Dear Comrades,
Against the unilateral orders of the Chennai City
Regional Administration, imposing Single beat System in Chennai GPO with
drastic reduction in Postmen Strength, the entire Postmen staff of Chennai GPO
went on strike from 14.08.2013. After several round of negotiations held with
PMG Chennai City Region by the Circle and Divisional leaders of all the Unions
(JCA), the strike was withdrawn on
16.08.2013 . Demand of the JCA regarding total number of single beats and also
the number of Postmen to be engaged exclusively for Speed Post delivery was
accepted by the administration.
NFPE congratulates all the Postmen staff of Chennai
GPO for their total unity during the struggle and also the Circle/Divisional
unions for their effective role and continuous efforts taken for settlement.
