Revise Postmen / Mail Guard / MTS Recruitment Rules.
Stop open market recruitment. Restore seniority quota promotion:-
This item was earlier discussed in the JCM (DC) and
it is assured by Secretary (Posts) that the Recruitment Rules will be
reviewed after one or two Recruitment / Promotional exam are over, as
DOP&T may not approve immediate revision of Recruitment Rules already
approved by it. Now more than two Postmen/MG/ MTS recruitment / examination
is over and hence it is requested to take action to revise the Recruitment
Rules and stop open quota recruitment. Entire vacancies may be earmarked for
GDS and Casual Labourers as existed in the pre-revised Recruitment Rules.
|
As
decided in earlier JCM, the said RRs are to be relooked after seeing the
outcome of one or two exams. The process is still going on. Most of the
Circles have completed one round of recruitment process for direct
recruitment quota, and others on their way to completing the same.
Subsequently, pre-appointment formalities, trainings etc. would require to be
completed in case of newly recruited officials. Therefore, Circles need time
to judge the capabilities and skills of these officials and furnish proper
and accurate feedback thereto to this Directorate for further consideration
in the matter. Hence, time is not ripe to revisit the said RRs.
As
regards RRs of Postman, open market quota of 25% has already been given to
GDS. Now, as per the existing RRs,
only the unfilled vacancies, which could not be filled by the MTS/GDS, go to
open market for filling up.
However,
the proposal will be re-examined on receipt of the same from staff side.
