To
Sri J. Panda,
Chief Postmaster General,

Kolkata – 700012.

          Sub: Implementation of Redesigned Network for First Class & Second Class Mail.
Sir,
            After a long persuasion at the Directorate in connection with prompt disposal of mails and to avoid the back routing of mails a specific order was issued from Directorate on the 7th August, 2013.
            Implementation of L1 and L2 concept which caused the detention and back routing of mails after a long discussion at the directorate the result comes out.
            But we are very sorry to say that now we have already 1 ½ months lapsed the order which was issued vide no. 30-7/2012-D not yet been circulated or rather issued from the circle authority.
            Due to non-implementation of the order the back routing of mails causes the detention are going on as report received from various divisions.
            So, though we have already lapses some times, we strongly urge for issuing the order in this circle along with the revised due mail & sorting list as directed from the directorate in the above said memo (Copy enclosed for ready reference).
            Without further delay we request your kind intervention at this purpose.
            Thanking you.

                                                                                                                       Yours faithfully,

                                                                                                                     (S. K. BARDHAN)

EMERGENT  PROGRAMS  AT  DIVISIONAL  &  CIRCLE  LEVELS 
The Postal Coordination Committee has called to hold protest demonstrations at all divisions on 19th September 2013 and send resolution in the text below to the Chief PMG and concerned Regional PMG, through fax/speed post (fax no. of Ch.PMG 033-2212-0811). All affiliates of NFPE, W.B.Circle have to campaign, organize and hold this program. This program will culminate in a demonstration program at Circle Office on 20th September 2013 at 1:30 P.M. All divisions of Kolkata city and neighboring divisions including RMS/MMS, DAP, DPLI will mobilize maximum comrades to Circle Office on that day.
TEXT  OF  RESOLUTION  AT  DIVISIONAL  LEVEL
 
NFPE Group of Unions
________________ Division / Unit
      This huge demonstration of NFPE Group of Unions, .......... division/unit takes an exceptionally grave note of the recent administrative attack on postal employees, particularly on members of NFPE out of complete bias, like in passing orders of compulsory retirement in North Presidency Division on charges based on concocted stories. Same nature of vindictive intention is also being exhibited in case of Kolkata GPO and Kolkata Airport Sorting. The administration is evidently abusing the scopes of disciplinary cases to make the solidarity of trade union movement fall apart. 
      This demonstration further notes that a particular section of administration is patronizing and persuading such maligned practice in our circle and therefore, requests the Circle Head to intervene and restrict this part of the administration which is actually working against the peaceful environment and harmony between the administration and the staff-side.
      Be it further resolved that if any effective and visible action is not noted within a reasonable time, series of vehement trade union movements will be launched circle-wide with unprecedented intensity.
(signature of the president of the demonstration)

“ General Secretary R-IV stated that no open avenues of promotion for Group `D` employees, only Head Mail Guards/Mail Guards should be posted in transit section and TMO as per Molinder Singh formula.
