The Secretary,

Respected Madam,

                                      

                                            Sub:- Non Implementation of DOPT order by fixing minimum                                        

                                                    Qualifying service for promotion to next grade pay for                                                   

                                                    MMS Driver & Artisans in Dept. of Post-Reg.

                                                

                                    Ref:-  GI. Dept. of Per. & .Trg. OM. No.AB.14017/61/2008-  

       Esst (RR) dated 24.03.2009.

*****

            We beg to lay down the following few lines for favor of your kind perusal  and sympathetic consideration and favorable action please.                                                                                                       

   

While implementing the 6^th CPC recommendations, the DOPT issued some guidelines vide OM No. AB 14017/61/2008-Esst. (RR) dated 24th March, 2009 and formulated minimum eligibility service to get promotion from one grade to next or higher grade pay. (copy enclosed )

            The Department of Posts, the entry level Grade Pay for the Drivers and Artisans  has been  fixed at Rs 1900/-. To be more illustrative, the following tabular column may kindly be taken into account.

  

S.No.	Grade Pay		Minimum qualifying service for promotion to next or higher grade pay
	From	To
1	1900		Entry Level Grade Pay
2	1900	2400	8 years of regular service in the entry grade
3	2400	2800	5  years of regular service in the 2400 grade pay or a combined service of 13 years in the entry grade
4	2800	4200	6 years of regular service in the 2800 grade pay  or a combined service of 19 years in the entry grade

                                                          

           

The above mentioned order has already been implemented by Indian Railway and Ministry of Defence. (Copy enclosed)   

          Hence it is requested that the benefit of Qualifying Service for Promotion to next grade Pay scheme which was earlier granted to the Drivers and Artisans, shall be restored with all consequential benefits.  Already, the Drivers and Artisans, the poor employees of this department, have heavily by affected with the pay structure of the earlier pay commission and now we are surviving below the poverty line. I hope, that my request for the restoration of benefits under Qualifying Service for Promotion Scheme shall be considered  early  for which act of rendering justice, I shall  ever be grateful.

Awaiting early orders.

                                    Thanking You Madam,

                                                                                                              Yours faithfully,
