In Keral Postal circle CBS/CIS -CBS problems. -Protest Rally-Hunger strike
N F P E - F N P O
Postal Joint Council of Action (JCA), Kerala Circle,Thiruvananthapuram-695 001.
No.Postal JCA/Agtn/APL-2016
07-04-2016
To
The Chief Postmaster General,
Kerala Circle,
Thiruvananthapuram-695 033.
Sir,
Sub: Problems faced by the staff
in connection with CBS/CIS - regarding.
Kindly recall
the formal/informal discussions we had with you on various
occassions on the above subject.
The Postal joint council of action comprising of
all the unions affiliated to NFPE
and FNPO has seriously considered the problems
faced by the
operative/supervisory staff in connection with CBS/CIS. The post
migrated scenario has also been
reviewed by the JCA. We have decided to conduct
the following agitational
programmes.
1. Protest Rally by women employees in all divisions on 12-4-2016.
2. Hunger strike in front of Circle Office and all Divisional Offices on26-4-2016.
3. The JCA has decided to boycott the overstayal in the offices in the nameof CBS problems.
The following are the burning issues faced by the staff in connection with CBS &
CIS.
1. 1450 offices have been
migrated to CBS because of the pressure from our
department and hasty decision
taken by the Circle administration. The end
users are the ultimate sufferers.
The public also suffering a lot.
In banking sector the average
migration to CBS per year was 100. In our
circle the entire staff in
migrated offices are under stress and their normal life
is badly affected. The staff are
compelled to stay in the offices upto midnight
or beyond that. Lady officials
are the main sufferers. The department has
miserably failed to arrange night
guards and security to the post offices. More than 40% offices are C class.
Many unfortunate incidents have been reported
from various offices. Non
availability of transport facilities in the late hours is
another problem.
2. The problem of network
slowness and non-availability of Finacle Server are
continuing and badly affecting
the day to day work. Low capacity of the
centralized server is the main
reason.
3. ‘USER ID’ problem is very
serious especially in single handed offices. Cases
of non-sanctioning of leave in
the name of CBS are reported from many
divisions. Upgradation of all ‘C’
class offices to ‘B’ class is our suggestion to
resolve the issue.
4. Problems with the ‘Report
Option’:
There is no provision to generate
the required reports. Statistical figure are
not available. It is reported
that the administration is harrassing the officials in
the name of non-submision of
various reports which are not available in
finacle software.
5. Issuing/discharging of NSC/KVP
Certificates: There are somany problems
and most of them are inherent
with the software.
6. Cheque clearing is a herculian
task in finacle.
7. ‘C SAC’ problem is to be
settled.
8. Inadequate training: There is
no fruitful action till this date.
9. Problems in connection with
agent transaction have not been settled.
10. Upgradation of bandwidth: The
Directorte has isued specific orders to ensure
the availability of minimum
bandwidth of 512 KbPs in all offices. But in our
Circle many offices are provided
with 128 KbPs or 256 KbPs.
11. Non-availability of
uninterrupted Power Supply is the main problem: 70% of
offices in our circle are not
having generators. The process of replacement of
damaged UPS as assured by the
circle administration have not been completed.
In Northern Region the situation
is very bad and RO is not taking any efforts
to resolve the issue. AMC
coverage is to be ensured in all cases.
12. There are serious lapses on
the part of M/s.Infosys and Sify: They are
behaving as the bosses of our
department and neglecting the requests of our
staff for the immediate services.
Proper monitoring and periodical meetings
with the vendors are to be
ensured by taking the feedback from the operative
offices.
13. Functioning of CPC: We are
receiving so many complaints from the operative/
supervisory staff regarding the
functioning of CPC. Calling the officials in
the night hours, compelling to
re-open the offices during midnight, blaming
the end user for the issues
arised due to the problems inherent with the software.
Non-attending of phone calls, non
reply to e-mail etc. are few examples. The
decentralization of CPC to
divisional level is to be examined.
14. Primary, secondary
connectivity (NSP-1 & NSP-2) are mandatory for CBS.
But many offices in our circle
are not provided with NSP-1 & 2. Immediate
action is requested to ensure the
availability of required connectivity in allCBS
offices.
15. Computers and peripherals
supplied so far are not sufficient. Request to
arrange the supply of all items
considering the actual requirement.
16. Additional work in connection
with CBS beyond the normal working hours
may be remunerated @ Rs.200/- per
hour.
Problems with
CIS
1. Non-accessability of Me-Camish
Server is the main problem of CIS. The
system is always showing “internal
server error”. The staff are compelled to
do the transactions in ‘Point of
Sale’ module and ‘Push back’ is a common
phenomena.
2. On many days generation of
reports is in trouble and hence the daily accounts
preperation is badly affected.
3. Due to non-updation of data
transaction of institutional policies cannot be
accepted.
4. Missing of credit is a serious
problem.
5. Miscalculation of Premia and
Service tax is the inherent problem of the
software.
6. Hang out at the time of
operation leads to wrong entry of premia and doubling
or tribling etc.
7. Migration to CIS Platform
without the availability of Sify network is a serious
problem. This results
non-updation of many offices.
8. Data updation in salary
deduction cases is still pending.
9. Every chances are there for
payment of double bonus in maturity closure
cases in respect of policies
opened in march.
10. Problems in connection with
revival of policies are to be rectified.
11. In rural area RPLI
transaction will be more but the network speed will be
comparatively less. This issue is
to be addressed properly.
12. Adequate training (online) is
to be ensured for the smooth working.
13. Creation of additional posts
and provision of required infrastructural facilities
are the major items. Additional
manpower is to be provided with immediate
effect.
We hope the circle administration
will come forward with fruitfull action
to settle the issues for the
smooth functioning of our offices.

