No reservation charts in trains from March 1.

Indian Railways, which has the largest network in the world, plans to save money by doing away with reservation charts on all trains.



The Green initiative has already been implemented it in reserved coaches at New Delhi’s Hazrat Nizamuddin, Mumbai Central, Chennai Central, Howrah, and Sealdah stations, but now the Ministry of Railways has decided to discontinue this service on all trains for six months.


The Ministry of Railway has directed its zones to discontinue pasting reservation charts on reserved coaches of all trains at A1, A and B category stations as a pilot project for six months from March 1, an official statement said on Friday. However, physical and digital display of charts will continue at the platforms, the ministry statement said.


Based on the income from passengers, the railways classifies its stations into seven categories A1, A, B, C, D, E and F. It has 17 zones. “At those stations where electronic charts display plasma has been installed and the same is functioning properly, physical reservation charts at such platforms can be stopped,” it added.


The aim behind the move to go paperless is the green initiative by South Western Railways Bengaluru Division (SBC), which discontinued pasting charts on reserved coaches of all trains from Bengaluru City and Yeshwantpur stations from November 2016. The move helped save over Rs 60 lakh spent on paper by the division.


The Southern Railways, as part of Green Initiative, will also discontinue the practise of pasting of reservation charts on train coaches on a trial basis for six months from March 1. However, the respective coach and berth number information would still be available at centralised locations in all the railway stations and also with the travelling ticket examiners, an official release said. By moving towards paperless initiative, the southern railway would be able to save 28 tonne of charting paper and Rs 1.70 lakh every year, the release said. Other efforts include encouraging e-ticketing for both reserved and unreserved tickets, it said.


Meanwhile, Railways has initiated a massive recruitment drive to hire 89,000 employees in levels C and D. This recruitment drive has been started to hire for the posts of assistant loco pilots, technicians, switchmen, trackmen, helpers, porters and many other openings. Railway minister Piyush Goyal tweeted February 14 that they have started the recruitment process for group D for 62,907 posts. Candidates that are high school pass or have an ITI or industrial training institute degree are eligible to apply for it, last date being March 12.

RESOLUTION ADOPTED FROM FIVE DAYS RELAY DHARNA( 12.02.2018 to 16.02.2018) AT MEGHDOOT BHAWAN, NEW DELHI

NATIONAL FEDERATION OF POSTAL EMPLOYEES
1st Floor North Avenue Post Office Building, New Delhi-110 001

RESOLUTION ADOPTED FROM FIVE DAYS RELAY DHARNA( 12.02.2018 to 16.02.2018) AT MEGHDOOT BHAWAN, NEW DELHI


This mammoth 5 days’ Relay Dharna held at Chief PMG office, Meghdoot Bhawan, New Delhi notes with gravest concern that the Postal Administration has gradually become apathetic and inconsiderate towards the genuine grievances of postal employees including GDS/Part time/DRMs. Negotiating forums have been made defunct. Periodical meetings are not being held since long. Even JCM departmental council meeting has not been held since last one year. The Department of Posts is bringing about serious changes in its operation, functioning and launching new services. We are also supporting such changes for ensuring prompt services to people and there by existence of our department. But in our opinion all are being done unilaterally and in a hasty manner without caring the least even for the recommended infrastructure and training. The views of staff of our department, which is the actual resource represented by this Federation and also other legitimate bodies are completely neglected, denied of.


In recent years right from Branch/Division to All India we have conducted a series of agitation programs followed by All India Strike on 23rd August 2017 to express our grievances and also to attract the attention of administration in the interest of services along with the burning issues of staff side. But unfortunately we are feeling that the Postal Administration of different tiers are paying no heed to our genuine protest, rather refusing to start dialogues with the staff side. Even at present our Trade Union rights like grant of special casual leave, leave to attend union meetings and program are also drastically denied of. As a whole, the legitimacy of the staff side is being humiliated every day and purposefully organization is being made insignificant. Sometimes it looks like declaring an administrative war against its own staff and staff representatives.


This august platform still does not believe in conflicts as it would only frustrate the noble purpose of public service rendered by India Post. All ways from our side are still open for dialogue and cooperation. In this background we think for our existence it would be wise if Postal Administration comes forward and starts effective discussions to utilize the potency of the Postal employees taking them into confidence rather than treating as hurdles. With this hope this continuous demonstration demands immediate restoration of all round dialogues with the staff side at all tiers and bringing back all forum into effect. At all India level this dialogue should immediately be started on our 15 Points Charter of Demands (Copy enclosed). Already we have backed by the walls. So if present ongoing pains, miseries of staff and ignorance to staff side still are continued or intensified, the situation will compel the entire postal employees to resort to start wider form of trade union action including Indefinite Strike, for which the Administration will be solely responsible.

