From the desk of general secretary, all India association of postal supervisors,

Compiled the following significant things, happened during 2018 under the banner of AIAPS



1. Year 2018 was started with many challenges in front of us, since even after secty Posts meeting, minutes copy was not provided by saying more than 3 agendas discussed and 7 AIAPS members were participated in the secty posts meeting dated 25/7/17.  Meetings with directorate officers are not only to discuss the things but to get solutions to our prolonged issues. So aggrieved with that reply of the directorate, during January 2018 filed an OA at Hon'ble chennai CAT and got court direction to give the minutes copy for the same Secty Posts meeting discussion dated 25.7.17 within 12 weeks.


2. So immediately PM CR proposal is initiated on 31.01.2018.


3. During April 2018  more members were enrolled and new aiaps divisions were also constituted through out the circles.



4. During May 2018, West Bengal Circle was formed newly with AIAPS. I had personally attended the WB conference, which was arranged neatly.
