All trade unions to strike work on Tuesday

Special Correspondent


In an unprecedented show of unity, all trade unions in the country have come together on the same platform and given a call for a general strike on February 28.


This is the first time since Independence that trade unions, cutting across ideological and political affiliations, have joined hands to register their protest on a wide range of issues arising out of the liberalisation policy.

“The liberalisation and new economic policies unveiled since 1991 have undermined the interests of workers to such an extent that trade unions representing the Left, Right and Centrist parties have been forced to come together. Such unity was not witnessed even during or after Emergency,” All India Trade Union Congress general secretary Gurudas Dasgupta told The Hindu .

Workers of all 11 recognised unions (to be recognised, a union has to have four lakh members) and 5,000 un-affiliated unions will strike work, affecting banking, postal, port and government operations. The unions have come together on a five-point charter, which seeks strict enforcement of all basic labour laws without any exception or exemption and stringent punitive measures for violation; a universal social security cover for unorganised sector workers without any restriction and creation of a National Social Security Fund.

According to the convener of the coordinating committee of the unions and president of the Congress-affiliated INTUC, G. Sanjeeva Reddy, and CITU general secretary Tapan Sen, things have come to such a pass in some States that even registration of new trade unions is not being allowed.

You may  well aware  that request  under  Rule 38 transfers  are made  mainly  by the  Lady Staff on  family  grounds  or on  Medical Grounds.  Their  requests  are  considered  after due  process  of  verification only  , and  that  too  on genuine grounds.

Hence   our  Circle Union  requests  the Chief PMG,  to  reconsider   the same  and     kindly   take  suitable  action so as to follow  a uniform procedure  throughout  the Circle , relaxing    such  hard  decisions. The  rejected  applications  may kindly  be   reconsidered  within the   purview  of  this  year  ADR  plan.

RTI QUERIES DON'T AFFECT GOVT. WORK
The time spent by government officials replying to RTI is so little that it cannot be a pretext for them to shirk that task

RTI Queries Don't Affect Govt. Work
In August 2011, the Supreme Court made an observation which had some unintended consequences on the Right to Information (RTI) process. The judgement by Justice R.V. Raveendran is turning out to be a seemingly legitimate excuse for government officials to restrict information.
Aditya Bandopadhyay went to court when the Central Board of Secondary Education declined to provide his examination answer sheets under the RTI Act. While the court allowed access to answer sheets, it also observed that the cherished right to information should not affect administrative efficiency.
In his judgement, Justice R.V. Raveendran said: “The nation does not want a scenario where 75 percent of the staff of public authorities spends 75 percent of their time in collecting and furnishing information to applicants instead of discharging their regular duties. The threat of penalties under the RTI Act and the pressure of the authorities under the RTI Act should not lead to employees of public authorities prioritising information furnishing at the cost of their normal and regular duties.” Government officials are now using this excuse with increasing frequency saying that even the court agrees. Central Information Commissioner Shailesh Gandhi says 75 percent government staff spending 75 percent of their time on giving information would mean 56 percent (0.75 X 0.75) of their total time spent only on replying to RTI queries.
mg_63860_rti_280x210.jpg
Gandhi says that at the most optimistic estimate not more than one crore RTI applications are likely to be received by all public authorities across the country in 2012. The average time to attend to each would be less than three hours. That means no more than three crore hours spent by all officials.
Assuming that an average government employee works for just six hours a day for 200 days a year, it would mean he would work for a total of 1,200 hours in a year. That means 25,000 (3 crore divided by 1,200) employees would be required full time. The Centre and all state governments have about 1.2 crore employees. So, the total time spent by government employees on replying to RTI queries would be 0.208 percent (25,000 divided by 12,000,000).
In other words, no more than 4.6 percent officials are spending 4.6 percent of their time on giving information. This is based on conservative assumptions. Surely, government officials work for more than six hours a day! Doesn’t look like they have much space to hide.

Subject:- Taking of Know Your Customer(KYC) documents at the time of credit of maturity value and cash withdrawal from savings account opened without KYC documents.

Sir / Madam,
The undersigned is directed to say that after removal of ceiling of maximum deposit in Post Office Savings Account, it has been observed that the possibility of fraud is more due to the fact that so far, KYC norms are not applied to Savings Accounts opened prior to introduction of AML/CFT norms in Small Savings Schemes. In order to curtail this possibility, following guidelines are being issued:-

1. In case, any depositor/holder/subscriber desires to credit maturity value of his Savings Instrument into a Post Office Savings Account opened prior to introduction of AML/CFT Norms i.e,without taking prescribed KYC documents, full KYC documents are to be obtained as per Risk Categorization (based on the amount being credited) before allowing credit of maturity value into savings account. Similarly, if a new Savings Account is opened to facilitate credit of maturity value,KYC documents are to be taken as per Risk Categorization based on the maturity Value being credited.

2. In case, an amount of Rs.50,000/- or above is withdrawan by cash from any savings account,full KYC Documents are to be taken as per Risk Categorization (based on the balance in Savings Account at the time of withdrawal) if the account was opened without taking any KYC documents. In case the account was opened with KYC documents prescribed for lower category of accounts and the balance in the account at the time of withdrawal is more than the amount prescribed for that category,additional KYC documents should be obtained as per the revised category of account.

3. It is requested that necessary instruction may be issued to all field units as well as inspecting/
visiting officers to implement the fresh guidelines.

4. This issues with the approval of DDG(FS)...
