EDITORIAL POSTAL CRUSADER: JULY 2015

EDITORIAL POSTAL CRUSADER: JULY 2015

“MAKE THE NFPE STRONGEST BY ENROLLING MAXIMUM MEMBERSHIP”

          Process of fresh verification of membership is going on. Our entire rank and file is making all efforts to enroll maximum membership in favour of all NFPE unions. This is high time when we have to prove that the NFPE is only the vanguard and first and natural choice of entire Postal Employees.

         Some disruptive forces who do not like the unity of workers have started playing their dirty game by introducing new unions in P-III and P-IV with the word “United”. So we have to make aware the members about it. Our rival unions are also making all efforts to delay the process of verification. One union  which is affiliated with  the ruling class  is also putting  so many hurdles in the verification  process as they  know that they  cannot reach to the goal and want to enjoy the facilities  granted by Govt. in the  name of  limited  trade union facilities.

         Make the members understand that this is the NFPE who has been continuously and consistently fighting for the cause of entire postal employees since its formation from 1905 in the form of Postal Club and thereafter as NFPTE/NFPE from 1954. Many historic and glorious strikes have been conducted under the banner of NFPE and have achieved so many demands. Recently recruitment in all cadres, stoppage of closure of 9797 Post Office and closure and merger of RMS Offices and  halt on Corporatization and privatization as recommended by Task Force Committee, in Postal Services  are our  great achievements, But still we have to travel a long  journey and being  in the main stream of working class  we have to fight  against the economic policies of Govt. of India which  are totally against  the interests  of working class and common man.

           We have to start our serious preparations to make 2nd September-2015 –Nation Wide General Strike on the call of Central Trade Unions, a historic success. This is a big fight of working class to resist the policies of Central Government which are Pro-capitalist and anti working class. Within the period of one year of Modi Government so many retrograde policies have been implemented. The existing labour laws i.e. Industrial Dispute Act, Contract Labour (Regulation and wages) act, Factories Act, Apparentice Act have been amended in favour of industrialists. The Government is moving ahead very fast to privatize most of the government service like Railways, Defence, Telecom, Postal, Banking, Insurance etc. by introducing FDI. Disinvestment has been started in Profit making Public Sector undertakings. Ban on recruitment in Central Government Services has further aggravated the problem of unemployment as lakhs and lakhs educated youth is wondering hither and thither for the search of job. Outsourcing, contractrization, hire and fire policies are paving way for exploitation and corruption.  So being a responsible organization we have to fight against all these retrograde policies of Government of India.

        For fighting we have to make ourselves strong and we can become stronger only by enrolling maximum membership in favour of all NFPE unions and if NFPE becomes  stronger it will be more advantageous  to Postal Employees in particular and entire  Central Government Employees and working class in general.

        So please enroll maximum membership and make the NFPE strongest.

Information regarding PA/SA Direct recruitment -2014 which was ordered to be kept in abeyance by the Department.

      Now as per information taken from Member (Personal) Postal Services Board, Dak Bhawan, New Delhi, the matter is under process in Directorate and will be settled within a week.

NFPE CIRCULAR
No. PF- 01(e) /2015                                                                  Dated: 12th June, 2015

To
            All General /Circle/Divisional & Branch Secretaries
            of all NFPE Affiliated  Unions.

LAUNCH MEMBERSHIP VERIFICATION
Dear Comrades,

            The fresh verification of membership has been started. This time a period of less than 30 days  has been given by the Department to submit letter of authorization to the Divisional Heads and that  is to be submitted  up to 06th July-2015. NFPE and CHQs have wasted no time to publish it in all web sites and in circulating. We are confident that our Divisional & Branch Secretaries would have a lead start in collecting the forms signed by the members. Take up the challenge and complete the process up to 30th June-2015 by utilizing the remaining time in a most productive manner. Conducting intensive and extensive membership campaign will enhance our chances of increasing the percentage of membership. Strictly avoid denial of membership to any one as per the decision of Federal Secretariat as it would be viewed seriously by the respective CHQ.

            NFPE was bifurcated from the NFPTE and it has got richest heritage of Trade Union Movement. We inherit the glory and tradition of Babu Tarapada  Mukherjee, the Father of P&T  trade union movement who thundered that “Workers are not baggers”. We inherit the militancy of UPTW that shook the morale of  foreign rulers and autocratic administration.

This is the NFPE/NFPTE who conducted so many glorious struggles and strikes. Indefinite  strike of 1960, One day strike  of 19th September, 1968, other  historic Indefinite  strikes of 1993, 1997, 1998 and 2000. About 15 One Day strikes from 1992 to 2014 and achieved so many demands. No organization can stake such type of claim. NFPE is the only organization which is consistently fighting against the Neo Liberal Economic Policies of Government of India. It is because of NFPE that we could stop the closure of 9797 Post Offices and RMS Offices. Now the danger in form of Recommendations of Task Force Committee headed by Shri TSR Subrianmaian is before us who has recommended division of Postal Department in 6 Companies. Out of which only one Company of Mail & Delivery will be Govt. Company and others will work as Corporations. Besides so many issues are pending before Government to settle. If we have to achieve all the pending demands and have to resist the attacks and dangers, we have to strengthen NFPE by increasing the membership. Tell the employees that NFPE is only non-affiliated Federation. All other Federations are affiliated to Political Trade Union Centres. The situation  cannot be changed without the NFPE emerging  not only as the first  union in all  cadres  and categories but  also emerging  as the strongest organization of  each and  every  cadre in the ongoing  fresh verification.

NFPE and CHQs call upon the rank and file to:

1,         Give declarations in support of NFPE unions. Form signed by Director SR & &Legal should be used. The form can be downloaded from websites.

2.         Submit declarations to the Divisional Heads on 06.07.2015. The form will be signed  at 2 places . The name of union should also be correctly written,

3.         Submit list in triplicate to Divisional head duly signed by the authorized office bearer of union on each page of list.

4.         Vigilantly watch the scrutiny by the Divisional heads to protect our membership and do not hesitate to oppose in writing including the special officer appointed by the Chief PMG if any  bias or favoritism is exhibited by the Divisional Heads.  

5.         Tell every employee for not signing for more than one union as it would make him non-member.

6.         Encourage members to write a complaint if his signature was either forged or forcibly taken by other union before 06.07.2015.

7.         Inform CHQs and NFPE , immediately on exhibition of Notice Board by the Divisional Heads during 07.07.2015  to 08.07.2015 , about the exact  number of membership of each and every organization participating in the verification . This is must.

8.         Recovery of subscription will be started from the month of July -2015 by the DDOs.

            With fraternal Greetings.
Yours Comradely,
                                                              Sdxx
