Following points were discussed in the meeting:
1. Filling up of GR III posts immediately.

As per the departmental view Postmaster Cadre is a Sun rising cadre with bright future.
The Grade III posts will be immediately created as and when the single eligible official will be posted.
2. Adhoc promotion to GR I officials:
Eligible feeder cadre officials can be posted in the postmaster Gr II on ad hoc basis. When asked about the circular on the issue, issued by the Directorate on filling up of short term vacancies:
It is replied that postmaster cadre officials should approach the concerned CPMG through forum till the approval of the non federated associationexclusively for postmaster cadre officials.
Therefore the CHQ requests all the circle coordinators to form one ad hoc committee in the circle level immediately for asking for bi/four monthly meetings with PMG and at the regional level and CPMG at Circle level.
3. Allowing the postmaster cadre officials to appear for IP and GRB examination:
The Postmaster cadre officials are entered in this cadre on their own willingness as their future promotion will be on the same hierarchy.
