Madam,

            I would like to refer to the above and state that, as desired by you in the discussion held between us in your chamber on 9^th August 2016, this Association vide its letter No:- AICAEA/HQ/A-3/CBEC/2016/998 dated: 24.11.2016 had submitted the list of the items for discussion in the formal meeting you had assured to  convene.

            But it is nearly five months, we have not received any favourable response from your office.

            It may not be out of place to record here that, the representatives of this Association when tried to ascertain the status of the letters it had sent requesting you to convene the meeting, the representatives of your administration had categorically stated to our representative that, no meeting shall be fixed with the Association and the administration shall ensure it.

            Not only this, it has been reported by some of our members through their respective Branches and units that, when they personally met the officers of your administration they told that, if they find after verification that, they (employees) had requested to Association for persuing their cases, then administration shall not settle their grievances at any cost. We have subsequently noted from the orders issued by your administration that the reporting made by our member are true.

            Further, it has also been observed that, your administration does not appreciate that the authors of the letters of the Association are not an individual but an authorized signatory of the Association. They are passing loose and derogatory remarks on the signatory of the letter in public and creating obstructions into the process of settlement of his personal issues concerning with your office.

           

            We hope, you will definitely agree that, the activities of the persons running your administration are not only of doubtful integrity but they are also deliberately attempting to tarnish the image of head of the department.

            We therefore, request you to kindly inquire into the facts discussed in this letter and take appropriate action to set your administration in order.

            This Association is however, keeps its total confidence on your esteemed self and in pursuance of the same, requests you to kindly convene a meeting with the National Executive members of this Association at your earliest convenience. Since the situation has changed during the last few months, we are submitting a slightly amended agenda items for discussion in the proposed meeting.

            We also hope, you will not kindly ignore this request letter so that the resentment among the employees do not precipitate further and employees at different stations do not move towards holding of protest demonstrations which has been proposed to be held on 9^th February, 2017.

Thanking you

Yours Sincerely,

Enclo:- as above
