CIRCULAR 01/2017                                                        Date:  20.06.2017 Dear friends and Comrades,              It is almost one month since the 12th Convention at Chennai had elected the new AIB.  I take this opportunity to greet each one of you, be it a unit, an Office bearer or a member of this All India Association.               This circular has been waiting only for the dust to settle down.  A delegation on behalf of the new AIB had met with the Member (Admn) Shri. S. Ramesh on 08.06.2017 and with the Chairperson Smt. Vanaja N. Sarna on 09.06.2017.  We also met with the ADGHRD, Shri. Balesh Kumar and discussed regarding stagnation and re-organisation related issues.  All the three officials have given us a patient hearing.   The issues in brief and the outcome of the said meetings have been narrated in our blog : ‘Superintendents of CBITC’- http://supdtsofcbitc.blogspot.in/ under the heading ‘Hello Comrades’.              Our new body is born out of two fundamental issues: 1)      When there is a separate Association to cater to the interests of Promotee Gr A Officers in Central Excise being heard by the Govt, and when we are also part of the JAC comprised of that organisation also and when the RSA Rules also do not provide for continuance of Supdts on promotion in this Association, no AC can continue as member or be an office bearer in our Association. 2)      This Association has to be run democratically at the AIB level and at local level on the basis of elections based on subscribed membership strength as per the periodicity fixed by the Constitution.           Without grass root involvement, simply sending letters to the authorities will not yield results.  There is a great resentment of the cadre at the grass roots which requires to be properly channelized for the betterment of the cadre and department.  Personal and parochial considerations shall not be allowed to defeat these legitimate aspirations of the membership. In the above light, we are in the process of reviving most of the units which have become non-functional due to no elections being conducted in such places for several years now.           Towards this consolidation process, we seek the support of all units and members throughout India.  We request that elections may be conducted in all units, if not conducted in the past 2 years and the report of such results may kindly be forwarded to me in the address given at the top.  All Units are requested to collect the DDO certificates and send the same to my address, so that renewal of recognition would be our next immediate necessity.  Fraternally yours, R. Manimohan To All members through the Unit Office bearers
