National federation of postal employees published a letter regarding strike in their website .The letter is given below

STRIKE TO SURVIVE
    The entirety of five lakhs Postal and RMS Employees of INDIA POST will be on  indefinite strike from 13th July 2010, as per the call given by the Joint  Council of Action comprising of National Federation of Postal Employees,  Federation of National Postal Organisations and the Gramin Dak  Sevaks Unions.
Hectic preparations are going on in every circle and there will be total strike  all over India. Functioning of the INDIA POST will be completely paralysed

    We are compelled to resort to indefinite strike action as we have been pushed to  the wall. The attitude of the Government and the Postal Board is totally  negative. All negotiating fourms are defunct for  the last many years  .Negotiation takes place only when strike notice is served. No formal meetings,
No JCM Departmental Council Meetings, No consultation with unions on important  issues affecting the employees. It seems that the Postal Administration is not  ready to accept the reality that in a democratic setup issues can be resolved  only through negotiations with all stakeholders including the unions.

    About one lakh posts has been abolished during the last ten years in the name  of downsizing .Employees are reeling under the pressure of excess workload. The  shortage of staff has adversely affected the efficiency of the INDIA POST.  Thousands of posts in all cadres are lying vacant. Closure of officers, large  scale outsourcing ,downgradation  of EDSOs , violation of RMS agreement ,  harassment of staff in Project Arrow Offices , abnormal delay in cadre  restructuring , negative and inhumane attitude towards Gramin Dak Sevaks, denial  of pay parity to MMS Drivers , non-grant of revised wages to Casual Labourers ,  anomalies in MACP Scheme, total neglect towards the system Administrators,  unilateral decentralization of RPLI/PLI work, denial of merger of Group –C  Accounts cadre in DOP & DOT-all these long pending issues are agitating the  minds of the employees and resentment is mounting day by day.



The indefinite strike from July 13th is to protect  the INDIA POST and also to
protect  the interest of its five lakhs workforce. Downsizing, outsourcing,
privatization, closure of office are against the interest of the INDIA POST.
Only workers can protect the legacy of INDIA POST. Battle line is drawn and it
is upto the Government and Postal Board to decide whether there should be an
indefinite strike or not. The ball is in their court .Let us unite together with
determination and make the strike a tremendous success. Let the five lakhs
Postal and  RMS employees all over the India standup and declare in one voice –
we shall fight untidily, come what may.  We are confident that success will be
ours.



Remember UNITY IN ACTION is    our watch word
