Further to our recent communications on the above , we are constrained to submit that many of our units have expressed their resentment over the attitude and approach of the Zonal level Managements who are set to disturb the years long tested practice while posting the new recruits in clerical cadre. We are also deeply concerned over the helpless response from HRM, Head Office in dealing with our complaints.

World over, the workers will celebrate the 140th Anniversary of May Day on the 1st May, 2026.  On this occasion, we not only recall the brutal massacre of workers at the Haymarket Square in Chicago, but also the resolve of the working class to face these attacks. When workers were marching in procession with white flags demanding peace, they were fired and with blood shed by them, white flags became red.
