Dear Comrades,
The Govt. of India have
recognized the set of office bearers elected by the 7th Conference
of AIPEDEU at Amravathi, Maharastra on 6-8.April, 2012 rejecting false claims
made by few disrupters led by Com. P. Pandurangarao and supported by Postal
Federation leaders.
Congratulations to all the
members of our union, well wishers & supporters who all stood united like
rock behind our union. This victory is the result of our unity. Despite serious
attempt to split our union by leaders of the NFPE, at Mozri, Amaravathi,
Maharashtra at the time of Conference of office bearers elected have been
recognized by the Govt. finally truth has prevailed and falsehood has been
defeated.
As stated in our earlier
circular dated 10.5.2012, the main message of the Amravathi conference was
unity of the AIPEDEU must be preserved at all costs and it should remain our
supreme task in coming days. The forces which tried to disrupt AIPEDEU at
Amravathi are using all foul methods including intimidation, blackmail and
force to compel our members to resign from our union, particularly in West
Bengal and Kerala. All sorts of pressures are being put on them. But till date
they have failed to make any dent.
The AIPEDEU appeals to all
Gramin Dak Sevaks (GDS) irrespective of their political and other views to
continue their membership of AIPEDEU and not to resign from this union. Those
who have resigned under duress are requested to re-enroll themselves in
AIPEDEU. They will be most honoured members of the union.
The new union which these
betrayers and socalled leaders have formed is a hoax. There was no walk out by
delegates at Amravathi. No separate conference was held there. The letter dated
16.4.2012 sent by Com. Panduranga Rao appears to be after thought. It is to
serve the interests of the management & weaken the unity of more than 2.5
lakh GDS in the country who are determined to fight for their rights.
Since issue of recognition is settled the central working
committee and All India Convention is scheduled to be held in Delhi on 23rd
August 2012 and 24 the August 2012 respectively.
All Circle, Divisional, Branch Secretaries are requested to
make arrangements to and pro reservations etc. to attend All India Convention
held in Delhi.
All Circles nearby Delhi mobilize large number of comrades to
participate in the convention and make it success. Three important office
bearers president, secretary and treasurer of the Division/Branch should attend
the convention without fail.
Our Divisional/Branch secretaries are requested to approach
P-III and PIV secretaries of your division and ask them not to disturb the GDS
movement and AIPEDEU which is the only recognized union among the GDS. However
be coutions and alert about the disruptors.
Thousands of GDS and other postal workers should be mobilized and
educated about the demands and about the diabolical attack of Postal federation
leaders on AIPEDEU. The disrupters should be completely exposed, their
nefarious game and consistent betrayal of GDS should be explained to workers.
We should also educate our workers about the future tasks which we have decided
at Amravathi. According to Govt. statistics, 92% of the post offices in the
country are run by GDS. The GDS are therefore real postal workers. The postal
service belongs to them. They should therefore get fair deal from Govt. for
running postal services.
We should be treated as part and parcel of
Postal services.
POSTMEN/MAIL GUARD AND MTS RECRUITMENT RULES ISUED: The avenues of promotion for the GDS staff are very
little. They are appointed as group ‘D’ and postmen on promotion. While,
regarding recruitment as group ‘D’ (now multi functional group ‘C’) there is
not much clarity and have been made to go against the interests of GDS staff as
our quota has been curtailed. Postmen/Mali Guard on promotion 50% revised from
25% to 50% bout this also not much clarity.
A very glaring discrimination is that while everyone not only in our
department but also in other departments is enjoying three automatic promotions,
there is none for the GDS employees. All these are glaring examples of crude
discrimination. We shall have to find a way out of this. We are looking forward
to your suggestion.

Remittance of Quota and
Dues:
Comrades, the position of
receipt of quota by the CHQ is again very disheartening. The Divisional/Branch
union get their subscription every month from the DDO’s but the remittance of
quota to CHQ is rather very casual. The Divisional Presidents and Secretaries
will please ensure timely remittance of quota.
The AIPEDEU will fight much more militantly in future to win long
pending demands.
With greetings
Yours fraternally,
(S.S. Mahadeviah)
General Secretary
