In this regard, it is further pointed out that at LDH, about 25000 employees are taking the medical facilities. Keeping in view the quantum of Railway Staff at LDH, it requires a big scope to enhance the medical facilities there. URMU, therefore, suggests that the earlier plan of increasing the existing Hospital-Facility be restored instead of converting this existing building into Residential complex. URMU has already apprised this suggestion earlier to CMD/Northern Railway. Now it is for the Railway Administration to give practical shape to this aspect.

Dhirender Vikram Singh are senior, while the other three are junior to them. The Lien of the first two was on BKN-Division, then on Northern Railway, but now on N. W. Railway, but of other three on Delhi Division on Northern Railway. Subsequently some portion of BKN Division was transferred to Delhi Division as a result of formation of NWR and as such the two senior employees also joined Delhi Division, where the other three junior employees are also working. On further scrutiny of this case, there is a vast disparity of their Pay fixation as detailed below:- Name Father Name Present Basic

It is really a case of great injustice with the senior employees, when they all were of the same panel.

This present system involves various activities, which are somewhat difficult to manage by the relatives of the patient. It further causes harassment to them.

At such occasions, the present system of referral matter will prove harmful and dangerous to the patient.

In the olden time, most of Technical staff was illiterate, due to which their attendance was marked by Token System or card- punching. Now the Technical staff are well educated, but even then, they have to adopt the same old system. While in the other Deptts. lower categories of staff had been signing in the Attendance Registers. So, in this way, the educated staff of Tech: Deptts are feeling harassed, degraded and low-dignity in marking their attendance as per old system.

115. 31/16 PCE Construction of Additional Rooms with Type- The issue will be discussed in the meeting. I Railway Quarter situated on the Basant Lane occupied by Railway employees. Recently URMU has come to know that Railway employees residing in the Type-I Railway Quarters on Basant Lane, have received a Demolition Notice to demolish the unauthorized construction done by the residents of these Type-I Railway Quarters. These occupants are entitled for Type-II Railway Quarters, but the Railway Management has totally failed to provide them Type-II Railway accommodations. Delhi Division is having a sanctioned strength of about 44000 employees and Delhi being a metro city, private accommodation is very costly. Moreover, the occupants of these quarters are the Railway employees having their own family members with their old parents. So, it is very difficult to accommodate them in Single/Two Rooms/which is not sufficient. Some of them have made their own temporary arrangement, while the others are facing difficulties and making complaints to provide sufficient space or extra rooms to accommodate their large families. Under these circumstances, URMU demands that some solid/concrete policy be framed to construct additional Rooms. This is in reference to Item No:- 66 of the Draft opening Speech of GM-PNM date 3&4-12-2015. 116. 32/16 CME Data in respect of Target/Out-turn of coaches This is a fact there are vacancies in AMV Workshop.

As per data received from my URMU Branch 2 SSE 169 133 36 President of AMV-Workshop/LKO, which is 3 JE 88 23 65 appended below, it is very astonishing to point out, how the staff is overloaded/over 4 Group-D 220 265 -45 burdened with the workload in view of the extreme shortage of ON-ROLL Workers as Efforts are being made to fill up the vacancies by direct compared to their sanctioned strength.

From the above position, it can be well imagined that how alarming and critical situation is, on the staff working presently and shouldering the higher responsibilities of extra burden of work- load. URMU demands that the vacant posts may be filled up as early as possible to cope with the work-load, also additional posts sanctioned against additional workload.

II. The second points is, that in this workshop, all the infrastructures, i.e. from Transformers to Machinery all are Electronic, working since the last 20-years. But up-till date, no Electronic-Supervisor and Electronic Technician have ever been sanctioned or posted. While in Jagadhri Workshop, there are 3-Electronic Supervisors and 16- Electronic Technicians duly sanctioned who are working since long. Please make provision of these experts in AMV/LKO Shop also. 117. 33/16 Dy.CPO/R Appointment on Compassionate Ground-Cut Dy.CPO/R off percentage for various categories of The details have been called from divisions to examine candidates. and formulate uniform policy regarding CG appointments.

121

Propose reply of the PNM Meeting with URMU at GM’s Level to be held on 12th & 13th May, 2016

has no power to frame the rules of Railway Policy matters. Moreover, there is a provision laid down by the Railway Board regarding compassionate Ground Appointment. Therefore, such type of circulars can’t be issued & implemented by DRM. It is also pointed out that like other Divisions C/G appointment may be arranged by Delhi Division. Qualification laid down for Group-C and D, may continue to be implemented in the same manner. URMU, therefore, desires that the circular issued by Delhi Division to category “J” may be cancelled. 118. 34/16 SPO/M&E Assignment of Seniority in the case of Sh. Comments have been called for from Delhi division. Ajit Singh Tech-II/SBA under SSE/P/SIR (URMU Minutes of 67th. PNM Item No:- 29/63 of UMB Division).

