Ref. : Postal Directorate memo No. A-34012/3/2011-DE dated
10th April, 2012
Respected Madam,
Your kind attention is invited to this Association’s letters of even number dated 3/5/2012 and 19th May, 2012 on the above mentioned subject.
This Association has already informed Directorate that many Circles have not allowed our members to fill the OMR sheet on the ground that training period spent before induction in IP cadre is not to be reckoned as qualifying service. The second reason being adverse entry like ‘warning’, ‘reprimand’ emerged in last 5 ears’ ACR/APAR, though otherwise their grading in APAR remains between 6-8(very good).
Since both the reasons of the department are unfounded and against the rules in vogue thereby giving way to litigations. In view of such acts, few members of this Association have knocked the doors of Courts for relief and as such got relief. Hon’ble CAT Ernakulam Bench OA No. 380/2012 and 232/2012 filed at Bangalore CAT bench may kindly be referred to.It is apparent that, other eligible and analogous IPs/ASPs who are not allowed on the above grounds have approached Directorate through different representations to allow them to appear in the examination. Their representations are still pending for decision and as such, the circles will not be in a position to allow them to fill OMR sheets. Not allowing all eligible even those who have not approached the court will be against the natural justice and infringement to article 14 & 16 of the Constitution. It will also be discrimination to other eligible similar situated candidates who are not party to the OA.
In view of the above, your kind honour is once again requested to arrange for withdrawal of the notification issued to conduct the PS Gr. “B” examination scheduled to be held on 3rd June 2012 and hold the said examination only after the revision of Recruitment Rules and other prerequisites such as qualifying service and grading etc.
Favourable action is solicited.

e-IPOs to help diaspora file RTI applications.
NEW DELHI: Making it easy for the Indian diaspora to seek information under the RTI Act, the Centre has decided to float electronic Indian Postal Order for paying RTI fee, which can be purchased using debit and credit cards.
The Indians settled abroad were finding it difficult to seek information under the transparency law as IPO or Demand Draft of Rs 10 was not easily available.
The Department of Personnel has now agreed in principle with the Department of Posts to launch e-IPO which can be easily purchased by the applicant living abroad using their credit or debit cards.
Under the proposed scheme, once applicant purchases e-IPO using credit or debit card physical postal order will not be generated, only a number would be generated which could be mentioned on the application by the applicant.
"Information seeker will write this number on his RTI application and send to public authority. Service of e-IPO along with RTI application will be applicable to Central Public authorities", a Personnel Ministry circular said.
The details provided by the applicant will be matched with those on the Department of Posts web site and once transaction details are matched, fee will be accepted.
"Money will not be received physically by the PIO but will be transferred to a consolidated fund of India. This will be on the patten of the payment received by the Department of Posts in the scheme of CAPIOs", it said.
The Ministry directed all Ministries and departments to appoint nodal officers for handling e-RTI applications.
It said the nodal officers will be given training to handling these applications once the modalities are worked out.

Convening of regular DPC for promotion to PS Group ‘B’
No. CHQ/IPASP/DPC/2012 Dated : 7/5/2012.

Smt. Manjula Prasher,
Director General,
Department of Posts,
Dak Bhavan, New Delhi 110 001.
Sub: Convening of regular DPC for promotion to PS Group ‘B’
Respected Madam,
I intend to bring to your kind attention one of the areas, where delay is occurring in non-convening of DPC for promotion of IP/ASP to PS Group ‘B’.
2. In this connection, attention is invited to the consolidated instructions on DPC, circulated vide DOP&T’s OM No.22011/5/86-Estt.D dated 10.4.89, which, interalia, provides that DPCs should be convened at regular intervals to draw up panels which could be utilized for effecting promotions/against vacancies occurring during the course of a given year. These instructions enjoin upon the concerned authorities to initiate action to fill up the existing as well as anticipated vacancies well before the expiry of the previous panel in their respective reservation quota that is not covered in adhoc promotion. Moreover adhoc promotions can not provide uniformity amongst Circles as the vacancy positions differ from Circle to Circle.
3 According to the standing instructions, action for convening the DPCs should be initiated before the commencement of the vacancy year and that DPCs should be held against future vacancies so that justice is met to all and no category feel isolated. Non convening of timely DPC is effecting next financial up-gradation (MACP) to the officers.
4. It is understood that 22 TO 23 vacancies out of 649 posts of PS Gr. B earmarked for 75% quota are lying vacant for the vacancy year 2011, so supplementary DPC for the vacancy year 2011 may please be ordered to conduct before any promotion through LDCE. Any overlapping under different quota can lead to legal complication and cause creation of supernumerary post for the promotion of all seniors being set rules and procedure.
5. In view of the above, it is requested that suitable orders may kindly be passed to put in place immediately for calling records and required planning is done to convene the DPC, not only for the left out vacancies for the year 2011, but also for the vacancy years 2012, so that panels are prepared in time allowing sufficient time is given to the officers to join well before time and that the extant orders on the subject are followed, both in letter and spirit.
With regards,
