GDS/CHQ/41/1/2009 Dated: 16-01-2009 To, Ms. Radhika Doraiswamy, Secretary, Department of Posts, Subject:- Implementation of the agreement reached on 19.12.2008 in the background of the indefinite strike of the GDS employees. Madam, The general G.D.S. employee has begun to feel that the implementation of the assurances and agreement reached on 19.12.2008 which was held in the light of talks of this union with the members of the Group of Officers on 18.12.2008, is being unduly prolonged. THE Group of Officers was expected to submit report by the first week of December 2008. It already more than a month after that schedule. We understand that the Group of Officers has since submitted its report. It would be proper that a copy of the report is made available to us also for our study and consumption. Now, it is time that action is taken immediately for implementation of the assurances including reference to nodal Ministries and to the Cabinet so that orders are issued well before the Code of conduct in view of next general elections are put in place. In this connection we would invite a reference to Dte letter No. 8/12/2008-SR dated 18.12.2008 in which it was intimated that this union will get adequate opportunity to present its views before the matters are processed and sent to Cabinet for approval. Accordingly, our views on final decisions and on Cabinet notes should be taken so that there remains an atmosphere of clarity and transparency. We, therefore, once again request you kindly to take early steps for implementation of the assurances and to ensure that orders are issued by the first week of February 2009. We shall be thankful for a word in response. With regards, Yours faithfully, S.S. Mahadevaiah, General Secretary. Copy forwarded to; 1. All Circle Divisional /Branch Secretaries. 2.
