SELL OF GOLD COINS RISES FOR AKSHAY TRITIYA

Department of Posts witnessed a huge rush of gold buyers in the tastefully decorated jewellery showrooms as well as banks and postal department offices on the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Tritiya on Tuesday. Over 100kg of gold worth around Rs 30 crore was bought by the Patnaites.

Various offers, gifts and discounts offered by the jewellers and the postal department coupled with marriage demand resulted in sales this year increasing by over 40% compared to 2011. Moni Shankersengupta, area business manager of Tanishq, Bihar, told TOI that by Tuesday evening they had sold over 18kg of gold worth around Rs 5 crore here. "The affordable diamond range launched by us on the occasion in the price bracket of Rs 10,000 to Rs 25,000 was the most sought-after item this year."

To lure buyers, jewellers here offered a variety of products for all sections of society keeping in mind their purchasing power. "Buyers with deep pockets gave preference to precious and semi-precious stones studded gold jewellery, while those with budget constraints went for token purchases like nose pins, earrings, rings, 'jhumka', pendents and gold coins ranging from 1 gram to 50 grams," said Sachin Gupta, owner, Ginni Jewellers, at Boring Road. He recorded 35% higher sales this year compared to 2011.

Shailendra Kumar of Nakshatra at P & M mall told TOI that last year, gold prices on Akshaya Tritiya was Rs 21,700 per 10 gram, whereas this year it has gone up and reached Rs 28,900 per 10 gram. "But price was the least concern of the gold shoppers here," said Kumar, adding, "Whereas aged people preferred buying gold bars and coins as investment, youngsters were looking for lightweight jewelleries."


Several banks also recorded brisk business. Bank of India's marketing head, Patna zone, Chandan Kumar said, "We sold around 4kg of gold on Akshaya Tritiya this year, making a profit of over Rs 1.5 crore." AK Mohanty, chief manager, State Bank of India, said, "Looking at the fluctuating stock market, people now prefer investing in gold as its price tends to increase. So, this year we sold around 400 gold coins, totalling over 5kg.

The postal department was not left behind. Anil Kumar, marketing director, postal department, said, "There was a huge rush of gold buyers throughout the day. We sold over 13kg of gold. Coins of 0.5 gram and 1 gram were in great demand. We sold over 2,500 gold coins of various weights on a single day."

3.86 crore Aadhaar cards in process of being delivered: Government

NEW DELHI: The government today said as many as 3.86 crore Aadhaar letters are in the process of being dispatched while 6.46 lakh cards could not be delivered by the postal department due various reasons such as incomplete address.

As on April 20, 2012 a total of 17 crore Aadhaar numbers had been generated and 10.44 crore have been dispatched, Minister of State for Planning Ashwani Kumar said in a written reply in the Lok Sabha.

"Out of these (10.44 crore letters), 6.58 crore Aadhaar letters have been delivered as reported by India Post and the remaining 3.86 crore letters are in transit," Kumar, who is also Minister of State for Science and Technology and Earth Science said.

He further said that as per the portal of the Department of Posts, the total returned letters as on April 20, 2012, stood at 6.46 lakh. This is 0.98 per cent of total Aadhaar letters delivered.

"There are five reasons for returned letters -- refused, deceased, insufficient address, addressee cannot be located and unclaimed," he said adding there was no bogus Aadhaar registrations.

"The letter being returned are having clear remarks of the concerned postman of the area and they are one of the five mentioned reasons...," he said.

Mandate of UIDAI is to issue Aadhaar numbers to all residents of India.

Aadhaar aims to provide a identity infrastructure which can be used to improve delivery of public services.

SWEET MEMORIES OF 6TH BIENNIAL CONFERENCE HELD AT JATNI MDG ON 22ND APRIL 2012

COUNTING OF SERVICE RENDERED BY RESERVE TRAINED POOL (RTP) PERSONNEL PRIOR TO THEIR REGULAR APPOINTMENT AS POSTAL ASSISTANTS (PAs)/SORTING ASSISTANTS (SAs)-REGARDING.

D.G. Posts No. 44-1/2011-SPB.II dated 12 April, 2012.

I am directed refer to Directorate’s letter of even number dated 13.1.2011 on the above subject and to say that the issue of counting of service rendered by Reserve Trained Pool(RTP) personnel prior to their regular appointment as Postal Assistants(PAs)/Sorting Assistants (SAs) for promotion, seniority and grant of MACP was under consideration of the Directorate.

