VERIFICATION OF TRANSACTIONS IN CBS POST OFFICES - AN IMPORTANT ORDER FROM SRI. SACHIN KISHORE, DIRECTOR (CBS) - WRITTEN BY ADMIN ON JUN 3, 2016
Subject: Verification of Transactions in CBS Post Offices.
I am directed to inform that it has been observed by Infosys Team from the backend that Supervisors of CBS Post Offices are not verifying transactions on regular basis which is resulting in pilling up of transactions for verification at the closing hours. This is also resulting in delay is starting and completion of End of Day operations.
It is requested that instructions may be issued to all CBS Post Offices that every Supervisor to regularly verify transactions and should visit all Transaction Verification menus after every 30 minutes to see any pending transaction for verification.
This should be strictly followed.
Supervisors are also bound to verify all non financial modifications and it is observed that hundreds of such modifications are pending for verification. This is resulting in non picking up of such accounts by interest batches and customers are complaining that interest is not generated for his/her account.
This should also be ensured that Supervisors should verify all non financial modifications and account opening regularly.It is also observed that some post offices start BO transaction posting very late resulting in delay in starting of EOD. It is requested that transactions of BOs should be either completed by 4.30 PM or should be posted on the next day. [ SD: Sachin Kishore. Director (CBS)]

Sub: Cadre restructure of SBCO cadre –Awaiting Directorate orders-reg
Ref: Our Union proposal given to the Chairman Sri. V.P.Singh vide letter No:CHQ/AISBCEU/2014/01 Dt. 01.01.2014.
I wish to bring your kind notice about the partial implementation of Cadre Restructure to Group ‘C’ cadre by excluding our SBCO cadre in addition to all other cadres other than Postal Assistant cadre [General Line].
The recruitment process will be the same for all cadres in the Department of Posts in r/o Postal Assistant cadre [General Line], RMS, R-III , PA CO and PA SBCO . Then, the reason is not known for the step mother treatment in issuing order to a particular cadre in the matter of a staff welfare issue of “Cadre Restructure”. Either, it should be issued to all cadres or deferred.
While implementing the TBOP w.e.f. 01.04.1983, the similar promotion order was issued by the Department to Postal Assistant Cadre [General Line] only. Later on, the SBCO Union took efforts to get TBOP w.e.f. 01.08.1991 after that the similar promotion was implemented to Administrative cadre of Regional/Circle office staff w.e.f. 01.10.1991.
Now also, the similar method is followed by issuing Cadre restructure order to Postal Assistant cadre [General Line) only. This kind of partial action will create displeasure among the staff of other cadres.
It is kindly requested to adopt a uniform policy in this matter and issue orders to all left out wings including SBCO cadre as a onetime measure as early as possible.
An early action is highly solicited. [A.Mhathre, General Secretary]
GENERAL SECRETARY DTE. VISIT, NEW DELHI TOUR PROGRAM – 20 & 21stJUNE 2016
In the coming 20 & 21st June 2016, I have planned to visit Directorate to discuss our major problems faced after CBS implementation, victimization of SBCO staff. Redeployment of PAs from SOSB branch, Time factor for the SBCO work after CBS implementation and cadre restructure etc.
Copy of the CHQ Letter addressed to Secretary Shri.S.K.Sinha [Post] vide No : AISBCEU CHQ/2015/80 Dated 22.05.2016
Sub : Regarding implementation of SB Order No. 14/2015 and subsequent letter No. 25-11/2016 – SB Dated 10/11.05.2016 – Difficulties caused to SBCO staff..
As per SB Order 14/2015 circulated under your office file no. 116-15/2013-SB (Pt-SBCO) dated 19.10.2015 and subsequent letter No. 25-11/2016 – SB Dated 10/11.05.2016 SBCO has to check vouchers with LOT generated by MIS server and tally the consolidations received from SOs with consolidations generated by MIS server. But following difficulties are being faced while working with the prescribed procedure.
1. Most of the time the MIS server remains inaccessible. Therefore the SBCO section finds difficulties in checking the vouchers with LOTs and comparing the consolidations generated by MIS server.
2. At present all SBCO sections are running with 60 % shortage of staff. In most of the HO only one or two staffs are posted. This meager strength cannot complete all the work expected by the Department.
3. Recently frauds are detected in Tamilnadu Circle and Uttar Pradesh Circle. It is unjustified that supervisor SBCO is held responsible in the fraud case of Tamilnadu Circle as no sufficient staff was provided to SBCO for performing necessary check to prevent the fraud.
4. It is also fact that most of the SBCO staff has not been given training in finacle. Some of the staff got training when their offices were not migrated to finacle. Now all the HOs are migrated to finacle and staff is working in finacle without full and proper knowledge.
5. Time factor is also not fixed for SBCO staff for working in finacle. This union has taken this issue many times but there is no any direction from the Directorate.
This union therefore request the administration that -
1. Time factor for the SBCO work in finacle should be fixed immediately.
2. Revision of SBCO staff should be ordered and justified staff should be provided immediately.
3. SBCO staff should not be held responsible for the pending work which they could not complete because of non providing justified staff.
4. This union wishes to have a meeting with your good self to discuss the difficulties in this regard. It is
therefore also requested to spare your valuable time and give meeting to this union please.
A line of reply is expected from your good self please. (P. A. Mhatre, General Secretary)

Dear Comrades,
In the past three recruitments in SBCO cadre between 2011 to 2015, more than 1200 newly recruited PAs were joined in SBCO cadre. Most of them were given membership declaration form to our Union and I convey my sincere thanks to them for continuing their full support to our Union for all activities of staff and policy matters. AISBCE Union is the only Union to take care of staff welfare of SBCO cadre. I wish to remember our Union achievements for SBCO cadre to your kind information.
Before that, I wish to point out the partial step mother treatment of the Department and also by the major Union of NFPE. One of our sister Union for SBCO cadre is affiliated with this major Union, but it could not achieve anything for SBCO cadre in the past three years including cadre restructure. Recently, the Department issued order for Cadre restructure for Postal Assistant cadre [General Line] by excluding all other cadres of RMS, R-III & R-IV, Mailguard, Mail Men, MMS, Postman, PA CO , PA SBCO , Postal Accounts and Postmaster Cadre. Actually, this should not be accepted by the Manor Union unless the same would be implemented to the left out cadres. But, it is not done by the Union.
I wish to remember our Union achievements for SBCO cadre to your kind information.
1. While implementing the TBOP w.e.f. 01.04.1983, the similar promotion order was issued by the Department to Postal Assistant Cadre[General Line] only. After our personal efforts by SBCO Union with the Dy.Prime Minister [Late]Sri.Devilal, we got TBOP w.e.f. 01.08.1991 after that the similar promotion was implemented to Administrative cadre of Regional/circle office staff w.e.f. 01.10.1991 belongs to NFPE Union.
2. In the meant time i.e. from 1983 to 1991. Our SBCO Union had taken efforts with administration to implement 80:20 [UDC/LDC] promotion to SBCO cadre likewise Postal audit staff. But, it was objected by the rival Union, otherwise we may also be treated as Postal accounts organized cadre.
3. More number of LSG, HSG-II & HSG-I posts were created for the senior officials promotion in our Circle.
4. Our Union General Secretary Sri.I.D.Sharma had given suicide notice to the Directorate to implement the Rotational transfers with in the cluster. After that only, the Directorate issued orders to form the clusters by merging 2 to 3 HOS and transfers the officials with in the cluster
5. Nomination of Divisional Representative post – It was approved by the Directorate to solve the divisional problems with Divisional Heads in the monthly meeting just like other Unions.
With regards.
