Darpan -Rs.1400 Crore Project for Financial Inclusion Of Rural Population

Rural Post offices in a Modern form – Darpan (Digital Advancement of Rural Post Office for A New India)

 The Minister of Communications Shri Manoj Sinha today launched DARPAN – “Digital Advancement of Rural Post Office for A New India” Project to improve the quality of service, add value to services and achieve “financial inclusion” of un-banked rural population. He said, the goal of the IT modernization project with an outlay of Rs. 1400 Crore is to provide a low power technology solution to each Branch Postmaster (BPM) which will enable each of approximately 1.29 Lakhs Branch Post Offices (BOs) to improve the level of services being offered to rural customers across all the states. Shri Sinha said that as on date, 43,171 Branch Post Offices have migrated under the “DARPAN”projectwith the aim of financial inclusion to rural population and it is targeted to complete the project by March, 2018.
The Project shall increase the rural reach of the Department of Posts and enable BOs to increase traffic of all financial remittances, savings accounts, Rural Postal Life Insurance, and Cash Certificates; improve mail operations processes by allowing for automated booking and delivery of accountable article; increase revenue using retail post business; provide third party applications; and make disbursements for social security schemes such as MGNREGS.
As part of IT modernization project, the Department of Posts (DoP) has carried out business process reengineering across various functional areas and has created To-Be processes that will enable it to achieve these objectives. As an achievement, Department of Posts has established 991 ATMs across the country, which are interoperable with other banks and the common people has directly benefited with the wide network of Department of Posts especially in rural areas. Till now, 1,12,85,217 transactions have been carried out on the DOP’s ATMs out of which 70,24,214 transactions have been done by the non-DOP customers. Department of Posts is the only Government player in this space.  
For more than 150 years, the Department of Posts (DoP) has been the backbone of the country’s communication and has played a crucial role in the country’s socio-economic development. It touches the lives of Indian citizens in many ways: delivering mails, accepting deposits under Small Savings Schemes, providing life insurance cover under Postal Life Insurance (PLI) and Rural Postal Life Insurance (RPLI) and providing retail services like bill collection, sale of forms, etc. The Department of Posts also acts as an agent for Government of India in discharging other services for citizens such as Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) wage disbursement and old age pension payments. With 1.5 lakh Post Offices (approximately), the Department of Posts has the most widely distributed postal network in the world.
Trends such as urbanization, increased demand for financial services, increased funding by the government for the weaker sections and the rural sector, have opened up new opportunities for the Department of Posts,which in turn has necessitated development of new processes and supporting technology. The Department of Posts is also faced with twin challenges of increasing competition and continuing advances in communication technology, especially in mobile telephony and the Internet. In order to provide the best-in-class customer service, deliver new services and improve operational efficiencies,the Department of Posts has undertaken an end to end IT modernization project to equip itself with requisite modern tools and technologies. The IT modernization project intends to achieve the following:
  1. Wider reach to the Indian populace through more customer interaction channels
  2. Better customer service
III. Growth through new lines of business
  1. IT enablement of business processes and support functions

Donate Rs 200 each for Flag Day, DoPT tells govt staff

Tribune News Service: Chandigarh, November 13

With Armed Forces Flag Day being round the corner, the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) has issued an advisory to all Central ministries and departments directing that all government employees donate a minimum of Rs 200 out of their salaries for the month of November.

The Flag Day fund, generated out of donations from citizens, is a major source of funding for welfare and rehabilitation of war widows, ex-servicemen and dependants.  

The Department of Personnel and Training  advisory stems from an appeal from the Department of Ex-servicemen Welfare in this regard. December 7 is observed as the Armed Forces Flag Day to commemorate the sacrifices of men in uniform. 

Last year, Rs 58.84 lakh were collected, a marginal dip over Rs 59.85 lakh collected in 2015, according to the Ministry of Defence figures. The fund has a corpus of about Rs 290 crore and out of the interest earned on this, 7.5 per cent is deposited back in the corpus and the remaining amount is used to fund welfare schemes.

