Staff Associations Meeting with Chief Commissioner
As
per the direction of Chairperson Cadre Controlling Authority, Mumbai zone
convened a meeting with representatives of Recognized staff Associations, the
communications dated 24th May, 2017 as addressed to us, received on
the same day. Accordingly the delegation of CESA, Mumbai attended the meeting
on 30th May, 2017 at 04:00 PM. The splinter group also attended the
meeting without any invitation. When the meeting was started they raise the objections that we should not
be allowed to represent. Chief Commissioner expressed his displeasure and said
that the dispute within yourself be sorted out at outside and I will not
interfere and only we will be concerned about the issues to be redressed at our end.
We
were maintaining a stoic silence about the splinter group commotion in the beginning.
Then, the president of CESA, Mumbai expressed that all the schedules of our
programmes already informed to our members as well as to the administration.
Although we have been promoted but not taken the charge functionally, as soon
as we take the functional post of the Assistant Commissioner, we will relinquish
the post and in our place as decided by the managing committee other office
bearers will represent CESA, Mumbai. Being a Chief Office Bearer of CESA,
Mumbai I brought to the notice of Chief Commissioner 30th May,
Indian Express News paper, the article appeared in page no. 12 about the topper
scam of Bihar. It is known to everybody, how the Bihar Board (BSEB) manipulated
and made their student in the limelight that they are the topper without any
caliber. When the certificate was put to scrutiny the entire phase of
manipulation are exposed without appearing, impersonation, other unethical
methods papers are made and certificates were issued that they are the toppers only the certificates are obtained on crook methods
Superintendents Association is not a labour union,Industrial union,It is a Staff welfare association,It heads range ,circle formation always maintained decency,decorum,and discipline so that junior officer will follow. We never adopt hooliganism and condemn if any office bearer possess the said quality for self promotion.

Similarly the certificate on which this splinter group are claiming their
existence and impersonating as CESA, Mumbai by few motivated, perverted, self
seekers individuals with all short of manipulations like Topper Scam of Bihar
the certificate of the Election Officers is not only fake but also baseless and
doctored and engineered and fabricated one. Due to this impersonation we have
made slight change in our letter head and we identify ourselves by
incorporating name and designation of Secretary General/ President of AIACEGEO.
Let them identify themselves with whom they belong of AIACEGEO and recognize themselves
as authorized one then they may be allowed to represent the Superintendents of
Mumbai in the banner of CESA, Mumbai.
The
issue raised by us point by point is highly appreciated by Chief Commissioner and promised
that they will do their best. Thereafter, the meeting was moved on very
smoothly. CESA, Mumbai lastly appreciate the efforts and vision of Chief
Commissioner and his administration, not allowed any officers in any Cadre as
excess and planned the No. of Commissionerates and formations accordingly so
that all the field staff have been accommodated in Mumbai Zone.
Meeting was
concluded with a condolence meeting of Late V. R. Ghorpade.
The
latest representations are as under:-

