Resolutions
on GDS Problem of STATUS
The 9th All India conference in session at the historic place Sri Uddaneshwara
Samudaya Bhavana, Sri Siddaganga math, Kyathasandra, Tumakuru, Dn. Karnataka discussed at length various burning issues
concerning GDS and therefore urged unanimously for immediate
settlement/improvement. The following
demands require urgent attention and immediate settlement
1. Resolution on STATUS:- The Central
Government is yet to consider the long pending demand of ED employees (Now GDS)
for Grant of Status and pension, despite full justification viz, Supreme Court
verdict calling Civil Servants, agreement during strike to appoint one man
committee with a specific terms of reference of pension, recommendation of
Justice Talwar Committee report, part time/casual labour getting status etc.
The status of GDS is not even better than part time casual employees as the
contingent employee will get status in case of combination of two posts. But it is not so in case of GDS who have been
performing combined duties. A meagre
allowance of Rs. 250/- is given to the BPM who take the extra burden of 3-5
hours for delivery/mail conveyance. The
Central Government should be a model employer and in order to put an end to
this kind of practice, the demand needs to be met with early. Accordingly the name GDS should be changed to
“Gramin Dak Karamchari or Rural Postal Employee”.

Resolutions on GDS Problems
The
9th All India conference in session at the historic place Sri Uddaneshwara
Samudaya Bhavana, Sri Siddaganga math, Kyathasandra, Tumakuru, Dn. Karnataka discussed at length various burning issues
concerning GDS and therefore urged unanimously for immediate
settlement/improvement. The following
demands require urgent attention and immediate settlement:-
1.
Grant-eight hours work to
all GDS. All incentives will be
abolished and the work will be included in the workload.
2.
HRA should be granted at par with regular
employees and Grant GDS Children Education fee.
3.
Transport allowance
should be granted to GDS who are working at urban and semi urban places at par with
departmental employees.
4.
Promotions/Leave and other benefits:-
i.
Annual increase at par
with regular employees, that is 3%.
ii.
Three promotions MACP to all GDS on completion of
10th, 20th, 30th year of their services shall be granted.
iii.
CL, EL etc. like the Departmental Employees should
be given to the GDS.
iv.
The period of GDS service should be counted for
pension and gratuity to the promotees.
v.
The date of superannuation of GDS should be the
last working day of the month of retirement.
vi.
Gratuity should be as per Gratuity Act for GDS
also. The present grant of sixty thousand for both Severance amount should be
the minimum, that is whichever is more.
vii.
Group Insurance at par
with regular employees at least minimum
Rs 10,00,000/-
5. Contributory
New Pension Scheme parity with SDBS Scheme to GDS and Medical coverage:-
I. on Social Security, Pension, it is disappointing
to see that no acceptance has been made for the contributory Pension Scheme
although SDBS. This is a vital issue for us. Contributory pension at par with
regular employees, as recommended by 7th CPC, may be granted to GDS Officials.
Monthly Service Discharge benefit(like Pension/NPS)
to those not covered under SDBS: A
monthly regular income, a social security is to be assured to a section who have
rendered service upto 65 years and the lump sum grant is never a scheme of
Pension or NPS. A minimum of Rs. 4500/-
in lieu of Severence allowance be assured to those retired/retiring from
service on 1.1.2006 to 1.1.2016
II. At least Rs. 2,00,000/- yearly medical coverage
for serving and retired GDS employees.
