AIPEU GDS(NFPE) - CIRCULAR No.08 DATED 06-06-2014

Circular No.o8                                                                                                      Dated:06-06-2014

Dear Comrades,
General Elections are over and a new Government has come to power. The UPA Government which has not done justice to GDS employees and the common people of the country and faced a humiliating defeat. Now it is the turn of Shri Narendra Modi Government.  New Communications Minister Shri Ravi Shankar Prasad has taken charge. People of the country have high expectations about the Govt. As the Govt. has only just taken charge, from our earlier experiences, coming to any sudden conclusion about the Govt., may not correct.
 7th Central Pay Commission & GDS :
Even before the terms of reference of the 7th CPC is declared by the Govt., the recognized GDS Union has signed an agreement with the Department accepting separate Committee. Naturally, the Govt., excluded GDS from the Terms of Reference of 7th CPC. NFPE, AIPEU GDS (NFPE) & Confederation of Central Govt. Employees & Workers conducted two days strike on Feb 12th & 13th 2014 demanding inclusion of GDS in 7th CPC. The recognized Union cheated the GDS. As election was declared during April & May we could not conduct any further agitation during the said period. As per the call of NFPE & Confederation, we conducted intensive campaign against the anti-GDS stand of the UPA Govt., and also against the cheating of the recognized GDS Union.

SUPREME COURT TRANSFERRED THE CASE TO DELHI HIGH COURT AND FIRST HEARING TOOK PLACE ON 13-01-2014.

You are well aware that NFPE & AIPEU GDS (NFPE) filed a Writ Petition in the Supreme Court, requesting :

(1)   Implementation of the 1977 Supreme Court Judgment and grant of civil Servant status and all  benefits of Departmental employees  to GDS.
(2)   Scrap the GDS (Conduct & Engagment) Rules 2011, as they are invalid and unconstitutional.
(3)   Inclusion of GDS under 7th CPC.

The case came up for hearing on 07-05-2014. Advocate for the Govt., of India, Department of Posts appeared in High Court and requested six weeks extension of time for filing their reply statement. The High Court granted six weeks time for Govt., and also time for filing additional reply statement, if any,  by our Advocate. Next hearing of the case is on 19th September, 2014, the anniversary day of 1968 Sept 19th strike and 19th September 1984 which was the first one day strike only for the cause of GDS Employees.

BEFORE GOING FOR AN AGITATIONAL PROGRAMME ON GDS DEMANDS, SUBMISSION OF MASS MEMORANDUM TO PRIME MINISTER & COMMUNICATION MINISTER :

As the new Govt., has just taken charge, it will not be appropriate on our part to go for an agitation immediately. Further such a sudden agitation may not get public support also. Hence the CHQ has decided to submit a mass memorandum signed by maximum number of GDS about two lakhs to the Prime Minister of India & Communications Minister in the month of July 2014.
The copy will be supplied to all concerned Branches & Divisions by the CHQ.
Proforma of the Memorandum will be published in the web sites also. Please obtain maximum signatures of GDS in the Memorandum and submit to CHQ before 15-07-2014 to the following address :
