Central staff to march to Parliament

The Confederation of Central Government Employees will take out a march to Parliament on July 26, demanding constitution of the Seventh Pay Commission and dismantling of the new pension scheme.

Talking to reporters in Chennai, general secretary of the Confederation M. Duraipandian said though the Centre had trumpeted that the Sixth Pay Commission had increased the salary of the employees by 28 to 40 per cent, increase in petrol prices and hike in the price of essential commodities had proved that salary hike was not adequate.

REVISED NORMS FOR POSTMEN

A look at the six most asked questions on UID

For more than 4 years, the 12-digit number called Aadhaar has generated more debate than action.

But now that 18 crore Indians do have this number and 42 crore more should have it by April 2013, it's time to focus more on what the number will—and can—really do.

For, it is the utility of the card that will make all the struggle in its implementation worthwhile—or worthless.

Here's a look at the six most asked questions on UID

1) What is Aadhaar authentication ? Is an individual's right of privacy ensured? 
Aadhaar authentication is a process through which the number, along with other attributes (demographics , biometrics or One-Time Pin), is submitted to UIDAI's Central Identities Data Repository (CIDR) for verification ; the CIDR verifies whether the data submitted matches the data available in CIDR and responds with a "yes/no" . No personal identity information is returned as part of the response.

Sincere work attempted to create awareness among the postmasters. Hats off to this website

POST MASTER CADRE WAS CREATED HASTILY WITHOUT PROPER UNDERSTANDING AND VISION AND WITHOUT CREATING RULES PERFECTLY. THIS IS THE ROUTE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. YOU CANNOT SEE EACH PROBLEM SEPERATELY. IT IS BETTER TO ABOLISH THAT CADRE AND MERGE IT WITH LSG/HSGII/HSGI AFTER CADRE RESTRUCTURAING BECAUSE THERE IS NO NEED TO HAVE SEPARATE CADRE OF POST MASTER. IT WAS CREATED ONLY TO DEVIDE THE POSTAL EMPLOYEES.

After copmletion of more than four years, HSG-I recruitment rules have not been finalised where as within less than 12 months PM Grade Recruitment rules have been framed and posting in the cadre of Grade-I & II have been done.The only object was to debarr the qualified officials from Adhoc HSG-I posts with grade pay of Rs.4600-.No any other reason would be there because of their quality.

After framing of HSG-I Recruitment Rules, fresh options will be invited from newly promoted HSG-I officials(the juniors to the PM Grade-II officials in the equivalent grade) to fill up the PM Gr-III posts.If any vacancy will be still there (the chances are very few), it will be filled up as per Col. 12 of respective rect't rules. We should be given chance of withdrawal of option from PM Grade because PM Grade-III posts have not been filled up through the initial constitution even after completion of more than 14 months. Endless waiting is clear injustice.-M K Sharma PM Grade-II Baloda Bazar(CG)493332.