dt. 24.05.2017.
Respected Sir,
Please
refer to above referred letter. CESA Mumbai is thankful to your goodself to
continue with interaction with staff Association and holding JCM and inviting
us for the meeting is an step towards the healthy administration.
CESA
sponsor the following points for discussion in the JCM :
1.
Database like zone II in respect of all
officers, personnel, be prepared
2.
Digitalization
of the records of confidential sections of Cadre Controlling Authority.
3.
New
formations/Commissionerates should be within the jurisdiction
4.
Disposal
of vigilance cases
5.
Disposal
of all medical claims /LTC etc. in a time bound manner i.e. before rolling out of GST.
6.
Officers
on deputations/extended/loan basis be repatriated from DRI/DGCEI etc. and no
extension be granted to them.
7.
As
in the ensuing GST reorganization of the Customs preventive is in the stage of
proposals as per the study report, the Customs work is being carried out by the
Central Excise officers, be manned by Customs
Preventive officers, hence the staff
position may be enhanced and the criteria of present transfer and posting
policy to M & P after due deliberations will be formed.
8.
The
amendment of the transfer and posting policy will be informed after
deliberations in the AGM which is scheduled on the 9th June 2017.
9.
Improvement
of infrastructure – no formation and office have any adhoc arrangement.
10.
Provisions
for Gym, place for Yoga and recreation, as per the new policy
announced by the Hon’ble PM to keep the officers fit and motivated.
11.
Land in our possession be safeguarded
otherwise in the tsunami of GST our file will be misplaced. The plots at Kharghar, Boisar, Thane, be
developed. The renovations carried out
on various office/officers quarters should continue with the same speed and
without any break.
12.
Deployment
of the staff and rotations after merging of the various Commissionerates in the
new formations should not be carried out in haste. Options called for are premature as the
jurisdictions and offices are not specified by issuance of any Trade notice or
circulars. Hence the present exercise is
hypothetical. The request options
pending with the administration be called for.
Officers should be posted near to their residence, Cases on
compassionate ground be considered.
Officers due for retirement, their request may be acceded.
Lastly on behalf of CESA Mumbai, we place it on record, that because of
your vision as well as concern towards all the Staff members, no officer found
excess and accommodated as created number of Commissionerates on the basis of
revenue as well as number of units on conservative measures.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
A.K.Sasmal
General Secretary

On being demand of several officers the representation of CESA
Mumbai was made which is as under:-
CESA/
41/2017
Date:

Hon’ble Chief
Commissioner,
Customs Mumbai Zone,
Mumbai
Shri S. C. Varshney,
Hon’ble Chief
Commissioner,
Central Excise Zone I
& II,
Mumbai Zone
Respected
Sir,
Sub: - Internal
Rotation of Assistant Commissioners within Mumbai Central Excise and Customs
Zone – reg.
Kind
attention is invited towards weekly letter of Honorable Chairman CBEC, dated 26.05.2017,
placed on the site of CBEC (copy enclosed). In the said letter in Para 2, it is
stated that AGT orders of JC/ADC and posting orders of promoted Group ‘A’ is
issued and rotation orders to be issued.
Sir, We
are concerned about the Central Excise officers who are promoted in the last
restructuring and completed their two years tenure in Central Excise, Central
Excise and Customs are eligible for rotations as per the internal prevailing
transfer posting practise of Mumbai Central Excise and Customs Zone.
The cut off date may be taken for
consideration Order to Order so that maximum officers can be covered.
Special care may be taken in respect of
the officers posted in CCO, Appeals, Settlement Commission, Adjudications,
CESTAT, etc.
Deputy Commissioners who have completed
their two years in Central Excise may be rotated. But as far as the Direct
Group ‘A’ officers are concerned, as they are just entering the service and
completed technically two years in Central Excise and Service Tax may be
retained, as they have a very long career, in Central Excise or ensuing GST
Commissionerates.
Officers those who are due for
superannuation upto June, 2018 may not be considered for rotation.
Other promotee officers who have
completed their tenure in Central Excise, Service Tax and Customs may be
rotated.
In the pretext of non-training on GST
officer of Customs in enmass may not be retained in Customs. As all the
officers are qualified and well conversant with the taxation laws, GST is non a
rocket science which they cannot cope up. Hence, non-training or training on
GST should not be an hindrance for smooth rotations.
Officers
on compassionate grounds as well as self sickness may be considered.
There
was strong resentment in the last year AGT order. CESA, Mumbai hope that the
same should not be repeated and the AGT will be fair and transparent one.
Thanking
you,
Yours faithfully,
A.K.Sasmal
General Secretary

Ananya Ray, Hon’ble Member(Customs) incharge of Mumbai Zone for
kind information with a request to ensure that the fairness should be prevailed
and discrimination towards Central Excise Promotee officers may not be
encouraged.
