Respected Madam, 

Sub: Irregular and illegal Disciplinary action against innhocent GDS staff – case of Koppal, Gadag division in N.K. Region, Karnataka Circle.

This is about irregular and illegal Disciplinary action being contemplated at Gadag division in Karnataka Circle where our innocent and poor GDS are victims.  This issue also has been discussion with the CPMG Karnataka Circle on 15.09.2014 by our circle representatives.  The matter to undo injustice done to the GDS staff, But it is regretted to inform you that a few more put off duty cases (More than 145 innocent GDS staff) came to light even after the said discussion. 

It is reiterated that GDS staff are not responsible for double payment under MGNREGS.  The role of BPM is very limited where he had performed his bonafide duties in the routine.  His is to carry out the orders of his higher ups on all matters including instructions on MGNREGS.  Please imagine the quantum of work over 1,25,000(one lakh twenty five thousand) accounts in Koppal HO alone and the plight of the staff without any support by the administration by way of deployment of additional staff to meet the over burden.  As per instructions, Nodal officers of the rank of ASP/IP were also on the job to monitor and supervise the work!  The BPMs are not responsible for irregular procedure adopted by the HO/SO/NODAL OFFICERS in the matter.

In order to get excess/double paid amount from the beneficiaries of the MGNREGS, again pressure was mounted upon the GDS for recovery.  Barring a very few where the BPMs left the department, retired etc., almost all money has been recovered for the department and the services rendered by the BPMs and GDSMD/MCs of the BOs are neither appreciated nor rewarded.  Now STRANGELY disciplinary action is proposed without any valid reason which is opposed vehemently at this end.  It is seen of late that harassment of GDS is on increase under the guise of disciplinary action even for small routine issues.  THE MATTER OF DISCIPLINE IS NOT REVIEWED TO SAFE GUARD THE INTEREST OF HARD WORKING AND SINCERE STAFF WHICH IS HIGHLY DEPLORABLE.

The GDS are to follow the directions of the Mail Overseers, SPMs, Inspectors and ASPs as the case be and even the divisional head.  Most of the instructions are now a days oral, especially in the present scenario where much is said about business, profit, our contribution to the department, hard work, work beyond duty hours, self reliance etc.  Everyone should own the responsibility and share the responsibility in adverse situation also and it is not proper to push the poor, innocent and humble GDS to further deteriorating condition. 

Under the above circumstances the GDS in the entire Koppal Branch are agitating over the injustice done to them and given a notice of TILL SETTLEMENT FAST INEVITABLY WHEN THE TALKS ARE FAILED WITH THE DIVISIONAL ADMINISTRATION.  We therefore request you to look into the matter in the proper perspective and cause to STOP SUCH EXCESSES ON GDS, TAKE BACK POD GDS ON DUTY immediately.  We urge upon the Head of the Circle to constitute a committee including staff leaders to arrive at truth and rational conclusion/decision.

Awaiting immediate response,

Thanking you,

                                                                     Yours faithfully,

                                                                   S.S.MAHADEVAIAH

The condition of the marooned people and those who have been hit by the floods is beyond description and can only be imagined rather described.

        The Postal employees, especially the G.D.S. employees are spread over interior parts of the country side. Those in affected areas have lost everything, like other people. These Postal employees require help from the department of Posts. The states Government are trying to rush help to the affected people but these measure are proving to be too limited and too short to mitigate the misfortune. The Postal department, therefore, has to rush immediate help to its employees - help of immediate use and help for reconstruction of the property damaged by the floods.

His dead body found on06.09.2014 copy was enclosed. As per our assessment, the houses  of Gramin Dak Sevaks employees have been collapsed in floods in this Divisions. One GDS Employee in Rajouri Division died in this calamity.

        You are, therefore, requested kindly to view the situation in the flood affected areas as that of human tragedy and natural calamity and take immediate measures to rush the following reliefs to the Postal employees - departmental and GDS employees as;-

(i)   Supply of food, clothing; fuel, lighting materials like Kerosene and Kerosene lamp, candles and matchboxes; and medicines keeping view the present situation and the one that is likely to follow in all probability.
