Extra Departmental Employees Union. The convention once again congratulates the
leaders, members and well wishers of AIPEDEU for the unprecedented historic
success of the seven days indefinite strike on 16-22 October 2013. The strikes
and struggles during last year have strengthened and widened the unity of the
GDS fraternity.
In the wake
of the resounding success of the seven day indefinite strike the Govt. of India
granted Rs. 3500/- bonus to GDS employees at par with departmental employees.
Rastriya Swastya Bhema Yojana(RSBY) scheme is going to implement within short
period.

indifference of the Govt. towards the long pending burning issues concerning

It is known
fact that the GDS created revenue to the Department of posts by implementing
NREGA, SSP, PLI, RPLI and various schemes introduced by the Department while
bearing the unbearable burden of all round exploitation through denial of their
basic and justified rights. If all type of work done by GDS has to be taken
into workload, the BOs will be departmentalized with more than 8 hours work.
The
convention calls upon the GDS fraternity to raise their voice unitedly against
indifference and injustice and prepare for intensifying the countrywide
struggle in the days to come.
The
convention decided to hold five days relay hunger fast in the circle head
quarters on 20-24 January, 2014.
If our
demands are not settled after this programme, serious trade union action will
be launched in appropriate time. The convention appeals to the entire GDS of
the department of posts to take part in the programme with strong determination
and thundering the message to the Govt.
