Respected sir,

        Vide above reference 1 of Postal directorate, it is sought the stake holders to submit the suggestions and comments regarding revision/amendment in PSS Group B recruitment rules to conduct the PSS Group B exams for the vacancies arising from 2016-2017.

Since proposed PSS Group B recruitment rules are having very meager promotional opportunities to the operative side postmasters, vide Reference 2, this service association submitted its analytical suggestion with full-fledged data to the postal directorate to revise the PSS Group B LDCE quota of 25% to the open competition to IP/ASP officials and to the postmasters.
