GDS COMMITTEE REPORT
DEPARTMENT OF POST SOUGHT PERMISSION FROM ELECTION COMMISSION FOR PUBLISHING THE REPORT - DISCUSSION HELD WITH NFPE & FNPO - ASSURED TO PUBLISH THE REPORT IMMEDIATELY AFTER GETTING APPROVAL
INDEFINITE HUNGER FAST DEFERRED
Dear Comrades,
As you are aware, the GDS Committee headed by Shri Kamlesh Chandra, Retired Postal Board Member, has submitted its report to Government on 24th November 2016. Secretary, Posts, informed us that the report will be published only after getting approval of the Minister, Communications. Earlier, GDS Committee Report was published on the very same date of submission. 7th Pay Commission Report was also published immediately on submission to Government.
Protesting against the unjustified stand of the Department, NFPE & AIPEU-GDS conducted nationwide agitational programmes like protest demonstration, dharna etc. Finally we have given notice for indefinite hunger fast in front of the Directorate from 18.01.2017, by Secretary General, NFPE and all General Secretaries of affiliated Unions including AIPEU-GDS. After our hunger fast notice things started moving. Secretary, Department of Posts deputed a Senior Officer to the Minister’s office to get the approval of the Minister. Minister granted permission to publish the Report with a condition that Election Commission’s approval should be obtained before publishing the Report, as Election Commission has already declared election to five State Assemblies.
On 16.01.2017, the Department called us for discussion with Member (Technology). In the discussion Member (T) informed that “a reference has been made to the Election Commission of India (ECI) and a response is expected shortly”. We recorded our strong protest against the unjustified delay in publishing the report. The Member (T) expressed “the difficulty in hosting the report in the Department’s website on account of the enforcement of the Model Code of Conduct in view of assembly elections having been announce in five states”. The appeal given by the Department to call off the indefinite hunger fast is published below.
In view of the above, the Federal Secretariat of NFPE and AIPEU-GDS has reviewed the situation based on the written assurance given by the Department and has decided to postpone the indefinite hunger fast to be commenced from 18th January 2017. Even if we go on indefinite fast or strike, Department cannot publish it without the permission of Election Commission, as the Department has already submitted it to Election Commission for permission.
We hope that the Election Commission will grant permission shortly to publish the Report.
NFPE & AIPEU-GDS has made sincere effort for compelling the Department to publish the GDS Committee Report and conducted nationwide agitational programmes. It is only because of our agitational programmes and indefinite hunger faster notice, the Department was compelled to get permission and also submitted it for Election Commission’s approval.
NFPE & AIPEU-GDS always stand with the three lakhs Gramin Dak Sevaks and we assure our GDS employees that if GDS Committee Report is against the interest of the GDS NFPE & AIPEU-GDS will declare serious agitational programmes including strike.
Fraternally yours,
R. N. Parashar P. Panduranga Rao
Secretary General, NFPE General Secretary, AIPEU-GDS

MOST UNKINDEST CUT OF ALL .
PENSIONER'S OPTION - 1 MERCILESSLY REJECTED.
PENSIONER'S OPTION - 1 MERCILESSLY REJECTED.
It is learnt that the Committee chaired by Secretary (Pension) has NOT recommended the Option Number - 1 recommended by 7th Central Pay Commission for fixation of pension of pre -2016 Pensioners. Instead it has recommended extension of the benefit of pension determination recommended by 5th CPC ie ; arriving at notional pay in 7th CPC by applying formula for pay revision for serving employees in each Pay Commission revision and consequent pension fixation. Now the Implementation Cell of 7th CPC is studying the recommendations of Pension Committee for processing for submission for approval of Cabinet. Thus , the one and the only favourable recommendation of 7th CPC ie; the real parity in Pension which is also approved by Cabinet with a rider "subject to feasibility" is going to be mercilessly rejected by Government , inspite of repeated requests and demands from NJCA, Confederation and Pensioners Associations .

UNJUSTIFIED DELAY IN PUBLISHING THE GDS COMMITTEE REPORT - SERVING NOTICE FOR COMMENCEMENT OF INDEFINITE HUNGER FAST IN FRONT OF DAK BHAWAN FROM 18.01.2017 – REGARDING.

Dak Bhawan, New Delhi – 110001
Sub: - Unjustified delay in publishing the GDS Committee Report - Serving notice for commencement of indefinite hunger fast in front of Dak Bhawan from 18.01.2017 – regarding.
Sir,
We regret to note that inspite of the categorical assurance given by Secretary, Department of Posts to this Federation, the Report of the GDS Committee headed by Shri Kamalesh Chandra, Retired Postal Board Member, Submitted on 24.11.2017 is not yet published by the Department. We suspect some foul play behind this unjustified delay.
Earlier GDS Committee reports were published on the same day of submission to Department. Even the 7thPay Commission Report was published in the Government of India website, within seconds after its submission to union Finance Minister. GDS Committee report is not a secret or confidential report. We are at a loss to understand why the department is not publishing it, even after a lapse of one and a half months after the date of submission. It seems that the Department is not ready to respect the sentiments of about three lakhs GraminDakSevaks who are the real backbone of the Postal Department. We also suspect that there is a calculated move on the part of the Postal Board to belittle the credibility of the Union/Federation leadership among the employees. We cannot allow such a situation to continue anymore. The whole hearted cooperation and commitment extended by the Postal employees and this Federation for improving the productivity and efficiency of the Postal Services cannot be misunderstood. We are forced to reconsider our stand and to come out openly against this indifferent and negative attitude of the Postal Board.
We hereby give notice to you that as a mark of our strong protest against the unjustified and inordinate delay in publishing the GDS Committee Report, the Secretary General NFPE and the General Secretaries office bearers of affiliated Unions/Associations shall commence INDEFINITE HUNGER FAST in front of Dak Bhawan from 18thJanuary 2017. We further like to make it clear that if the department fail to publish the report forthwith, we will be compelled to resort to higher form of Trade Union action including stoppage of work without any further notice.
We hope that good sense will prevail upon the Postal Board and immediate necessary action will be taken, before the situation goes from bad to worse.
With regards
Yours faithfully,
(R. N. Parashar)
Secretary General
