REF: LTC/6/2017 Dt:13/02/2017
The Chairman
Department of Posts
Dak Bhavan
New Delhi 110 001.
Sir,
Sub: Request for one-time relaxation to the Postal Employees
who have availed LTC80 by Air - Reg.
Ref: - Agenda No.III of the Standing Committee meeting of
National Council (JCM) held on 25.10.2016.
My Federation is the constraint to write this letter. It is learnt that the SSPO/SSRM/SP/SRM
and Managers, MMS directed the officials to credit the entire Sanctioned/settled claim amount
with penal interest @ 10.7% of LTC claims availed several months before to Andaman and Nicobar
Island by purchasing ticket from the unauthorized agents, without knowing the rule. This issue
was discussed in length with the Secretary, DOP&T on 25.10.2016 by the staff side. Further, during
the meeting, the staff side mentioned that Ministry of Defence, with the approval of Hon’ble Defence
Minister, had forwarded a proposal to DOPT seeking one-time relaxation in this case. The Secretary,
DOP&T also informed that the entire issue is under consideration by the DOPT.
To our dismay it is noticed that Officers of our Department as said in the previous para, have
started the recovery. My Federation request the Chairman, Postal Board to take up the issue with
the DOP&T with the concurrence of our Honourable Minister as in the case of Defence, seeking
one-time relaxation. Until then necessary instruction may kindly be issued to all concerned not to
recover the amount from the officials who have availed LTC-80 by purchasing tickets from
unauthorised agents.
Thanking you,
Yours Sincerely,
(D. Theagarajan)
Secretary General
