Sub: - Injustice being done to Gramin Dak Sevak employees – struggle to ward off the danger.
Dear Comrades,
The Gramin Dak Sevak employees have been & victims of grave injustice and naturally a sense of resentment and anger is mounting. The C.H.Q. is flooded with anxious calls regarding the report of the E.D. Committee headed by Sri. R.S. Nataraja Murti and the said committee is taking the entire lot of Gramin Dak Sevaks for a ride. On the other hand we have been making all efforts for early submission of the report. To misguide the GDS employees certain visted interests are trying to spread rumours and are floating false news. This is aimed at creating confusion among the G.D.S employees. We have to guard against the same and ensure rock-like unity and organisation to defeat the ill designs.
Comrades, we have reasons to believe that the G.D.S. Committee, which is taking unduely long time, wishes to exhaust our patience. Or, how could it be that the G.D.S. Committee is taking such a long time. If the 6th Central Pay Commission covering such vast and cross sections of employees including the armed forces and central reserve forces could submit its report well before the allotted time of 18 months, this Committee is taking such a long time. We have reasons to believe that the committee in aiming at drastically reducing the G.D.S. staff and thereby denying due Postal Services to the rural population. We need not overemphasise the fact that consequent on payment of NRGES wages and old age pension through in BOs Post Offices, the work load has increased enormously. Vacancies caused due to retirement etc are not being filled. The situation is grim. Further cut in number of staff will mean unbearable work load and cut in services to rural people.
In order to create a pressure on the concerned authorities and also in order to push back any attempt at staff cut, it is high time that we make sincere efforts with the elected representative of the area through the people we serve including Gram Panchayat functionaries, local leaders and other people that we are saved from the injustice.
We, therefore, call upon you to organise the following programme:-
1. Signature Campaign from 13th to 19th October, 2008. Collected from Gram Panchayat functionaries, local leaders and other gentry. The draft and proforma of the said campaign is attached. Additional copies may be zeroxed.
2. A Convention at divisional head quarters on 20.10.2008, where all signatures, parliamentary Constituency wise should be collected and forwarded to the M.P. of the area. Local leaders and functionaries should be invited to address the Convention where an approach paper (Draft enclosed) should be adopted. A copy the approach paper should be forwarded to the Hon'ble Minister for Communications and the Concerned M.P. of the area.
Comrades, we should remain prepared for still deeper's struggle in November/December 2008, in case the injustice continues or the G.D.S. Committee fails address the demands adequately.
We hope that the Programmes will be organised with all zeal and sincrity which should be a great success.
With Puja and Eid greetings,
Yours faithfully,
(S.S. Mahadevaiah)
General Secretary