2.The RTP Scheme was introduced in the year 1980 as per which a panel of such persons was retained who could not be covered under the number of vacancies declared for regular appointment as PA/SA. When required they were detailed on duty on wages to be paid on hourly basis to meet the short time needs and current needs. The said RTP personnel were given priority for absorption against vacancies, which occurred subsequently. In the year 1983 the RTP personnel were given an option to opt for servicing Army Postal Services (APS).Such persons who opted so were appointed as PA/SA on ad-hoc basis and deputed to APS. The said RTP candidates deputed to APS were eligible to get the benefit of regular appointment in the Civil Post. The RTP scheme was abolished w.e.f. 4.3.1986.

3. While furnishing the information asked for from the Circles, the Orissa Circle has brought to the notice of the Directorate that three OAs filed by three officials in the Cuttack Bench of Hon`ble CAT seeking regularization of the services rendered under RTP scheme were dismissed on 10.4.2003 for the reason that the issue raised has already been decided by the Apex Court on 1.8.1997 in the case of UOI and another Vs K. Sivados and others in C.A. No. 80-123 of 1996

4. It is observed that Apex Court in their judgment dated 01.08.1997 has discussed the case in detail and has rejected the case for grant of Productivity Linked Bonus to RTP personnel. As regards grant of benefit of counting their services as RTP personnel for the purpose of their eligibility to appear for the departmental examination the Hon`ble Supreme Court in the same judgment has observed that the relevant rule provides that the candidate “ must have put in at least five years continuous satisfactory service in one or more eligible cadres” and hence pronounced that any service rendered by RTP personnel prior to their regular appointment in the cadre cannot count for the purpose of the said rule because it can not be considered as service in any eligible cadre. Thus, the Apex Court has held that Tribunal was wrong in granting to RTP personnel the benefit of service rendered by them prior to their regular appointment, for the purpose of their eligibility to appear for the departmental promotion examination.

5. In another case Hon`ble Supreme Court in C.A. No. 5739 of 2005 in the case of UOI Vs Shri Mathivanan vide their judgment dated 9.6.2006 has held that ad-hoc service rendered in APS by RTP personnel should be counted for the purpose of grant of financial upgradation under TBOP scheme. This was mainly due to the fact that the said Scheme did not mention the requirement of ‘regular service’ in para 1 of the Scheme for being eligible for grant of financial upgradation under TBOP scheme .In fact, the Hon1ble Supreme Court observed that it was not a case where promotion to the higher post is to be made only on the basis of seniority. Keeping in view the Apex Court’s decision in M. Mathivanan’s case and the fact the TBOP is not to be granted on the basis of seniority, it was decided to extend the benefit of the Apex Court’s order to similarly placed serving officials vide Directorate’s letter No. 93-25/2003-SPB.II dated 26.7.2010.

6. As per MACP scheme, the officials are eligible for grant of three financial upgradations on completion of 10, 20 and 30 years of service respectively. For the purpose, it has been laid down that ‘regular service’ for the purpose of the MACPs shall commence from the date of joining of a post in direct entry grade on a regular basis either on direct recruitment basis or on absorption /re-employment basis. It has been categorically stated that the service rendered on ad-hoc/contract basis before regular appointment on pre-appointment training shall not be taken into reckoning.

7. In view of the judgment dated 01.08.1997 delivered in C.A. 80-123 1996 in the case of UOI & another Vs K.N.Sivados and others and provisions contained in MACP scheme, it has been decided by the Competent Authority that the service rendered under RTP scheme by the personnel prior to their regular appointment as PA/SA can not be counted for promotion , seniority and grant of MACP.

 

8. The above decision may be taken into consideration while defending the court case. The representations received on the subject may also be dealt with accordingly.

