Rule : A Sevak shall have to give an undertaking that he has other sources of income besides the allowances paid or to be paid by the Government for adequate means of livelihood for himself and his family.
GDS engagement rule 2011 Committee views :
The Committee also found out during the visit to Circles that this condition is not being implemented in letter and spirit and merely exists on paper in most of the cases.- This conditon exists in paper only.
- The declarations given by GDS were mostly not correct.
- No action has been taken by the Dept.for submitting incorrect declarations.
- How alternative means of livelihood is available to GDSs who come to work from outside the post village due to changed residence condition ?
- The employeers who hire labours for different works in the rural areas ,will not hire GDSs for 2-3 hours in a day after working hours of GDS Post Office.
- A large percentage of GDSs are now solely dependent upon the wages which they receive from the Department.
Department View :
- After examining all these issues, Directorate dont want to made any changes in this rule and hence they are in the view that ” the maximum working hours is restricted to 5 hours according to Rule 3A(i) , there is no logic seen in taking away this condition.
NUGDS(FNPO) stand :
- Both these rules i.e, 3A(i) & 3A(iii) are interlinked
- We submitted and proved before Kamalesh Chandra Committee and Directorate that ” majority of GDS were performed their duties beyond 5 hours with the standards of workload norms assigned by DoP & upto 10 to 15 hours by including MGNREGS and Social Security Pensions.Hence, requested the DoP to provide 8 hour duty to all GDS.
(or)
It is evidently proved by the GDS Pay Committee Report , that” this rule exists in paper only”.
Conclusion :
There fore, we ask, request and demand the abolition of GDS Conduct & Engagement Rules,2011 for better livelihood of India Post.