While thanking the Circle Administration in solving the pay fixation and drawl of allowances in respect of ASPs who are working in PS Group-B cadre on adhoc basis in Tamilnadu Circle it is resolved to request the Circle administration to settle the  following issues which are still pending to be finalized.

a.    Shri.M.Dharmaraj, ASP who was working as Assistant Director[BD&Tech],Office of the Postmaster General, Western Region, Coimbatore on adhoc arrangement had retired on 31.8.2016 on superannuation as Assistant Director in PS Group-B cadre. But, the Pay and Pension of the above officer has been fixed as applicable to ASP cadre only. The above officer has submitted a representation to the CPMG on 1.9.2016 which is still pending to be disposed.

b.     Shri.R.Loganathan, ASP,Chennai City Central Division was promoted to PS Group-B cadre on Ad-hoc arrangement and posted as SP, PSD,Tiruchirapalli vide Circle Office memo no. STB/20-3/2016/CCR dated 27.01.2017 and he assumed charge on 15.2.2017. Consequently, the Pay of the officer has been fixed as 73400/- under Pay matrix level-9 as applicable to PS Group B officer. But subsequently, before his retirement on 30.7.2017, the entitlement slip of the above officer has been revised by the GM Postal Accounts and Finance, Chennai and ordered for the recovery of the so called excess payment and his pensionary benefits fixed as applicable to ASP Cadre.

In both the cases, even though the orders were issued clearly by the Circle Office for making Ad-hoc arrangement in PS Group-B cadre, the Postal Accounts of TN Circle has taken a different view unilaterally ignoring the orders of the CO and rules on the subject. A detailed representation has been given to the CPMG on the above case and the officer has also represented individually. This CWC requests the CPMG TN Circle to intervene and issue necessary orders for the fixation of Pay and Pensionary benefits to Shri.M.Dharmaraj and Shri.P.Loganathan and render justice.

c.    After the implementation of VII CPC, the Grade Pay of the IP,ASP and SPs in the Department of Posts have been up graded as 4600/-, 4800/- and 5400/- respectively. Accordingly, the Pay of the ASPs was fixed as 4800/- under level-8 of the Pay matrix as per VII CPC with effect from 1.1.2016 correctly. Shri.V.Gunaseelan, ASP,CCR and

d.    Shri.A.Venkatesan, ASP,CCR were eligible for Financial Upgradation under MACP-3 after completion of 30 years of service as on 17.1.2016 and 28.2.2016 respectively. The Financial Up gradation of Pay of the above officers should have been fixed as 5400/- under Level-9 in the Pay matrix as per the orders of the Department and VII CPC. But, this has not been done and they were denied financial up gradation under MACP-III by Chennai City Region. In this connection, it is pointed out that an order issued by CPMG, Andhra circle for fixing financial up gradation under MACP-III for ASPs who have completed 30 years of service or 10 years of service in ASP cadre was handed over to CPMG Sir during the last 4 monthly meeting as a reference and it was assured that all future MACP-3 cases for ASPs will be fixed at Level-9 under Pay matrix.This CWC requests the CPMG TN Circle to consider the genuine demands of the above officers and issue orders for the correct fixation of Pay and allowances as admissible under VII CPC.

e.    Similarly, individual representations have been given by many senior ASPs who have already completed 30 years of service and got financial up gradation under MACP-III  before the implementation of VII CPC and Grade Pay fixed as Rs.4800/- as applicable to PS Group –B officers in the Department. The CWC requests the CPMG TN Circle to consider the genuine demands of the above ASPs for fixation of Pay with Grade Pay as Rs.5400/- under Pay matrix Level-9 as per the Gazette notification in which the Grade pay of Rs.4800/- in respect of SPOs has been up graded as Rs.5400/- with effect from 1.1.2016.

