WHAT WE GOT WHAT WE LOST

Finally Postal Directorate vide circular number 4-17/2008-SPB-II dated 22/11/2010 has issued orders to create a separate cadre of Postmasters at the level of LSG, HSG-II, HSG-I and PS Group ‘B’ by carving out these cadres from the existing General Line Cadre posts in Postal Wing and PS Gr. ‘B’ and designated these as Postmaster Gr.I, Postmaster Gr. II, Postmaster Gr. III and Sr. Postmaster.

From the above notification IP/ASP cadre is the most looser as IPs have to forego all HSG I post and 29 Sr. Postmaster posts presently held by IP cadre (Refer September 19 post on this blog under the heading EMERGENT CALL……).The most disturbing aspect of the notification is that 25% of vacancies in the grade of Sr. Postmaster will be filled up by promotion of Postmaster Grade III whereas promotion to Sr. Postmaster cadre from IPs will be through Limited Departmental Competitive Examination(LDCE). Thus 29 posts out of 116 posts of Sr. Postmaster will be filled through promotion of Postmaster Gr.III (General line) and 87 posts will be filled from IP on the basis of LDCE. The officials in PS Gr. “B” and Sr. Postmaster (Gazetted) would be eligible for induction in IPoS Gr ‘A’ on the basis of a consolidated eligibility list.

Is it not direct effect on the prospectus of already depressed IP cadre?

I want to know the reaction and views of all IP/ASP on above notification through comments on this blog so that this issue may be discussed in detail in the ensuing CWC meeting.
