Dear Comrades,
As scheduled, the Circle Working Committee Meeting (CWC) of our AIAIPASP (Tamil Nadu Circle branch) was held at Vailankanni on 6th January 2012 (Friday). During the CWC meeting, the following subjects were taken up for discussion and decisions were taken unanimously. The body has directed the Circle Secretary to take up the matters/decisions with the appropriate level.
1. Approval of the minutes of the last CWC held at Kanyakumari on 19.08.2011:
The body has approved the minutes of the last CWC held at Kanyakumari on 19.08.2011 unanimously.
2. Unpleasant situations prevailing in Southern Region and Central Region:
i. The members of the CWC unanimously opposed the anti-attitude of Shri. V.S. Jayashankar, DPS, Madurai and Ms. Nirmala Devi, Director, PTC, Madurai against the IP/ASP cadre – for insulting the cadre people by conducting arbitrary ‘one to one’ review meetings in the name of technology, uttering sarcastic comments & usage of unparliamentary words against our members and also issue of transfers to few of them for flimsy reasons.
ii. This body had also unanimously opposed the anti-attitude of Shri. Bhadur Singh, PMG, Central Region in transferring the IP/ASPs of Central Region, in the middle of the academic year.
Action suggested: The CWC has directed the CS to submit a memorandum opposing such anti-attitudes, to the PMG/DPS of Madurai/Central Regions to stop insulting our members and to stop using ‘transfer’ as a victimization tool. If there is no positive result for the above action, then it is decided to go for agitational activities.
3. Formation of cluster in Regions – Tenure policy in Tamil Nadu Circle:.
Vide CO letter No. STA/3-2/2010 dated 25.10.2011, clusters in Regions have been formed and this CWC unanimously opposed such formation of clusters and decided to protest this concept, for multi various reasons. Such formation of clusters, is unconstitutional and not being adapted in any other circles.
Action suggested: The CWC has directed the CS to submit a letter opposing this formation of cluster/tenure policy, to the CPMG and also to the DG, Posts through our CHQ. If there is no positive result for the above action, then it is decided to fight legally.
4. Abnormal delay in convening DPC for promotion from IPs to ASPs:
The members of the CWC unanimously opposed and recorded their displeasure in the abnormal delay in convening DPC for promotion from IP to ASPs. The members also viewed that when there are many clear vacancies available, why the Circle Administration is making adhoc arrangement instead of regular promotion. The CWC also suggested to prepare a panel of IPs and to issue regular orders whenever vacancy arises, without loss of time..
Action suggested: The CWC has directed the CS to submit a letter to the CPMG to intervene and to order for early convening of DPC and also not to order adhoc arrangements for clear vacancies.

5. Reallotment of IPs/ASPs:
Many cases of IPs/ASPs request for reallotment to their own Regions/other Regions, are not being considered or delayed, for some or other reasons. Even the genuine cases under ‘spouse’ category, medical, family grounds also are not considered. The Members expressed their difficulties. Before issue of regular promotional orders from IP to ASPs, issuance of reallotment should be given priority, as it would be beneficial to the senior officers.
Action suggested: The CWC has urged the CS to submit a letter to the CPMG for early reallotment and also to discuss the issue in the ensuing four monthly meeting to be held during this January 2012 and to ensure that the reallotment orders are issued immediately.
6. Up gradation of IP grade pay to Rs. 4,600:
Hon. CAT, Ernakulam bench in OA No. 381/2010 filed by few of our comrades in Kerala Circle has recommended to consider up gradation of grade pay of IP at par with that of the Inspectors - of income tax, of CBDT & of CBEC and to consider the upward revision of ASP as well. As this Circle Association has nothing to do with this issue at the Circle level, the CWC has directed the CS, Treasurer and other delegates who are planning to attend the proposed All India Conference to be held at Bangalore on 28th & 29th January 2012 - to discuss in the Central Working Committee and to suggest the GS, to have a liaison with the Directorate for its early implementation.

9. Local problems: The following local problems were taken up for discussion:
Ordering to hold additional charge:
It has come up for discussion, on many instances most of the ASP (HQ)/ASPs are being ordered to hold additional charge of IP sub divisions, which is totally contrary as ASPs are directed to hold additional charge of an inferior post. This CWC body expressed its displeasures in ordering such contrary orders.
Abnormal increase in the work load at Division due to decentralization of PLI/RPLI:
Due to decentralization of PLI/RPLI from CO/RO to Divisions, the work load at Divisions increased manifold. This CWC suggested creation of JAO/AAO post at Divisional level, exclusively for the purpose of PLI/RPLI.
Filling up of vacant posts of IP/ASP & IP (PG):
Of late, many IP/ASP Posts & IP (PG) posts are vacant which affects the neighbouring SDHs/other adjacent divisions. This CWC suggested filling up of all such vacant posts, at least on local arrangements.
Appointment of IO/PO from retired officials:
Due to appointment of IO/PO from the regular IP/ASPs, their regular work is badly affected. This CWC suggested not to appoint IO/PO from the regular IP/ASPs and the services of the retired IP/ASP/Group B officers can be utilized.
Action suggested: The CWC has urged the CS and the President to take up this local problems with CPMG, during the ensuing four monthly meeting, during January 2012 and arrange to settle the above local problems.

Circle Secretary, AIAIPASP, TN.