Cabinet approves modifications in pay structure, pay matrices :Financial Express

The Union Cabinet, chaired by PM Modi, recently approved important proposals relating to modifications in the 7th CPC (Central Pay Commission) recommendations on pay structure and revision of the three pay matrices in the course of their implementation
https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyMJcsSl45POpF99dWNtiMiqPDmsKgqCqrNcmbiCCUmXy3qmeiHEloxLVrbdi1QbsZFuEYAmt1tkayzCB8pTtyp2t1-7t4a1cymCjg9Z1TLdCMWTAy2pwsf4nBPg9ffcZE82N-bajGm1Y/s1600/modi-reuters-2.jpg
The Cabinet has now approved further modifications in the pay structure and the three Pay Matrices, i.e. Civil, Defence and Military Nursing Service (MNS).


The Union Cabinet, chaired by PM Modi, recently approved important proposals relating to modifications in the 7th CPC (Central Pay Commission) recommendations on pay structure and revision of the three pay matrices in the course of their implementation.


The Cabinet, while approving the 7th CPC recommendations for their implementation on 29th June, 2016, had made two modifications in the Defence Pay Matrix as under:

(a) Index of Rationalisation (IOR) of Level 13A (Brigadier) may be increased from 2.57to2.67.
(b) Additional 3 stages in Levels 12A (Lt. Col.), 3 stages in Level 13 (Colonel) and 2 stages in Level 13A (Brigadier) may be added.
The Cabinet has now approved further modifications in the pay structure and the three Pay Matrices, i.e. Civil, Defence and Military Nursing Service (MNS). The modifications are listed below:

  • Defence Pay Matrix has been extended to 40 stages similar to the Civil Pay Matrix: The 7th CPC had recommended a compact Pay Matrix for Defence Forces personnel keeping in view the number of levels, age and retirement profiles of the service personnel. The Ministry of Defence raised the issue that the compact nature of the Defence Pay Matrix may lead to stagnation for JCOs in Defence Forces and proposed that the Defence Pay Matrix be extended to 40 stages. The Cabinet decision to extend the Defence Pay Matrix will benefit the JCOs who can continue in service without facing any stagnation till their retirement age of 57 years.
  • IOR for Levels 12 A (Lt. Col. and equivalent) and 13 (Colonel and equivalent) in the Defence Pay Matrix and Level 13 (Director and equivalent) in the Civil Pay Matrix has been increased from 2.57 to 2.67: Variable IOR ranging from 2.57 to 2.81 has been applied by the 7th CPC to arrive at Minimum Pay in each Level on the premise that with enhancement of Levels from Pay Band 1 to 2, 2 to 3 and onwards, the role, responsibility and accountability increases at each step in the hierarchy. This principle has not been applied in respect of Levels 12A (Lt. Col. and equivalent), 13 (Colonel and equivalent) and 13A (Brigadier and equivalent) of Defence Pay Matrix and Level 13 (Director and equivalent) of the Civil Pay Matrix on the ground that there was a disproportionate increase in entry pay at the level pertaining to GP 8700 in the 6th CPC regime. The IOR for Level 13A (Brigadier and equivalent) in the Defence Pay Matrix has already been revised upwards with the approval of the Cabinet earlier. In view of the request from Ministry of Defence for raising the IOR for Levels 12 A and 13 of the Defence Pay Matrix and requests from others, the IOR for these levels has been revised upwards to ensure uniformity of approach in determining the IOR.
  • To give effect to the decisions to extend the Defence Pay Matrix and to enhance the IORs, the three Pay Matrices – Civil, Defence and MNS – have also been revised. While doing so, two calculation errors noticed in the MNS Pay Matrix have also been rectified.
  • To ensure against reduction in pay, benefit of pay protection in the form of Personal Pay was earlier extended to officers when posted on deputation under Central Staffing Scheme (CSS) with the approval of Cabinet. The benefit will also be available to officers coming on Central Deputation on posts not covered under the CSS.

