Dear friends and comrades,
You are all aware that we had a meeting with the
representatives of Sh. Ravi Malik at Patna on 6.10.18. Shri. Pranave Shekar from Delhi and Shri.
Sanjay Mishra and Shri. Sailender of Bihar spoke to us on behalf of Sh. Ravi
Malik.
During the said meeting our side had stated that a combined
convention could be held under the following conditions:
1) Elections to the new body be
based on DDO Certificate strength and
2) Only elected representatives of
units (elected within the Constitutionally allowed period of 2 years and 3
months prior to the Convention) to exercise the franchise.
The above
conditions were insisted because in respect of certain units like Mumbai and
Kolkatta a dispute had been raised regarding who were the office bearers of the
unit. Unless the DDO Certificate basis
could be adopted, the dispute cannot be solved.
Further if units do not have internal democratic functioning and have an
elected body within the stipulated period, then any one could come to the
Convention and demand voting rights.
We had consciously adopted the DDO based voting pattern
because only that is in alignment with the CCS (RSA) Rules and deviating from that principle had ruined the core
of the Association at the grass root level.
After agreeing on these parameters, the representatives of
Sh. Ravi Malik left saying that they will intimate the opinion from the other
side. Subsequently they said that the
conditions were not acceptable for Sh. Ravi Malik. Thereafter Sh. Ravi Malik issued minutes of
his meeting at Lucknow wherein it was mentioned that the said committee had
been formed to annihilate the faction led by R. Manimohan. So the very initiative of discussion had been
dumped by the other side.
However, after our Surat meeting of the AIEC, I had
contacted some of the office bearers of the units yet to join us and requested
them to find out modalities for a common convention.
Subsequent messages from the other side indicated that
though everyone on that side wanted a common convention, Sh. Ravi Malik alone
was not ready.
The situation after the issue of letter dated 12.02.2019 by
the Board is changed and clear. It has
specified that the ACs cannot continue as office bearers of this Association
because no such amendment has been accepted by the GOI.
In this scenario, since our amendment to make the voting
rights linked to DDO certificates also has not been accepted by the GOI, we
feel that we also need not insist upon that.
However, wherever there is more than one claimant to
represent any unit, the Convention will have to go by the decision of the
majority opinion of the said unit for which alone DDO Certificates may have to
be relied upon.
Otherwise, the elected office bearer/delegate of a unit (within
the stipulated period) could be allowed to exercise franchise as per the
provisions in vogue before May 2017.
We hope if this is acceptable to all units, they can come
to Kolkatta for the Convention scheduled for 10th and 11th
of AUGUST 2019.
We can honour our former office bearers, Sh. Chandramouli, Sh.
Ravi Mali, and Sh. Venkatesh in the inaugural session. The knowledge of Sh.
Chandramouli and Sh. Ravi Malik on service matters could be utilized by the
Association by making them part of an
Advisiory Committee.
Units accepting the above proposals for unity to be
achieved, may kindly confirm their participation in the Convention by sending
us their decision.
Fraternally yours,
R. Manimohan
Feel pity that RS. 900 being deducted from salary every year for all officers with no benefit what so ever. When we were one we could not prove our presence in the cbic for any notable achievement for the cadre, and when we are divided cadres are most sufferers.
ReplyDeleteTry to prove to achieve genuine demands from the board otherwise there is no need of association whether United or divided.
