Sub: Revision of Policy for “Compassionate Appointment” in BARC reg: 

Respected Sir,

            With reference to the discussion held with you on 17^th July we would like to invite your kind attention to the following.

             Though, a lot of revision took place in the last decade regarding procedures, posts and appointments in BARC, both in Administration and Technical sides, we still follow the same policy for the appointment of a person on compassionate ground.  In post 6^th Pay commission era, the Group D posts are merged with Group C. Even though the children and spouses of most of BARC employees are well qualified but at present we are only offering work assistant post on compassionate appointment. In case of sudden demise of the guardian of the family, they are in deep distress. The most deserving families are considered for compassionate appointment by the Department to their family members either spouse or children. We feel that the policy of Compassionate appointment also needs a timely revision.

            Hence, we request your good officers that, if the applicants are eligible, they may please be considered for appointment in any post within Group C, i.e. from Level 1 to Level 5 according to their qualification.

        This is for your kind consideration and for further action.

Thanking you,

                                                                                                Yours Faithfully

Submission of cast validity certificate employees belonging to Maharashtra State. Ref: our earlier letter No.AU/16//10/10/91/63 dated 1/9/2010.

The Director,

BARC.

Sub: Submission of cast validity certificate employees belonging to Maharashtra State.

Ref: our earlier letter No.AU/16//10/10/91/63 dated 1/9/2010.

Sir,

With reference to the above subject we may allow to invite your kind attention to the following. We write this letter in continuation to our earlier letter dated 1^st September 2010 addressed to the controller, BARC in which we have stated as follows.

As per guideline containing in the DOPT OM dated 16/3/1999 where in it has been directed that SC/ST candidate should be appointed provisionally on the basis of whatever prima-facie evidence they are able to produce in support of their claim belonging to SC/ST and such claim to be verified that is through the District Magistrate etc.

 After obtaining the ST certificate the same may be subjected for verification by sending to the concern District authority viz. District collector, Deputy Commissioner, District  Magistrate for confirmation.

Para No 40 of DOPT OM No.36011/6/2010/Estt.(RES) Dt.25/6/2010 where in it has been directed verification of cast certificate of SC/ST/OBC employees is required to be considered by issuing authorities as indicated there in.

Further the subject was discussed with the then Director BARC on 2^nd May 2011  and he has opined   that “ Verification of Cast Certificate and validity by the scrutiny committee are two different issues and that the verification is mandatory and validation is required in case of any dispute. However if necessary a reference may be made to DOPT through DAE”.

Seven  years  later it   has been  sent a reference  to CAO(P) BARC  to CAO(A), BARC  on 17^th August 2018  seeking the clarification whether any reference is sent to DAE regarding the exact procedure to be followed for verification of cast certificate in respect of SC/ST/OBC belonging to Maharashtra state and appointed in Govt. Service in BARC. If so the decision conveyed by DAE in this regard may be intimated to the undersigned (CAO (P)) immediately.

After passing 11 months no replay is received from  CAO(A) about the status of reference to DAE .In spite of  all the  Establishments in BARC has directed to  issue letters to submit validity  of cast certificate stating “clause 4(2) of Maharashtra Sheduled Cast,Sheduled Tribe,De-notified Tribes(Vimukta Jatis), Nomadic Tribe, Other Backward Classes and Special Backward Catogaries (Regulation of issuance &verification) the Cast certificate 2000 dated 23^rd May 2001, the cast certificate issued by the competent authorities shall be valid only subject to the verification and grand of validity certificate by the scrutiny committee.”

It is brought to your notice that the Cast Scrutiny committee has given clarification that “The employees on establishment of Central Governmental Department, it is not necessary to verification of Cast certificate from the Scrutiny committee. The Order is only for the   employees posted in the state of Maharashtra and Semi Government.( O/W No.D.C.S.C.No2/Dhule/service cast/747/2014-15 dated 9/4/2014)

Now all the establishments are started issuing letter to the individual employees asking them to submit the cast validity certificate within stipulated time. It is also warned non- submission of validity certificate within the time limit, action will be initiated against such employees.

In this regard this Union emphasis that BARC employees are governed by the orders issued by the DOPT and endorsed by DAE. There no Orders issued by either DOPT or DAE to sending cast certificate to the scrutiny committee constituted by the Maharashtra State Government. The senior employees are only submitted the cast certificate issued by the District Magistrate/Commissioners/Collectors and they are under severe stress because of this administrative action. It will not be out of place to mention all these employees are completed the process of verification by the issuing authority.

It is therefore request you to instruct the administration to restrain from such action and only comply the DOPT/DAE orders on the subject.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,

(A.Sreedharan)

AEES No.6,

Anushaktinagar.

Sub: Seeking appointment for discussing the grievances of parents.

Sir,

This Union has received representation from parents of school No.6 and it required an urgent attention from your end. We list out few of the grievances brought by the parents for your reference.                          

1.      On 09.07.2019 two students of 1^st standard, section-N, were physically punished by the mathematics teacher. One of the students was slapped so badly that slapping marks were clearly visible on his cheeks even after the school hours. Parents of the affected children have already brought this matter of humiliation and great concern in the notice of the Principal. Please take action to ensure that these kinds of severe punishments, which can harm the children permanently. Also note that the children who witnessed these incidents have become so scared of attending classes now.

2.      On 06.07.19, it was noticed that some packets of refreshments provided to kids during the science exhibition were found to be passed the expiry date. This is a case of utter negligence and carelessness of the management towards children’s health. It came as a shocking as similar incident was already reported from parents of AECS-3 a few days ago.

3.      Details of Safety & School Advisory committees like list of members and their contact details should be displayed in the notice board of school permanently. Minutes of meeting of the aforementioned committees should be displayed in the notice board.

4.      It was observed that many water filters / coolers provided in the school are defunct and children have to go to other floors to drink water. The washrooms are not kept clean as it is required.

5.      Please take action to solve shortage of teachers in the school. It has been observed that shortage of teachers has left many classes unattended / combined which affects the learning process  badly

6.      School calendar, time table and I.D cards are not yet distributed to students even after the academic session has progressed to fourth month.

7.      Please ensure that weight of the school bag be within the stipulated limit set by the CBSE. This can be ensured by employing a proper time table.

It is therefore request you to arrange a meeting with this union along with parent representatives.

Thanking you
