            (1) All National Secretariat Members

            (2) Chief Executives of all Affiliated Organisations

            (3)General Secretaries of all C-O-Cs

Dear Comrades,

            As Assembly elections to five States are scheduled to be held from February 4th to March 11th (including declaration of results) and as February 15th is also poll date in two states , the National Secretariat of Confederation of Central Government Employees & Workers has decided to postpone the proposed ONE DAY STRIKE on February 15th to  MARCH 16th 2017 THURSDAY.

            As 13th March is holiday for Holi in North India and the celebrations are to continue on 14th also, the strike date is fixed as 16th March. There is no change in the 10th January Mass Dharna Programme.

            All those Organisations who had served the strike notice as February 15th shall give a letter to their Head of the Departments intimating the postponement of the strike to 2017 March 16th ,  showing  reasons as mentioned above ,  WITHOUT FAIL.

            Those organisations who have not yet served the Strike Notice should serve the notice before 15th January 2017 WITHOUT FAIL.

            Regarding already announced campaign programme of National Secretariat members , if necessary , dates may be rescheduled by the National Secretariat members in consultation with the concerned C-O-Cs.

            General Secretaries of C-O-Cs are also requested to contact IMMEDIATELY, the concerned National Secretariat members and finalise the date of campaign programme. Intensive campaign should be conducted by all C-O-Cs and Affiliated Organisations in all States, especially in those states where elections are declared, so that employees and general public will become aware of the totally negative attitude of the Central Government towards the legitimate demands of the Central Government Employees and Pensioners.

            The betrayal of the Group of Cabinet Ministers of NDA Govt by not fulfilling their assurance given to NJCA leaders on 30th June 2016, should be exposed.

Secretary General ,

GM FINANCE DIRECTIONS ON PAYMENT OF SEVERANCE AMOUNT FOR SDBS EXIT CASES

LPG customers to now get a discount for on-line payment of LPG refill

LPG customers to now get a discount for on-line payment of LPG refill

Oil Marketing Companies, viz IndianOil, BPCL & HPCL are now offering an upfront discount of Rs 5/- on every LPG refill to all LPG customers who will book and pay for their LPG cylinders online. Customers can make payment through existing online modes i.e net banking, credit & debit cards at the time of web-booking their refills.

Customers will get the discounted amount displayed on their screens – i.e. net amount i.e refill RSP minus (-) incentive amount of Rs.5/- which they need to pay for their refill transactions. The net discounted amount will also be shown on the cash memo accompanying the home-delivery of the LPG cylinder.

Under the aegis of Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas, it the endeavour of all Oil Marketing Companies aim to encourage consumers to increasingly shift to such payment modes through digital platforms to achieve the objective of no-cash or less-cash based transactions. The incentive will encourage more and more LPG consumers to go for cashless mode transactions.

FUTURE OF POST OFFICES

What is CSI?

Core system Integrator or in short CSI is a new software which will replace our legacy meghdoot modules completely. 

Yes all software which we are using now like Meghdoot Point Of Sale, Treasury, Sub Accounts, Accounts and Accountant module will be replaced by

1. CSI Point Of Sale
2. CSI Back Office and
3. SAP

All our day to day transaction will be done using the above three new software only. These new software are developed by TCS and trust me they have done a great job. They have brought everything under one roof.

Not only operational post offices, but administrative offices like divisional offices, regional and circle offices must use CSI SAP module to do their daily works. 

Every thing is well organised in this new software. But the learning curve is a little steep. Counter operations are all bit easy but when it comes to the SAP part, things get really rough.

Our day to day work in sub offices is mostly done using CSI Point of Sale (PoS) and CSI Back Office softwares only.

With the help of these new products which we are going to use soon, our work will greatly reduce.

The duplication of work which we had to do will now completely be gone. Previously, whatever transactions we do at sub offices, were again had to be done at HO using Sub accounts and accounts module, the same transactions are to again accounted for in Circle Offices and again at the directorate level.

This repetition of work will completely be gone. Since all the transactions which take place at Sub offices or even branch offices will be stored in a central location and hence need not fed again in the system.We haven't got the official confirmation but, we think that there will not be any more SO daily accounts, schedules and stuff any more. Just do your work, tally the money and go home. Isn't it great? Yes absolutely.

But the only problem is getting used to the new software. No problem, just keep following our blog and you will be doing good.

Good news: RBI asks banks to ensure 40% notes are supplied to rural areas through rural Banks/Post Offices/ATM

With the note ban impact in rural areas, where mobile phone penetration, especially in terms of making digital payments, is very poor, the public had found it tough to carry on their day-to-day business. (Reuters)

With the note ban impact on larger towns and cities abating fast, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has turned its attention to rural India where the situation is still not back anywhere near normal. Looking to bring relief, the central bank today issued an order saying that sending currency notes to these areas must be speeded up and that the quantity of sums dispatched too must be raised. RBI has put a figure to it too, to ensure there is no confusion. It said that banks must supply at least 40 per cent of currency to rural areas. In a statement, RBI said, “Banks should advise their currency chests to step up issuance of fresh notes to rural branches of RRBs, DCCBs and commercial banks, white Label ATMs in rural areas & post offices in rural areas on priority basis which are considered main rural channels of distribution.”

With the note ban impact in rural areas, where mobile phone penetration, especially in terms of making digital payments, is very poor, the public had found it tough to carry on their day-to-day business as ATMs and banks did not have enough currency notes to distribute – even wages paid to workers were affected as there was no cash available. Also, the fact that Rs 2000 note was the most available note added to problems – it was difficult to make small purchases and get change in return from shops.

However, with queues almost disappearing in larger towns and the RBI in fact increasing the daily withdrawal limit to Rs 4,500, the worst of the demonetisation impact on the public is now almost over.

Proper functioning of CBS Finacle on the outset of 2017
