PA/SA RECRUITMENT RULE MODIFIED

''Post Offices have been successful as payment banks'' : RBI Director

MUMBAI:  RBI director Nachiket Mor has said that world over post offices have been successful as "payment banks". IndiaPost is an applicant for a banking licence and a panel headed by Mor on financial inclusion has recommended creation of specialized "payment banks" which can open accounts, cash cheques and remit funds without engaging in lending.

Speaking on the sidelines of ET Edge's Financial Inclusion Summit 2014, Mor said that world over there are many successful payment banks. "In South Korea, for example, the post office bank is a payment bank. How does this become viable? It becomes viable on transactions, it does not make money on deposits," said Mor. On IndiaPost's application seeking a bank licence from the RBI, Mor said: "I don't want to speak specifically about India Post itself, what I'm saying is worldwide post offices have been very effective as payments banks."

India Post to install 3000 ATMs,1.35 lakh mirco-ATMs by Sept 15

We will be starting with three ATMs to be installed in New Delhi, Chennai and Bangalore on Feb 5," says postal dept secretary

Even as its application to start a commercial bank is pending, India Post has drawn a massive plan to install as many as 3,000 ATMs and 1.35 lakh micro-ATMs at the ubiquitous post offices across the country for savings account holders by September 2015, a top official has said.

"We will be starting with three ATMs to be installed in New Delhi, Chennai and Bangalore on February 5 and then ramp it up gradually," postal department secretary Padmini Gopinath told a select group of reporters here over the weekend.

She said 1,000 ATMs with the India Post branding will be put in within the first year, which will be ramped up massively to 3,000 in the next 18 months.

To start with, the ATMs can be used only by 26 crore savings account-holders who save with the postal department, but Gopinath exuded confidence that within six months of the launch, they will get the interoperability permission from the Reserve Bank.

Postal savings are worth around Rs 6.05 trillion, which is half the savings in the largest lender SBI and more than double that of the largest private sector lender ICICI Bank.

Through interoperability, India Post will join the National Financial Switch, which will benefit India Post account holders to transact at the banks' ATMs and vice versa, she added.

Time to take a decision

Dear Postmasters,

       You know that we are all struggling since 2 years for redressal of our day to day problems with the administration.  But, we couldn’t succeed due to one or another reasons.  We have set up an association at Circle Level and elected ad-hoc body for taking up our problems.  Though succeeded to some extent, we couldn’t solve most of the issues as we are following Maharashtra Postmasters association for getting recognition by the Directorate/Circle office.  Efforts made by Maharashtra Circle are still pending with Directorate.  They didn’t come for our membership verification.

       On 12.01.2014 Postmaster Association, Maharashtra circle have taken a decision to join in the existing Postal Supervisors Association which is having Department recognition for getting all kinds of facilities of a recognized association.  In postmasters Maharashtra blog also they advised other circles also to try like this.

Reserve Bank to withdraw all pre-2005 currency notes from circulation

MUMBAI: The Reserve Bank on Wednesday decided to withdraw all currency notes issued prior to 2005, including Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 denominations, after March 31 in a move apparently aimed at curbing black money and fake currencies. 

"After March 31, 2014, it (RBI) will completely withdraw from circulation all bank notes issued prior to 2005. From April 1, 2014, the public will be required to approach banks for exchanging these notes," the RBI said in a statement. 

The public can easily distinguish the currency notes issued before 2005 as they do not have the year of printing on reverse side. The year of printing in a small font is visible at the middle of the bottom row in notes issued after 2005.

Govt Employees near Retirement should not be disturbed: CAT

New Delhi, Sep 5 (PTI) The Central Administrative Tribunal has held that government employees on the verge of superannuation should not be disturbed merely because they have stayed for a considerably long period at a particular place. 

The apex tribunal said that such a benefit should be extended to superannuating employees to retire peacefully at a particular place after years of dedicated service. 

"Merely because the applicants have a long stay and the transfer order could not be implemented so far would not by itself constitute sufficient reason. 

"There is an objective based on considerations of welfare behind such provision in the transfer policy as it would enable a person about to retire after a long and devoted service to make arrangements for settling down thereafter with his family, acquire a house if not already done," Member N D Dayal said.
