New Delhi, Feb 3 : A delegation of Bharatiya Postal Employees Federation called on Union Minister of State Dr Jitendra Singh at New Delhi and hailed the employee-friendly budget presented by the Modi Government.
The delegation also expressed happiness over announcements made in General Budget 2023-24 for taking care of every section of society including the middle class which comprises large number of govt employees.
The delegation gave a memorandum to the Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh, requesting his intervention in some of their service matters including timely promotions of Postal Service employees.
Dr Singh, at that time, had mentioned that it was disheartening to see government employees attaining retirement from service without getting one’s due promotion and had thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for this kind decision. “Of the total of 8,089 promoted employees, 4,734 were from CSS, 2,966 from CSSS and 389 from CSCS”.
The Minister had also held several rounds of meetings with delegations of Central Secretariat officials to thrash out the issue, as he considered that these three services – CSS, CSSS and CSCS form the backbone of the central secretariat administrative functioning.
He told the Postal Service delegation that their concerns will be looked into sympathetically and will be tried to address appropriately.
One of the main issues raised during the meeting by the delegation was denial of benefit of 3% increment under pay fixation rule, if an employee gets regular promotion after MACP.
