CAT CASE AGAINST PS GROUP "B " EXAMINATION & POSTMASTER CADRE

CAT case filed in Chandigarh bench was listed for today. The case has been adjourned to 24.05.2011 after having assurance from the Department that they will file written reply before the next date of hearing. If Department failed to do so, we will request Hon’ble Court to provide interim relief . In case the department filed the reply ,the case will be heard on merit.

I am receiving number of calls from my esteemed members to know the nature of case we have filed, whether it is against the PS Group “B” examination or Postmaster cadre. It is for the information of members that the case is neither against any examination nor Postmaster cadre. We are fighting for correct calculation of vacancies under each quota and promote the IP/ASP in their respective quota of vacancies. You will agree that there are 866 posts of PS Group B, out of which 649 (75% of total strength) posts have been earmarked for the promotion through seniority cum fitness from IP Line officials, 165(19%) posts through Limited Departmental Competitive Examination from IP Line and 52(6%) posts from General Line officials through examination. Now, since Postmaster cadre has been carved out by creating 116 posts from General Line ,(see Notification) then why and how the LDCE is being conducted for 6% General Line officials. As far as 19% quota is concerned ,the roster for this quota is already full. At present , 162 out of 165 posts are filled, how 32 vacancies have been calculated by the Department. Finally, we have demanded that there should not be any effect on 649 posts earmarked for promotion through seniority of IP Line officials. Examination should be held if there is any vacancy in their respective quota and distribution of vacancies for Examination should only be within 25% without effecting 75% quota.
