16. Manning of Transit Sections by Mail guards only :- It is resolved manned by Mailguards in All Transit Sections, in all circles HSG/LSG Sorting Assistants officials are manning some sections where there is no work load. And also some sections two Mail Agents are working were there is no justification for two Mail Agents. In all circles, there is heavy OTA expenditure in Group’ C’ and Group ‘D’ almost there is no OT including for Mailguards cadre, further in the short term vacancies of Group ‘D’ and Mailguards substitutes a being arranged without incurring OT, where as necessarily OT has to be incurred in place of Group ‘C’ on several occasions , the Mail Agent post kept vacant even in sections. In view, of the above facts, the CHQ union requests the Director General of Posts to review the above issue and replace the Mail Agents by Mailguards in transit sections as per Mohinder Singh formula and replaced Mailagents can be arranged in mail offices to avoid OT.

The CHQ in this connection thanks the reception committee for its good arrangements. The Reception Committee: Com.
