Consequent
on granting permission by the DOP&T to fill up HSG-I vacancies as per
existing recruitment rules, HSG-II officials with three year service are
considered for HSG-I promotion. But the Postmaster Grade II officials with
minimum five years service are only considered for PM Grade-III promotion as
per the Postmaster Grade Recruitment Rules approved by DOP&T. This DISCRIMINATION was brought to the
notice of the Directorate by AIPEU Group ‘C’ (CHQ) earlier. On 02.08.2013, detailed
discussion was held with Member (P), Postal Services Board. It is informed that
Directorate has already called for the detailed particulars, from Circles. On receipt
of information the case will be submitted to DOP&T for RELAXATION of five years to three year at par with HSG II
officials.
