Letter to DG - AIR

No. ADP3/DG: AIR/2015/                                                            Date: 12.01.2015

To
The Director General
All India Radio
Akashwani Bhawan
New Delhi – 110001
Telefax: +91-11-23421956.

Subject:    Non-Inclusion of Production Assistants / Floor Managers / Property Assistants in the eligibility list for convening of DPC for regular & ad-hoc promotion in the grade of Programme Executive from its feeder cadres.

Reference:  Your communication no. 04/191/2014-SI (B)/46 dated 08/01/2015 uploaded in the AIRNET.

Sir,
         As you are aware, after long 30 yrs. the programme professionals of DD got a ray of hope after issuing an order of in-situ promotion towards the eligible TREXs and Production Assistants / Floor Managers / Property Assistants of Doordarshan.

         This is very much unfortunate that AIR Directorate has issued an order for convening of DPC for regular & ad-hoc promotion in the grade of Programme Executive from its feeder cadres wherein the list of TREXs has been attached ignoring all the Production Assistants / Floor Managers / Property Assistants of Doordarshan. There is no mention of PEX (in-situ) against TREXs though they have been promoted as PEX (in-situ) like the Production Assistants / Floor Managers / Property Assistants of Doordarshan.

         The above order under reference is signed by Dr. Kamalesh Kumar, DDA of AIR Dte. who has also issued the order of in-situ promotion towards the eligible TREXs and Production Assistants / Floor Managers / Property Assistants. Issuance of this in-situ order of promotion clearly specifies AIR Dte as the cadre controlling authority of the Production Assistants / Floor Managers / Property Assistants of Doordarshan though in the present case this issue has not been taken care of.

It is requested to your good self to incorporate the list of Production Assistants / Floor Managers / Property Assistants of Doordarshan for convening of DPC for regular & ad-hoc promotion in the grade of Programme Executive from its feeder cadres.

With regards.
Yours faithfully,


(Umesh Mishra)

President
