BREACH OF FAITH



The Postal Services Board had protracted discussion with the staff side on 6 th June and 7th June 2011. Several rounds of talks took place between the official side and staff side. Many  issues which remained unsettled for many years have found solutions . Many sub committees were formed during the five days from 27th June  to1st  July by the Department in order to find solution on various issues with the General Secretaries   concerned.



Many officers of the Department have extended their fullest cooperation to the unions during the negotiations .



Unfortunately Charter of Demand no 1 –Introducing of hub system for processing of 1st class mails and registered mails to convert 214 sorting offices into L 2 offices, while discussing this demand on 27th June 2011 The Secretary Department of posts assured the staff side that the decision of the Department would be deferred . Again on 30th June 2011 , The Secretary Posts and Member P met union leaders and reiterated the same. On 1st July 2011 , a Meeting was conducted by the Department in Board room . Staff side participated in the meeting . The Secretary Posts told us that  most of the demands were considered favorably and therefore she appealed to call off  the strike. With good faith  the JCA unanimously decided on the same day to defer the strike. This was informed to the Secretary .



While seeing the draft minutes , we noticed that the commitments made by Secretary Post for the past 3 days were not exactly reflected in regard to demand no 1. The staff side requested to change the minutes but  it was not agreed to .  We were totally disappointed . We  strongly feel that it is a breach of faith on the  part of the Department
