference is invited to your D.O
letter No Union/2-1/2010 dated 09.02.2016 and this Union letter No even dated
17.02.2016.
In your D.O letter mentioned above a
para wise reply was conveyed to this Union and in the concluding para , your
goodself has advised not to resort an activity of organising Dharna to avoid
unnecessary bitterness in the presently healthy, friendly and co-operative
relations between the administration and the union.
I spoke to your goodself on
17.02.2016 and emphasized the need for holding bilateral dialogues to ensure
mitigation of the problems being faced by the staff after rolling out to CBS
and introduction of McCamish. Your goodself assured to hold such meetings at
the earliest.
This Union keeping in view the
discussions and the contents contained in the DO letter after consulting the
Circle Working Committee Members deffered the programme of Dharna conveyed vide
this Union letter No even dated 17.02.2016 with the firm hope that the Circle
Administration will take a positive view and hold a meeting to discuss the
issues at the earliest.
A period of one month has been
passed , there has been no communication on the issue from your office neither
there is any let up in the hardship being faced by the staff.
The poor staff in the CBS offices is
working helplessly as a bounded labour. More than sixty per cent offices are functioning beyond 2100 hours struggling
for completion of daily work. Despite, an assurance the operative staff has to
approach for CSAC of the user / supervisor ID beyond duty hours and there seems
to be none to attend them. The frequent failure of Finacle server and McCamish
are compounding the miseries of the operative staff. Till date, many of the CBS
offices are working without laser printers and even with the old / obsolete
computers resulting delay in completion of work. No doubt, there are instructions
for grant of OTA but till date none of the Divisional Head in the Circle has
issued any such instruction or has
allowed an hour OTA to the staff performing duties in the late hours. No doubt
the new computers have reached in the Divisions; the concern of the Divisional
Heads can well be confirmed by confirming the date of installation of these new
computers which are still lying in the Divisional Offices.
The bandwidth seems to have been
enhanced in the papers as till date there is no improvement.
There is strong resentment amongst
the staff over rolling out the post offices without providing required
infrastructure and training to the staff. Recently, in Hamirpur Division, 26
post offices have been rolled in one go and many officials of these offices are
not imparted training. Despite the fact that many offices are working without
UPS/faulty UPS and even the computers are working on direct supply posing
security threats to computers. Government of India as well as our Department
have made provisions for bilateral discussions with the staff Union by way of
holding four monthly / RJCM meetings and in HP Circle no such meeting has been
held for last one year.
Since, there is no relief and no way
out , this Union in consultation with all the Circle Working Committee Members
and branch secretaries is constrained to decide for a day long
Dharna on 03.04.2016 at Shimla
as a mark of protest and to focus the concern of staff over the apathetic
approach on the issues.
Yours
sincerely,
(H S Guleria)
