Smt. N Uma Devi, ( DOB 5.4.1952)  entered this Department  of Posts in Hyderabad Postal Circle on 30.3.1974 (CO Hyderabad)  and is retiring in April, 2012 on superannuation after putting in  >38 years service. 

 

She is a dedicated and sincere worker apart from being humane and helpful. 

 

The prestigious Dak Seva Award was conferred on Smt. Uma Devi in 1989 for her meritorious service.   She is the only stenographer to have achieved this.  She also took an active part in departmental activities through out her service.  She portrayed a role in a Training film brought out by AP circle, which is being used in all the PTCs in the country.  She had also acted in the publicity films brought out by AP circle for PLI-RPLI and Philately.

 

Smt. Uma Devi had worked as Treasurer of our All India Assn during the years 2001-2003.

 

Friends, it is not out of place to mention here that she actively took up the cause of AIPSA right from the start and played key role in achieving recognition for our Assn.   She, along with other delegates of AIPSA, visited Directorate several times and was very much instrumental in issue of orders for Restructure of cadre for Postal Stenographers.  She had been a pillar of support for our cause through out and with her retirement we are definitely poorer by one strong member.

 

On behalf of  members of the Confederation of All India Central Government tenographer fraternity, and All India Postal Stenographer Association,  I convey best wishes to Smt. N.Uma Devi for a Healthy, Happy and Peaceful retired life. 

Sad Demise of Beloved member

Smt.Susamma Koshy, Senior Stenographer in Postal Department, Kerala Circle who put 36 years of service in the department left us on 26-4-2012.  She was very active in the AIPSA and  her support in forming the Cofederation branch in Kerala to be appreciated. 

I on behalf of the members of the Confederation  express deep condolence.

Reminder on parity

Respected Sir,

Sub :    Pay parity for Stenographers working in non-secretariat offices

             with - Central Secretariat Stenographers  Services 

Ref:-   Our letter dated 19th December 2011 (Copy enclosed for ready ref. pls)

          In continuation of my letter dated 19th December 2011, I on behalf of the Members of the Confederation of All India Central Government Stenographers Associations (Stenographers working in non-secretariat  Central Government Offices)  request your goodself  to kindly consider our genuine demands of  pay parity with the Central Secretariat Stenographers under the Principle of   “equal pay for equal work” with reasons and justifications.

          It is pertinent to note that the modes of recruitment of the Stenographers  are  one and the same in Subordinate as well as in  Central Secretariat Services.  It is through a common competitive  examination conducted by the Staff Selection Commission (SSC), Govt of India, on an All India basis. The pay scale is the same for Secretariat and non-Secretariat service at entry grade.  Further it is nowhere mentioned in the notice issued by SSC at the time of recruitment  that  the pay structure will be fixed at different scales of pay depending on the place of posting i.e. Central Secretariat or Subordinate offices.

The VI CPC, recommended full parity of scales of Subordinate Stenographers with CSSS, but the same has not been given effect in the right sprit and will.  This adds more injustice to the already injured Stenographers’ category working in Subordinate units.  However,  few  Departments in  subordinate Services were extended the benefit of Central Secretariat parity.

Being “COMMON CATEGORY”  fixing  different Pay Scales based on the place of work is  against the principle of ‘Equal  pay for Equal work’.

Sir, as you will kindly observe, the present monetary difference is a negligible one for the Department to cause justice – but it will boost the morale of this hard working people.

We request your goodself to kindly bestow your active consideration and grace on the above issue without further delay, removing the grievance.

CAICGSA on behalf of the Stenographers working in various Central Government Departments in Subordinate Services, most fervently pray to your good self to favourably consider our legitimate demand and cause to issue orders effecting Central Secretariat parity  with effect from 01.1.2006 immediately and extend natural justice.

We shall be grateful for your affirmative response.

Thanking you immensely,

                                                                                         Yours faithfully,