PPF, NSC Act changes not to affect tax status; aimed at allowing early closure: Govt

PPF, NSC Act changes not to affect tax status; aimed at allowing early closure: Govt


The government, on Tuesday, clarified that no change in interest rate or tax policy on small savings schemes, which includes PPF and NSCs, is being made through the amendments proposed in Budget 2018. 

It has been proposed in the Budget to merge the Government Savings Certificates Act, 1959 and Public Provident Fund Act, 1968 with the Government Savings Banks Act, 1873. 

With a single Act, relevant provisions of the Government Savings Certificates (NSC) Act, 1959 and the Public Provident Fund Act, 1968 would stand subsumed in the new amended Act without compromising on any of the functional provision of the existing Act, says a press note issued today. 

As per the note, these changes are proposed in order to allow the government to easily allow premature closure in the schemes and provide other procedural benefits to depositors by simply issuing a notification. 

A ministry of finance tweet also stated, "All existing protections have been retained while consolidating PPF Act under the proposed Government Savings Promotion Act. No existing benefits to depositors are proposed to be taken away through this process." 

The government through the press note also makes it clear that there is no proposal to withdraw the provision of protection against the attachment of Public Provident Fund Account under any decree or order of any court in respect of any debt or liability incurred by the depositors and the existing and future depositors will continue to enjoy protection from the attachment under the amended umbrella Act as well. 

Apart from ensuring existing benefits, certain new benefits to the depositors have been proposed under the bill. These provisions which are proposed to be incorporated in the amended Act will add to the flexibility in operation of the Account under Small Savings Schemes. These are: 

i. Premature closure 

Existing: As per PPF Act, the PPF account can't be closed prematurely before completion of five financial years. If depositor wants to close PPF account before five years in exigencies, he can't close the account. 

Proposed: To make provisions for premature closure easier in respect of all schemes, provisions could now be made through specific scheme notification. The benefits of premature closure of Small Savings Schemes may now be introduced to deal with medical emergencies, higher education needs, etc. 

ii. Investment by minors 

Existing : Investment in Small Savings Schemes can be made by Guardian on behalf of minor(s) under the provisions made in the proposed bill Guardian may also be given associated rights and responsibilities. 

Proposed : There was no clear provision earlier regarding deposit by minors in the existing Acts. The provision has been made now to promote culture of savings among children. 

iii. Proceeds to heirs 

Existing: As per existing provisions of the Acts, if depositor dies and nomination exists, the outstanding balances will be paid to nominee(s). 

Proposed: Whereas, Supreme Court in its judgement stated that nominee(s) is merely empowered to collect the amounts as Trustee for the benefit of legal heirs. It was creating disputes between the provisions of the Acts and verdict of Supreme Court. Hence, right of nominees have now been more clearly defined. 

iv. Nomination 

Existing: In the existing Acts, there is no provision for nomination with regard to account opened in the name of minor. Further, existing Acts say that if account holder dies and there is no nomination and amount is more than prescribed limit, the amount shall be paid to legal heirs. In this case, the guardian has to obtain succession certificate. 

Proposed To remove this inconvenience, provisions for nomination with regard to account opened in the name of minors have been incorporated. Further the provision has been made that if the minor dies and there is no nomination, the balances shall be paid to guardian. 


v. Grievance redressal 

Existing: The existing Acts are silent about grievance redressal. 

Proposed The amended Act allows the Government to put in place mechanism for redressal of grievances and for amicable and expeditious settlement of disputes relating to Small Savings. 

vi. Other changes 

There were no clear provisions in all the three Acts for the operation of accounts in the name of physically infirm and differently abled persons. Provisions in this regard have now been made.

