To
The Sr. Supdt. of Post Offices
Palakkad Division, Palakkad 678001
Memo No: NFPE/Agitations/2015 dated 28.10.2015
Sub:
Consideration for urgent intervention for settlement of issues related to CBS,
CIS & DBT.
Sir,
The
division has burning problems and your immediate intervention is requested for
the settlement.
DBT:
Unmanageable
workload is being experienced in sub and
branch offices of this division. It is the duty of the divisional
administration to rise to the occasion and to act. The Sub Offices may be
permitted to outsource the work. The BPMs are also forced to work beyond
their usual working time. Therefore they may be paid some remuneration
for the extra work done. These are essential as there is no other way to
resolve the issue. As this is a very sensitive issue, besides public
complaints, there is every possibility of experiencing untoward incidents at
offices due to mass protest. We once again urge upon you to act as per the need
of the time. And suitable instructions may be issued to restrict the number of
DBT transactions as per the office status as deemed fit and in this regard LSG
bodies may be taken into confidence. It is also suggested that an awareness
programmes may be carried out among pensioners about silent features of SB
accounts and its withdrawal process, through Sub Divisional Head, as done
during SB canvassing.
CBS
It
is known that basic amenities are still lacking for starting migration process.
No fruitful training is imparted to officials of CBS designated offices.
NSP2 connection is not supporting on NSP1 failures. Laser and passbook printers
are not supplied to all offices. The UPS problem is a crucial issue in some
offices. The doubling of bandwidth as
ordered by the directorate is seen not followed up from the division.
Besides, the divisional head is not supervising the migration work and it is
left to the system administrators alone.
In this circumstance, we request
you to stop further migration of offices to CBS platform except the already
listed offices, Ettanur, Mannapra and Pallippuram till the basic amenities, as
detailed below, are provided and workable training is imparted.
1) Purposeful training
to officials at least for 1 week.
2) NSP 1 and NPS 2
connectivity.
3) Presence of
Divisional Head or an Officer in IP/ASP rank during the entire migration
process and they should counter sign in the Sign Off reports
4) Proper UPS backup.
5) Enhancement of Sify
bandwidth as approved by Dte.
CIS
We
are shocked to understand that McCamish software is commissioned in the SOs
under Alatur HO in the last week of the month that too without giving any
sufficient training. We request you to impart training at WCTC or at SOs immediately
utilizing the service of the WCTC trainer. The staff may be asked to operate
only after formal or informal training. Till that time, acceptance of premium
may be suspended in CIS offices. The default fee may be condoned for the time
being.
Canvassing of SB
Accounts:
In this grave situation of DBT and pre
migratory activities, the divisional administration is compelling SPMs to do
house to house campaign and to collect new SB accounts. It is hereby brought to
your notice that we are not in a position to do that work at present and the
administration should stop such untimely compelling hence forth.
It
is our belief that the divisional administration will act in a befitting manner
to resolve these issues. We, the grass root level link, facing the public and
experiencing the difficulties due to lack of amenities, share our concerns with
you and it is your responsibility to settle the issues. It is our hope that the
administration will be wise enough to hear us and judiciously.
Yours faithfully