Fraudster sentenced to 28 yrs' jail, fined Rs 22L

: The prime accused in four different cases of serious nature has been sentenced to rigorous jail term for 28 years and pay a fine of Rs 22 lakh.
Shriram Shende was held guilty in a fraud case worth Rs 22 lakh related to the postal department. The accused was 33 years old at the time of committing the fraud. Now he is 60. Delivering the judgment on Wednesday evening, special judge NV Deshmukh sentenced the accused to 7 years' rigorous imprisonment and pay a fine of Rs 2 lakh under section 420 of IPC. He will have to suffer 5 years' jail and pay a fine of Rs 2 lakh each under sections 466 and 468 of IPC in another case.
Shende and the other accused were acquitted of the charges of conspiracy under 120B of IPC and section 5(i)(d) and 5(2) of Prevention of Corruption Act. The Central Bureau of Investigation had filed four sets of chargesheets against Shende and others. Shende has been convicted and sentenced to similar jail term and pay a fine of Rs 2 lakh in three cases each. He has to undergo sentences consecutively.
Shende had committed a fraud through ledger folio in saving bank department of the post office by collecting deposits. The fraud was first noticed on July 9, 1985 when a cheque of Rs 20,000 came for clearance while the balance in the account of the accused was only Rs 178. He opened accounts of himself, his brother Ramkrishna, three minor sons Gajanan, Ramakant, Umakant and minor daughter Maya and committed a fraud.
Shende, his brother Ramkrishna Badge, Bhimrao Deshmukh, Vitthal Kode and Suresh were the accused in the fraud. Accused Bhimrao Deshmukh has died.
The property of Shende was seized and auctioned. The proceeds of Rs 4 lakh were credited to the government account. Now an amount of Rs over 17 lakh has to be recovered from the accused.
Arguing before the court, CBI's special prosecutor Subhash Kate said Shende systematically committed a fraud of Rs 22 lakh through ledger folio system by opening fictitious accounts while working in the post office.
In all 36 witnesses were examined. Of them, 18 were of postal department, 12 property owners, Sureshchandra Lohiya and P Bhagwandas, the sanctioning authority. Lawyer Motisingh Mohta defended the accused.

NO MONEY OBSTRUCTION .

The Department of Post (DoP) is on a technology upgrade drive. The department plans to set up 1,000 automated teller machines (ATMs) across six states —Assam, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu — as part of its ongoing modernisation drive, said Manjula Parasher, secretary, posts.

“We will start execution of our modern technology programme across six circles by the end of this year,” said Parasher. “This will help in people getting core banking facility etc. We plan to have 1,000 ATMs in a phased manner. The process for this will start by the year-end.”

The DoP has selected five major technology companies for five of its technology advancement projects.It has issued a Letter of Intent to Infosys for two projects including rural system and financial services integration; Tata Consultancy Services for change management; Sify for network integration and Reliance Communications Infrastructure for data centre.

The department plans to start execution of some of these projects by end of this year across six states on a pilot basis.It has already received approval for Rs 1,877 crore to be spent across these projects over a period of two years and will seek additional funds when the need arises.“Funds of Rs 1,877 crore have been approved,” said Parasher. “We will go ahead with that. We may need more money because implementation in some of the cases may last over six-nine years.”The department will computerise all of its 1.6 lakh post offices across the country by 2013 with over 24,000 department post offices already computerised by March.

250 computerised post offices in J-K

I AM A SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR , AND I AM A VALUELESS PERSON IN THIS DEPARTMENT .

Friend ! as the title itself shows some negativity , but the reality is something more bitter than the title. Starting from year 2000, the early days of computerisation in this postal department , to the self sufficient fully computerised computerised department of the present era , one should not forget the role of  " SYSTEM ADMINISTRATORs " .  But SAs are being treated as just like a " MULTI - SKILLED " Group - D employee in every division of India Post .  No one , neither the divisional authorities , nor the policy makers are worried about the SAs . In fact 11 long years have been passed . But still the postal manual is silent about the duties , responsibilities &  facilities  of the SAs . 11 years time is not a short span of time . Department of post is extracting the job of a professional software engineer in the salary of a PA. It is better to sit in the counters , But when you are asking to provide service by travelling from  one SO. to the other spending money from your own pocket, rising from early morning and preparing your travel plan for reaching your destination office.No body will bother for the communication facilities, but it is expected to reach there in time . No doubt , there is the provision of TA and DA . But it depends on the grace of the divisional administrators . In most of the cases SAs have to wait for the month of  March of the next year for your legitimate claim . Still then your bill will go through a tight scrutiny. No body will care how you are managing your expenditures. Most of the place one SAs visits are not good communicated areas . Hence you have to arrange your personal means of communication . But suddenly the officials sitting under fans at division office will object your bill by saying that you are not going to be sanctioned bike mileage over 300 KMs . That means , you can't afford bike in your job  . But usually SAs are forced over phone to proceed immediately from HQ to a far of place . It is not matter for the officials having so called higher ranks , that how the SA will proceed ? Whether there is any means of communication or not  ? Another thing is that there is a strong belief that, SAs are the officials having magic hands . Whenever one SA touches one problematic unit , it will be rectified immediately with one touch. This problem arises only because of the lack of technical knowledge with the divisional office staffs and the heads. Department is emphasising upon the computerisation . Everyday one new software is coming , up gradation files are coming  . But the department has never thought that the personnel who are implementing all these things are being managed by somebody who is completely ignorant of software s and working procedure of a SA .