Ajit Singh it is very astonishing to point out that the said employee who had been appointed as PED-III on 05-08-1988, while the others two were the Khalasis, who had been thereafter made senior to Sh. Ajit Singh. This fudging created by UMB-Division is not understood, keeping in view the following Documents of UMB-Division. Comparative Statement of UMB-Division.

Note:- From this comparative statement, it is clear, that Sh. Ajit Singh has been neglected/over-looked and the Junior Employees made senior by promoting them as SBA-III, SBA-II & SBA-I. If Sh. Ajit Singh had been declared surplus, even in that case, his seniority cannot be ignored. As per rule, if surplus staff is offered alternative job, and subsequently absorbed, his seniority will be assigned from his date of appointment and the initial grade.

(II) Giving another instance of DPO/UMB vide his letter No:- 940-E/105/Elect/G/UMB/P-3 dated 02-09-2003, in which the result of Trade Test of PED-II has been declared and Sh. Ajit Singh shown “Pass”. Also it is very painful to see the seniority list issued by DPO/UMB vide his L/No:- 847- E/05/SEN/Elect-G/UMB/P-3 dated 15-11- 2011 in which both the juniors have superseded to Ajit Singh at S. No:- 1&2 while the senior placed at S. No:- 11 at the bottom of the seniority list. He has been dragged down, which is not tolerable. URMU therefore demands that his seniority may

dated 18-05-2012. In terms of the Railway Boards letter as referred to above, it was agreed to provide Rest Rooms at wayside Stations in the phased manner and further advised to identify the stations where resting facilities are required to be provided. In this regard, it is reiterated that Northern Railway has already indentified 254-Stations of wayside, where these rest rooms are to be constructed for the Safety-Staff and intimated to the Railway Board. No further progress in this direction has yet been observed. Since this matter is lingering on for about more than four years, therefore, URMU insists upon GM-Northern Railway to explore and resolve the possibilities of locating the sites and to start their construction at 254 places already suggested. This work is required to be taken in hand on “Top-Priority-Basis”. 122. 38/16 CEE Creation of Non-Gazetted Posts for The issue will be discussed in the meeting. maintenance of Electric Locos, ELS/SRE, Khanalampura.

Besides this, GM/Northern Railway has decided that all field units should find their own matching surrender. This is however an objectionable decision for the union due to the fact that the Railway Working is increasing and number of trains are also increasing day by day, then how the above mentioned posts can be created by way of matching surrender? On one side Elect. Loco Shed will start functioning, while on the other side, the Deptts affected by matching surrender will be doomed due to shortage of staff. GM/northern railway may kindly reconsider this fact with a cool-mind, so that the Working of UMB-Division may not hamper any longer. 123. 39/16 CMD Medical Facilities for the staff working at CMD Road side stations.

The subject matter has come to notice of URMU that the promotional avenues of the SSE & JEs of the Printing Presses on Northern Railway are very bleak. In order to provide them some benefits for further advancement towards Gazetted cadre, such as stores-officers, it is necessary to merge the cadres of SSEs & JEs, because, at present, there is no Channel of promotion of this category. Where as in other Deptts: whenever any selection is conducted in Mech: Deptt:, candidates of all the Deptts: are called for selection. In Optg: Deptt: supervisors from other Deptts are also called for selection, who are eligible for AOM. Then why the Stores Deptt:, who is the Incharge of the Printing Presses is not merging their staff in their Stores Depots for the better prospects of the Printing Press Technical Supervisory Staff?

The subject matter regarding promotion from GR-III/Tech to GR-II/Tech of DSL Shed had been lingering on in the court for 16 years.

Propose reply of the PNM Meeting with URMU at GM’s Level to be held on 12th & 13th May, 2016

verification of occupancy certificate issued by TS of Rajdhani/Shatabdi/Duronto train by the Division. This job had since long been doing single handedly by T.S. Now this procedure has been made so lengthy and its scope of work has been widened many folds. Perhaps, it will not be possible to be complied with, due to the following reasons. (i) Due to the shortage of staff (ii) Staff working at present is already over- burdened (iii) The new procedure will require photo- stating of extra copies to be distributed. In view of all these hurdles, it will perhaps be not possible to ensure its compliance properly at this stage, therefore, URMU, is of the opinion that the old system should continue for the time being till the hurdles are captured. So the latest directives may be either cancelled or kept pending. 142. 58/16 SPO/M&E Sanction for the supplementary Bill of Rs. SPO/M&E 34311 in favour of Sh.