No. AIAIPASPs/TN/ VII CPC/04/dlgs                 dated at Chennai 600 018 the        24.04.2017.

Respected Sir,

Subject: - Irregular fixation of Pay and Allowances-case of Shri.R.Loganathan, ASP and offtg Superintendent, PSD, Tiruchirapalli -regarding

Ref: -Letter no. 67/PG/GE-I/ES/2016-2017 dated 12.04.2017 issued by Sr.Accounts Officer, Pay Group, office of the General Manager [Postal Accounts &Finance], Chennai
                                                -o-o-o-o-
            In pursuance of the Chief Postmaster General, Tamilnadu Circle Memo No .STC /1-6(A)/16 dtd 21.07.2016, Shri.R.Loganathan , ASP,Chennai City Central Division was promoted to PS Group B cadre on Ad-hoc basis and posted as Superintendent of Post offices, Kanchipuram Division and he assumed charge on 27.07.2016.Subsequently the above officer was posted as Superintendent ,PSD, Trichy vide CO memo no.;STB/20-3/2016 /CCR dtd 27.01.2017 and he assumed charge on 15.02.2017 F/N .  Consequently , the Officer is entitled to get his pay fixed at  Rs.73,400/- under Pay Matrix level-9 as applicable to PS Group B officers as per 7th Pay  commission.  Accordingly , the entitlement slip of the officer was correctly issued by the GM(PAF) Chennai vide Letter no. 1532/PG/GE-1/ES/2016-2017 dtd 21.11.2016.
            But subsequently , the  Sr.Accounts Officer Pay Group ,O/o GM(PAF) vide his letter no 67/PG/GE-I/ES/2016-17 dtd 12.04.2017,addressed to the Postmaster , Kanchipuram HO has  mentioned that the Pay of the above Officer was inadvertently  fixed as Rs.73,400/- at level-9 , pending clarification sought for . He has also mentioned in the letter that as the officer had got MACP III on 15.02.2012 and as per the MACP orders, no fixation of pay is allowed on promotion and difference of grade pay only to be allowed, as grade pay is not in vogue in 7th CPC . By citing this ,he informed the DDO that  the pay of the above officer is revised to Rs.70,000/- in Pay Matrix Level-8 with effect from 26.07.2016 till 31.12.2016 and ordered for the recovery of the so called excess paid Pay and Allowances. Based on his interpretation he has issued the the revised entitlement slip for the above officer.

In this connection, the following are submitted for the kind information and urgent intervention of CPMG ,Tamilnadu Circle.

1.       The Officer has been ordered to work as Superintendent ,Kanchipuram Division and Subsequently as Superintendent PSD Tiruchirappalli in  PS Group B cadre  , on Ad-hoc basis by CPMG ,Tamilnadu Circle, and both of these posts carry  pay at Pay matrix level-9 as recommended by  the 7th CPC and approved by the Government of India.
2.      Hence the stand of the Sr.AO Pay Group denying the officer in drawl of the Pay entitled to the Post, which he holds, citing MACP scheme is totally wrong. The above Officer is entitled to get his Pay and Allowances as admissible under Rules for the post presently working as ordered by the Chief PMG, TN Circle, Chennai
3.      Therefore, the action of Sr.AO Pay Group, GM (PAF), Chennai denying the officer to draw pay applicable to the PSS Group B cadre and recovery of so called excess paid Pay and Allowance on the eve of his retirement is not in order.

 Therefore, It is requested to look into the issue and issue  necessary orders to
GM(PAF), Tamilnadu Circle to issue entitlement slip to Shri R.Loganathan, Superintendent , PSD ,Tiruchirapalli at RS.73,400/- under Pay  Level-9 with effect from 27.02.2016 as applicable to PS Group B officers as recommended by the 7th Pay commission and  approved by Government of India .


Thanking You Sir,


Yours sincerely,

[G.BABU],
Circle Secretary
