During the discussions on Strike Charter, we were asked to submit a note on the above subject when we pointed out the fact that many deserving cases are not being considered for compassionate appointment and the wards are undergoing untold hardship/misery.  They are virtually in streets, craving for help.

 An example of a case of Sri Ashok s/o Late Gopalakrishna, GDSMP, Agumbe in Shimoga Dn of Karnataka Circle was quoted.  The family condition is as follows.

Indefinite strike continued by GDS on 6th day

• Grant status as government servants to GDS employees as recommended by Justice Talwar committee and as per the judgment given by Hon'ble Supreme Court in 1977.
• Grant bonus to GDS employees similar to government servants.
• Provide medical benefits.
• Grant compassionate appointments in all cases by removing irrational conditions and restrictions/norms prescribed recently.
• Stop abolition of GDS posts and filling vacant posts in all categories of GDS in postal and RMS offices.
