CAT case filed in Chandigarh bench was listed for today. The case has been adjourned to 24.05.2011 after having assurance from the department that they will file written reply before the next date of hearing. If department failed to do so we will request Hon’ble court to provide interim relief . In case the department filed the reply the case will be heard on merit.
I am receiving number of calls from my esteemed members to know the nature of case we have filed, whether it is against the PSS Group “B” examination or postmaster cadre. It is for the information of members that the case is neither against any examination nor postmaster cadre. We are fighting for correct calculation of vacancies under each quota and promote the IP/ASP in their respective quota of vacancies. You will agree that there are 866 PSS Group B post, Out of which 649 (75% of total strength) posts have been earmarked for the promotion through seniority cum fitness, 165(19%) through Departmental Limited Competitive Examination from IPO line and 52(6%) from General line official through examination. Now since Postmaster cadre has been carved out by creating 116 posts from general line (see Notification) then why and how the exam is being conducted for 6% general line officials. As far as 19% quota is concerned the roster for this quota is already full. At present 162 of 165 posts are filled, how 32 vacancies have been calculated by the department. Finally we have demanded that there should not be any effect on 649 post earmarked for promotion through seniority. Examination should be held if there is any vacancy in their respective quota and distribution of examination should only be within 25% without effecting 75% quota.