                                                                     Now single handed SOs  are computerised  , Where the volume of transaction is almost negligible . But still department is spending around a lakh for a office. Are not this bad expenditures ? But the department have never thought that how this huge number of systems are being managed with the constant or decreasing number of SAs ? The number of computers have been increased but the Number of SAs are constant. All the SAs are not designated Purely as SAs . They are PAs who will work as SA. That means your controlling authority will definitely use you as a PA .

                                                                    Not only the administrative staffs , the SAs are betrayed by their own colleagues also . Nobody tries to do work systematically or to do according to the instructions of the SAs. So the problem in software arises frequently. And the SO. staff only reports the SA that such and such error message is showing come immediately wherever you are doesn't matter. Where some of your colleagues closes their single handed SOs before 14.00 hrs. and goes home , SAs have no time limit and excuses .
                                       If the question , " would you like to be a SA ? "will be put before every officials of this department, their answer will be certainly , " NO " . That's why every SAs can shamefully say that        " I AM A SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR , AND I AM A VALUELESS PERSON IN THIS 
DEPARTMENT . "

PAY RULLINGS

1.     Pay & Allied Issues

1.      What are all the conditions for claiming stepping up of Pay with juniors?

Ø  (i) Both senior and junior must be in the same cadre in identical pay scales and also in the same recruiting unit.

(ii) Posts to which they are promoted must also be identical and same.

(iii) At the time of promotion, senior must be getting equal or more pay than junior.

(iv) Anomaly should be direct result of application of FR 22 (c) or any pay fixation rules.

2.      How option can be made for pay fixation on date of promotion which will be advantageous?

Ø  As per the revised pay rules, if the promotion is in between 2^nd July to 31^st December, his next increment will be from 1^st July of the same year. If the promotion is accorded in between 1^st Jan to 30^th June in a year, his increment will be drawn only in the next year. So, one has to carefully study before making option for pay fixation at the time of promotion.

3.      What is the restriction under FR 35 for officiating pay when a Government is ordered to work in higher posts?

Ø  As per DOPT OM No. F/1/4/2009 - Estt (pay I) dt. 08.03.2010, for employees receiving pay in the pay band up to Rs.14880 PM (our cases), 15% of the basic pay subject to a maximum of Rs. 2000/- PM (including the difference of grade pay between the feeder and the promotional post). The annual increment @ 3% of the basic pay so fixed shall be granted.

4.      What are all the cases which will not construe under the pay anomalies?

Ø   (i) Senior getting less pay in lower post due to postponement of date of next increment on account of his proceeding on extraordinary leave.

(ii) Senior refusing promotion leading to early promotion of the junior and later promotion of the senior.

(iii) Junior getting higher pay in lower post due to adhoc arrangements.

(iv) Senior joining higher post later and getting lower pay.

(v)  Senior appointed to lower post later than the junior but getting promoted earlier than the junior.

(vi) Senior direct recruits getting less pay than the junior promotees whose pay is fixed with reference to pay last drawn.

(vii)Junior getting more pay due to additional increments earned on acquiring higher qualifications.

(DOP&T OM No. 4/7/92 – Estt (Pay I) dt. 04.11.93)

5.      Whether stepping up of pay can be allowed second time with another official?

Ø  As per DOPT order dated 22.07.1985, the benefit of stepping up of pay can be allowed to senior official second time, provided the anomaly has arisen with reference to the pay of the same junior, with reference to whom the pay of the senior was stepped up first time. As such there is no provision to step up with another person directly.