7th Central Pay Commission and the Arrears
7th Central Pay Commission and the Arrears
“In the past, since the Pay Commission recommendations were enforced
with years of retrospective effect, the government had refused to
release the arrears for allowances”
The Pay Commission for Central Government employees is constituted once
every ten years to revise their pay and allowances. The previous Pay
Commission was implemented in the year 2006. The most recent one, the
7th Pay Commission, had submitted to the Central Government its report
in 2015. The recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission are expected to
come into effect from June or July this year. They are also very likely
to have a retrospective effect from January 1, 2016 onwards.
In the event that it comes into effect from January 1, many are
convinced that the government is very likely to not release the arrears
for House Rent and Transport allowances, this time also. But, some of
our readers vehemently oppose this stand.
The recommendations of 6th Pay Commission was implemented and the
revised salaries were given only with effect from 01.01.2006. But the
allowances are given only after 1.9.2008. It was originally meant to be
implemented on January 1, 2006 including all allowances. The allowances,
particularly HRA and TA were calculated from September 1, 2008 onwards.
The government refused to give the 32-months arrears on HRA and
Transport allowance.
This time, the slogan was “Pay Commission without arrears.” Despite it
all, four months have passed. The government servants are not
responsible for the delay, but they say that the government must pay the
arrears on HRA and travel allowance this time from the implemented
date.
This is why, in our 7th CPC Arrears Calculator, we have mentioned as two
stages that the total approximate arrears and actual arrears.
Similarly, the readers have expressed their opinions about the various deductions, including CGEGIS, GPF, and NPS.
Some say that the arrear amount has to be calculated only after
deducting the subscriptions of CGEGIS. And also, the arrear calculations
must be made after deducting like Minimum GPF contributions and, the
subscription of New Pension Scheme. We would like to state that we are
making efforts to incorporate all these views. We would also like to
thank our readers for giving us such wonderful and thought-provoking
feedback.
The intention behind designing a calculator to find out the salaries,
pensions and allowances of the Central Government employees, the serving
members of the armed forces and the pensioners, is to give the readers a
simple and as-accurate-as-possible method of calculation.
Our exclusive calculator links are given below…

Government job aspirants may not have to give non-creamy layer proof
 |
| Union Minister of State for Personnel, Public Grievances, Pensions Jitendra Singh |
New Delhi, Apr 5 (PTI) There may be no need for production of multiple
non-creamy layer certificates for candidates belonging to Other Backward
Class (OBC) seeking reservation in government jobs and instead they can
provide self-attested photocopy of such documents, as per new rules
being considered by the Centre.
Every candidate seeking reservation in central government posts and
services as OBC candidate is required to submit a certificate confirming
his or her status and also produce non-creamy layer status certificate.
"The appointing authorities would accept production of self-attested
photo copy of the non-creamy layer certificate, subject to verification
of the original non-creamy layer certificate, as is the practice being
followed for verification of other original documents," the Personnel
Ministry has proposed.
It has sought comments from the Ministry of Social Justice and
Empowerment, Department of Higher Education, Union Public Service
Commission and Staff Selection Commission on this proposal.
It has also sought feedback on a new format for issue of non-creamy
layer certificate suggested by National Commission of Backward Classes.
The non-creamy layer certificate would be applicable to OBC candidates
who are covered under income or wealth test criterion. The income limit
is decided on the basis of income earned during three previous financial
years preceding the year of appointment, the Personnel Ministry has
said.
To illustrate, the validity of non-creamy layer certificate issued
during any month of the financial year 2016-17 covering three preceding
financial years is accepted by the authorities concerned for any
appointments or recruitments which would be valid during the period
April 2016 to March 2017, it has proposed.

Soon, you can cancel your train tickets just by a phone call
Indian Railway is set to launch a facility next month for the hassled
passengers who find it hard to reach its counters within the stipulated
time to cancel their confirmed tickets and claim refund.
"One has to dial 139 giving details of the confirmed ticket for
cancelling it and the sender will get a one-time password (OTP).
Passenger has to reach the counter the same day and reveal the OTP to
claim refund," said a senior Railway Ministry official.
After the change in refund rules, a lot of passengers are now finding
it difficult to reach counters to cancel the reserved tickets within
the stipulated time and as a result they are losing money.
According to the new refund rules, railways has doubled the ticket
cancellation charge with the aim of helping genuine passengers get
confirmed tickets.
"The refund rules were revised to discourage touts and ticketing
agents who engage in black marketing of tickets," said the official,
adding "however, it has also resulted in inconvenience in some genuine
cases. So we are now providing the 139 facility for cancellation."
Coming to the aid of harried passengers, railways will launch the
cancellation facility through 139 service so that one does not have to
rush to the counter to cancel confirmed tickets.
The tickets which are booked online can be cancelled on the ticketing
websites. The 139 facility is for those who bought tickets from
counters.
The software is ready and the facility is likely to be formally launched in the second week of April.
