Sub: -  Implementation of CSI roll out in Karnataka Circe – regarding.

Sir,
            It is learnt that the Department is proposing to implement CSI roll out in a few divisions in Karnataka Circle before December 2016. In this connection I would like to intimate that the CSI Pilot roll out in Mysore division is not working smoothly as several problems are yet to be set right.

            Around 15 problems are still existing in Mysore division which are furnished below for your kind notice.

1.    POS-pin code directory not updated resulting in delay.
2.    Speed Post amount not rounded off to rupee in bulk booking.
3.    Details of declaration every time is to fed in bulk foreign article.
4.    Post box updation not happening immediately and amount not included in pod cash.
5.    Redirected emos not allowed to issue to postman.
6.    Data not recd for BPCODs.
7.    Cancelled emos also comes for payment.
8.    Sale of some new stamps not happening in SAP.
9.    Not allow to rebook proof of delivery of speed articles booked by high court New Delhi for which amount for rebooking pod collected in advance while booking speed post articles.
10.  IVPS-not allows to close single bag to redirected/Rtd to sender regd articles, many bags with 2/3 articles to be closed.
11.  Cod redirection not provided.
12.  dpms-fetching not happening RMS not switched on to CSI.
13.  PLI collection inclusion automatically not happening. Done thr’o voucher posting.
14.  Tracking of articles not happening in India post web
15.  In addition to these many problems not resolved in SAP which is a hard nut to crack which designed for software professionals.

            Since the CSI pilot roll out in Mysore division is not working satisfactorily, the business in the division has also come down resulting in loss of revenue to the department.

            I earnestly request you not to implement the project in other divisions till such time all the issues are set right in Mysore division. The implementation of the roll out may kindly be deferred in the interest of department and staff. We have no objection for implementing the project once all the problems noticed are set right. A line in reply on the nature of action taken may kindly be intimated.

With regards
Yours faithfully,

Sub:   Cut in interest rate for small savings schemes.

Respected Sir,

            As you  are aware that the Government of India, Ministry of Fiancé, Department of Economic Affairs (Budget Division) vide F.No.1/04/2016-NSII dated 18th March -2016 has  issued orders to cut the interest rates for Small  Savings Schemes which  will adversely affect the  poor people and customers in  Post Offices.

            Already due to CBS related problems thousands and thousands customers have closed their accounts in Post Offices. Further this cut in small savings schemes like, NSC, KVP, PPF,MIS, Sr. Citizen Savings Schemes and Sukanya Samriddhi Yojna will force them to invest their money in some other schemes.

            It is therefore requested to kindly utilize your good office and convince the Finance Ministry to exempt Small Savings Schemes in Post Offices from interest cut to protect interests of common man.

            With regards,

                        Yours faithfully,


(R.N. Parashar)
