Dear Comrade,
The secretariat of Kerala Circle of ITEF held at Ernakulam on 10.1.2014 took the following decisions unanimously:
1. The report of Sub Committee-1 on cadre restructuring and allocation of posts, as available, reveals that the findings formulated are unbiased and based on sound principles. Therefore, as Kerala Circle is concerned, any deviation therefrom is not acceptable. The committee has rightly addressed the issues that arose out of irrational and erratic allotment of allocation of posts in the previous cadre restructuring exercise. It is a common knowledge that post restructuring 2001, posts went begging for candidates in many charges like West Bengal while legitimate promotions were denied to many in small charges like Kerala for want of sufficient posts. Powerful Circles cornered disproportionate number of posts which resulted in the present scenario. This needs to be corrected. That is what the Sub Committee-1 has tried to achieve.
2. The representatives of the ITEF and ITGOA in the Committee has not made any dissenting note on the decision of the Committee to reallocate the entire posts, as far as we know. As such any stand taken by the CHQ in support of the agitating circles will tantamount to disowning its own representative in the committee. The Secretariat unanimously came to the conclusion that supporting recalcitrant units for unjustifiable demands would be detrimental to the unity and the larger interests of the ITEF and the Department. Any agitational programmes in that directions will find no takers in Kerala Circle. No calls for nationwide agitation in support of the West Bengal and Mumbai Circles on this issue will be implemented in Kerala Circle. It was also noted that Kerala Circle did not embark on agitations when it was handed a raw deal in 2001.
3. Any reductions in the existing posts of any Circles is unacceptable. Therefore, if such a situation exists anywhere, the posts kept as reserves may be diverted to those charge to tide over such a situation.
4. Since the cadres are restive over the delay, necessary steps requires to be taken immediately to allocate the posts.
Comradely yours
Narayan Hari
General Secretary
Kerala Circle.
A big clap for you.. you could speak the truth before CHQ. A handful of genuine issues are pending like advance increments, 27 years old RR for ITI promotion, wretched hands of some persons who managed to change the RR, amended as per the guidelines of DoPT, dated 20-10-2003 – to roll back to 1986 again. Speak with backbone straight and fight to establish justice and genuine rights of the deserving employees. Never be submissive to the erratic and bogus leadership.
The decision taken by ITEF seems to be very reasonable, brave and bold and members of all cadres in kerala will be with the federation.
