Sub: Transfer/posting of Association functionaries in Chandigarh Zone.
Madam,
Kindly refer to the following communications of the Association made to the administration-
i) Ref. No. 22/meet/12 Dt. 22.08.12,
ii) Ref. No. 27/meet/12 Dt. 10.09.12,
iii) Ref. No. 49/Assn/12 Dt. 28.09.12,
iv) Ref. No. 51/meet/12 Dt. 08.10.12,
v) Ref. No. 64/Assn/12 Dt. 29.10.12,
vi) Ref. No. 72/H/12 Dt. 05.11.12 etc.
2. It is further submitted with due regards that the duly elected Association functionaries of the Chandigarh Unit of this Association has been relieved on 08.01.13 for J&K Commissionerate from their present charge without any prior notice ignoring the orders of the Hon’ble CAT. The Hon’ble CAT had directed that the decision on their transfers is to be taken by the highest departmental authority.
3. It is an accepted fact that it is always the prerogative of the administration to transfer/relieve the officers as per the policy but the way of treating the Association functionaries representing the entire cadre as “stand relieved” and that too without any intimation is highly disappointing. The Association is of the firm opinion that the local administration of Chandigarh has done it intentionally to suppress the Association as well as whole staff-side. It appears that the concerted efforts of the Chandigarh Unit of the Association to take the grievances of the members to the highest level has not been liked by the Chandigarh administration, which has led to such kind of attitude towards the elected Association functionaries.    
4. This type of action of the administration has un-necessarily disturbed the whole cadre and compelled the concerned Association functionaries to knock the doors of the Hon’ble CAT. As a result, the Hon’ble CAT had been kind enough to grant stay against the unjustified transfer/relieving orders dated 08.01.13. On one hand, this Association was appealed by the worthy Member (P&V) in 02.11.12 meeting to ask the members not to go into litigations against the authorities; while on the other hand, the staffside is being forced to approach the legal courts by such high-handed, victimising and suppressing attitude of the administration. Not only it, all the officers once playing active role in the Association activities are being harassed and victimised by transferring them against the policy as a personal pleasure, e.g., S/Sh Gurdeep Singh, Rakesh  Bhargava, D.R.Bhagat, K.S.Nahar, R.S.Multani, Sh Anuj Sharma, Ashok Sharma, Behl, V.S. Sekhon, Pahuja, Dilbag Rai etc. The latest name in this endless series is Sh. Bagga who has been victimised even after the matter of other officers being brought to your kind knowledge and also submitted to the Member (P&V) in person on 02.11.12. It seems that the Chandigarh administration has no faith in the rule of law and only rule to be followed there is the highhandedness & personal pleasure by the administrative authorities. They give no importance to the employee grievance redressal mechanism. Staffside is being suppressed & suppressed despite of knowing that they are already suppressed for decades on account of lack of promotions, pay, working conditions, basic amenities, due facilities and everything. And despite of lacking everything to motivate, this already suppressed staffside  is  continuously giving  the best results by earning indirect taxes for the


government. It is requested that the administration should look into the redressal of staff grievances instead of suppressing them.
5. In view of the above, your goodself is very much requested to intervene into the matter to control the unruly situation in Chandigarh Zone and give justice to the staffside as well as the Association functionaries by withdrawing the transfer orders made against policy. The transfer of the Association functionaries to J&K will totally mar the staff welfare activities of the Association in the Chandigarh Zone.
Thanking you,       
Yours faithfully,


 (RAVI MALIK),
Secretary General.
