The Superintendent of Post offices
Keonjhar Division
Keonjhargarh-758001
Sub: Irregular occupation of staff
quarter for office purpose.
Sir
It
is very much shocking to find that Divisional Administration has given
permission to occupy one of the Four Type-111 quarters earmarked as Post-quarter
of Postmaster located inside Keonjhargarh HO campus for functioning of two Sub
Divisional offices and keeping PLI/RPLI records etc., damaging its original
structure without permission of competent authority.
It
is needless to mention that the staff quarters have been built for the staying
of staff, which should not be utilized normally for other purposes overlooking
the welfare of staff members. If it is felt that the available space inside the
HO building is not adequate to accommodate the Divisional and Sub Divisional
offices, then alternate arrangement could have been made either by constructing
vertical expansion of the building or hiring rented building. As per Rule,
accommodation constructed to serve as quarters should not be diverted to any
other use without previous sanction of Director General.
The
cycle stands constructed for the welfare of the staff is now being used for
store and other is being used for Gen sets and staffs are keeping their
vehicles under the open sky all over the year.
If
the present incumbent, the officiating Postmaster is not availing the post-quarter,
the same could have been allotted to some other intended eligible staff as per
the provision of Rules by suspending the post-quarter for the time being. As
you know, scarcity of residential accommodation in Keonjhar town is very acute
and the staff is wandering for the same without having a staff quarter for
themselves. In this situation the post-quarter could have been allotted to them
under staff welfare measure. But without doing so, the post-quarters has been
mal-utilized for other purpose.
The
decision for functioning of office in the building of staff colony overlooking
the inconvenience of the occupants is totally deplorable. There is apprehension
of braking the peace atmosphere, privacy and free movement of family members
staying in adjacent quarters, if Sub Divisional offices go on functioning
inside the residential area which is against the welfare of staff.
Therefore, this union is strongly protest such
unilateral decision of the Administration and urged upon to stop the act of
misutilizing post-quarter of Postmaster from any other use and same may be
allotted to other needy officials till the joining of regular incumbent
entitled to the post-quarter. It is further requested that the balcony of the
quarter (original structure) which has been broken unauthorized for
constructing stairs for new arrangement may be restored immediately.
Thanking
you.
