           It has been came to the notice of this union, that Head Post  Office and Sub Post offices were identified  as agencies through which the members of public and other entities will be exchanging the Withdrawn Old Series banknotes i.e.,Rs500/- and Rs.1000/-. In this connection the following immediate action may kindly  be taken for smooth functioning of the implementation of the scheme introduced by the Ministry of Finance.
 1.  Single handed and Double Handed Post offices are functioning with one SPM only due to
      acute shortage of staff in the division for a long time. It is very   difficult to manage the  
      above work apart from their regular duties. Hence additional staff may be  provided to  
      take care of additional work load as directed by the Department of Posts  vide S.B.Order
     No. 12/2016 dated 08.11.2016.
1.      Two armed Police protection should be provided at every post office even at overnight if  
required.
3. There may be more chances of presenting fake currency not working   Hence Latest Fake    
   Currency detecting cum counting machines may be supplied, immediately to all the offices.
4. Specific counter hours may be notified to avoid inconvenience to regular Post office
     Customers.
5. Sufficient cash may be supplied to all the sub offices.
6. Request slip for exchange of banknotes may be supplied to all offices.
7. Detailed accounting procedure may please be intimated and supplied to offices.
8. Information boards about exchange of currency notes may be supplied to all the offices for
    Displaying and for information to the public.
9. Control Room may be formed at Divisional Office level to clarify the doubts and to  
    resolve the problems if any while implementing the scheme.
                             Unless above requirements are not provided implementation of the scheme will not be successful and run smoothly. Early action is highly solicited.
                               Thanking you Sir,
