1.5 lakh post offices to be converted into banks


PTI -NEW DELHI
The humble post office is all set to undergo a radical change with a proposal to convert over 1.5 lakh post offices across the nation into full fledged banks on the anvil.
Telecom Minister Kapil Sibal wants to reach out to the masses in the rural areas with modern banking facilities through the post offices. "We want to commercialise the department. We will seek a licence from the RBI to convert all our post offices into banks," Mr. Sibal told PTI.
The lack of modern banking facilities in rural areas and dependence of villagers on informal sector for their credit requirements has prompted the government to work on financial inclusion by way of setting up 'postal banks'.
"The State Bank of India can't build branches all over India, but there are post offices across India. The branches are already there, so infrastructure expenditure is not required. So you can actually give banking facilities at relatively lower costs, which would be extremely beneficial to people," he said.
The post offices currently offer financial services like savings bank, postal life insurance, pension payments and money transfer services. Its total corpus stood at Rs. 5,82,832.9 crore as on March 31, 2011.
DoP's revenues grew 11 per cent to Rs. 6,954.09 crore in 2010-2011 from Rs. 6,266.70 crore in the previous fiscal.
However, negative growth rate in some circles has pushed the Department's deficit to Rs. 6,625 crore in FY'11, almost equal to the annual revenue of the Department.

Clarification regarding Membership altaration/withdrawal or inclusion on new membership- regarding issued by the Department.

Note : - copy of DTE order on the subject above for new membership.
 By - S.P.Kulkarni, President.

RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED IN FEDERAL EXECUTIVE OF NFPE HELD AT LUCKNOW ON 26 & 27 JULY, 2011.

THIS FEDERAL EXECUTIVE MEETING OF NFPE HELD AT LUCKNOW FROM 26-07.2011 TO 27.07.2011 AFTER DETAILED DELIBERATIONS ON ALL ISSUES RELATED TO THE PROPOSED INDEFINITE STRIKE FROM 2011 JULY 5TH HAS RESOLVED THE FOLLOWING:

This Federal Executive has come to the unanimous conclusion that, under the given circumstances the settlement reached with the Administration on the 25 points Charter of Demands is the best possible and fully ratify the decision of the JCA to defer the strike.

This Federal Executive further direct the NFPE & JCA leadership to take follow up action to get orders released on all the agreed items in a time bound manner.

This Federal Executive demand the Secretary, Department of Posts, to arrange another review meeting on the PLI related issues as the decentralization  of certain important PLI/RPLI functions to Divisions has been done contrary to the sprit of the discussions held on 01.07.2011. Review meetings may also be arranged with the unions of Civil Wing and Postal Accounts as assured during the final round of discussion.

Regarding the formation of the Committee to review the Speed Post hubs and first class hubs (L 1,L 2) the Federal Executive is of the unanimous view that the induction of new technology and consequent changes in the mail processing should not lead to indiscriminate closure/merger of existing RMS Offices and interest of employees should be protected. The delay in public mail should be avoided and speedy delivery of articles should be ensured.

The Federal Executive further resolve that if any unilateral violation of the assurances given to the Staff Side take place then NFPE and JCA shall organize agitational programmes.

APPEAL TO ALL CHQ/CWC COMRADES-

Dear Comrades,

You are aware about the Rival AISBCE Unions one item program to withdraw the Recognition of this Association is totally antidemocratic and against SBCO Staff interest. One side Staff is suprssed by Authorities at all level. Department has no any constructive proposal for SBCO in Future. SBCO staff is facing Punishments under Different Fraud cases. For routine work no any Rules and Procedure adopted but the  same Rules are used to punished the staff. There are burning issues in all circles. Not a single authority is in favor of SBCO staff. Even So called AISBCE Unioin is fully supporting to all activities which are totally against SBCO working to authorities. Still  not signle authority is considering SBCO issues. So called AISBCE union claiming as it is big union in SBCO cadre it is not considered for ant All India issues by Department. Being non federal it has not any All India Policy. Since 4/5 years no all India meetings with high rank officers . Not a single reply received by it from the Department on Policy matter or on matters raised by them.  in their circulars only letters sent by CHQ to Authorities are published. Not a single letter from Department is their . Still they are proud of Recognition. Not a single union or Federation (NFPE/FNPO/BPEF ) is supporting them. Being a non federal union though they are Recognized they cannot aproach at Department/Govt level for their issues.

Comrades. we are fighters. we dont depend on others for our survival. We can protect our staff in any condition. This Recognition issue will be handled by this CHQ properly. we will face it CHQ level with your moral support. Your faith & support is sufficient for us to face this issue at any level. we will succeed to retain our position confirmed.Dont fear or Confused.

On the other side  newly recognized our Association having support of Strongest NFPE federation. Having involved with Firm all India policy to maintain identity of SBCO as Accounting Cadre. Fighting against Department for Staff issues. Having 15 years experience to work without recognition but functioning with Federations which are fighting for staff interest. Fighting for safe future of SBCO staff. Facing so many court cases against Recoveries/ Punishments in different courts to support SBCO staff.Getting results from Govt/Misistry level in so many isues, Having firm policy and program with support of Federations for its Firm policy.

All SBCO STAFF is fully aware about the fighting spirit of this association. Other side so calledAISBCE union having only one program to withdraw Recognition of our association granted by the Department following Departmental Procedure. But by misusing status of working at CO /RO level this union office bearrers are pressurising SBCO staff for membership and reported wrong figures and issue of Recognition of this asociation is hilighted. Staff is misguided and misleaded by them. They are making propagenda of this issue that the Recognition of association is Withdrawn. We are not bothered about it. The matter will be handled by this CHQ.

Comrades we are struggling for SBCO issues since 1993 TBOP/BCR issues which are opened the doors to SBCO to reach up to HSG-I scale at the time of Retirment. Up to 1993 this so called AISBCE union was helpless to get  any benefit either as Postal operative staff or as Audit staff. But it was our efforts to bring SBCO with them. Wheather we are recognized at that time. We are experince to fight with authorities/Govt for staff interests. we are not depend on Recognition for saving interests of the Staff. Also we are hankfull to the staff who supported and joined with us in our mission.

Comrades your support to maintain our Position by all means is required. Send Maximum funds to CHQ by name  to S.P.Kulkarni, President 1447 A ward Shivaji peth Kolhapur-416012 (Mh) or To Shri. S Appanraj General secretary SBCO Madurai H.O. ( T.N). Contact for Details to CHQ.

Make aware to our staff about the facts as how this AISBCE union which has no any statis at Departmental Level, Not supporting staff issues but only getting advantage of recognition issue. It will ruine SBCO bysuch anti staff interest policy.

Comrades, Be carefull for our existance and be ready to save our self respect & existance by supporting this CHQ by all means. We are sure to maintain our position at DTE level. We will win !!!!!!!!!

-By S.P.Kulkarn, President.