Public Provident Fund (PPF) Accounts To Offer More Benefits

Apart from higher interest rates compared to bank deposits, PPF or Public Provident Fund also offers a host of income tax benefits.
PPF or public provident fund is one the most popular saving schemes. Apart from higher interest rates compared to bank deposits, PPF also offers a host of income tax benefits. In terms of income tax implications,PPF enjoys an EEE – exempt, exempt, exempt – status. This means the contribution, interest and maturity proceeds are all tax-free. PPF contribution up to Rs. 1.5 lakh in a financial year is eligible for tax deductions under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. Now, PPF accounts are likely to come with more benefits.
Here are 10 things to know about thechanges proposed in PPF rules:
1. The government has proposed to allow premature closure of Public Provident Fund (PPF) accounts.
2. According to the current PPF account rules, premature closure of PPF account is allowed only under specific conditions such as expenditure towards medical treatment and higher education. The account has to complete at least five financial years.
3. “To make provisions for premature closure easier in respect of all schemes, provisions could now be made through specific scheme notification. The benefits of premature closure of small savings schemes may now be introduced to deal with medical emergencies, higher education needs, etc,” the Ministry of Finance said in a statement.
4. The government has also plans to consolidate PPF Act under the proposed Government Savings Promotion Act. The government has said that “no existing benefits to depositors are proposed to be taken away through this process”.
5. “The main objective in proposing a common Act is to make implementation easier for the depositors as they need not go through different rules and Acts for understanding the provision of various small saving schemes, and also to introduce certain flexibilities for the investors,” the Finance Ministry said.
6. PPF accounts are immune from attachment under court decree order. The Finance Ministry has also clarified that there is no proposal to withdraw the provision and the existing and future depositors will continue to enjoy protection from the attachment under the amended umbrella Act as well.
7. The government has also said that apart from ensuring existing benefits, certain new benefits to the depositors have been proposed under the bill to merge Government Savings Certificates Act, 1959 and Public Provident Fund Act, 1968 with the Government Savings Banks Act, 1873.
8. “The existing Acts are silent about grievance redressal. The amended Act allows the Government to put in place mechanism for redressal of grievances and for amicable and expeditious settlement of disputes relating to Small Savings,” the Finance Ministry said.
9. As per existing provisions of the Acts, if the depositor dies and nomination exists, the outstanding balances will be paid to nominee(s). But Supreme Court in its judgement stated that nominee(s) is merely empowered to collect the amounts as trustee for the benefit of legal heirs, the Finance Ministry said. “It was creating disputes between the provisions of the Acts and verdict of Supreme Court. Hence, right of nominees have now been more clearly defined,” the ministry said in a statement.
10. No change in interest rate or tax policy on small savings scheme is being made through this amendment, the government clarified. The interest rate on PPF accounts, like other small savings schemes, is reset on a quarterly basis. Currently, PPF accounts fetch an interest rate of 7.6 per cent (for January-March quarter).

Government of India makes Amendments in Small Savings Act - Proposes merger of Government Savings Certificates Act, 1959 and Public Provident Fund Act, 1968 with the Government Savings Banks Act, 1873

Ministry of Finance

Government of India makes Amendments in Small Savings Act; 
Proposes merger of Government Savings Certificates Act, 1959 and Public Provident Fund Act, 1968 with the Government Savings Banks Act, 1873; 

All existing protections have been retained while consolidating PPF Act under the proposed Government Savings Promotion Act.​ ​

Posted On: 13 FEB 2018 5:41PM by PIB Delhi
The Government gives highest priority to the interest of small savers, especially savings for the benefit of girl child, the senior citizens and the regular savers who form the backbone of our country’s savings architecture. In order to remove existing ambiguities due to multiple Acts and rules for Small Saving Schemes and further strengthen the objective of “Minimum Government, Maximum Governance”, Government of India has proposed merger of Government Savings Certificates Act, 1959 and Public Provident Fund Act, 1968 with the Government Savings Banks Act, 1873. With a single act, relevant provisions of the Government Savings Certificates (NSC) Act, 1959 and the Public Provident Fund Act, 1968 would stand subsumed in the new amended Act without compromising on any of the functional provision of the existing Act.
  
 All existing protections have been retained while consolidating PPF Act under the proposed Government Savings Promotion Act. No existing benefits to depositors are proposed to be taken away through this process. The main objective in proposing a common Act is to make implementation easier for the depositors as they need not go through different rules and Acts for understanding the provision of various small saving schemes, and also to introduce certain flexibilities for the investors.

However, concerns have been raised from different corners and also by print and social media that the Government aims to bring down the protection against the attachment of Public Provident Fund Account under any decree or order of any court in respect of any debt or liability incurred by the depositors. It is made clear that there is no proposal to withdraw the said provision and the existing and future depositors will continue to enjoy protection from the attachment under the amended umbrella Act as well.

Apart from ensuring existing benefits, certain new benefits to the depositors have been proposed under the bill. These are:

  • As per PPF Act, the PPF account can’t be closed prematurely before completion of five financial years. If depositor wants to close PPF account before five years in exigencies, he can’t close the account. To make provisions for premature closure easier in respect of all schemes, provisions could now be made through specific scheme notification. The benefits of premature closure of Small Savings Schemes may now be introduced to deal with medical emergencies, higher education needs, etc.
  • Investment in Small Savings Schemes can be made by Guardian on behalf of minor(s) under the provisions made in the proposed bill Guardian may also be given associated rights and responsibilities.
  • There was no clear provision earlier regarding deposit by minors in the existing Acts. The provision has been made now to promote culture of savings among children.
  • There were no clear provisions in all the three Acts for the operation of accounts in the name of physically infirm and differently abled persons. Provisions in this regard have now been made.
  • As per existing provisions of the Acts, if depositor dies and nomination exists, the outstanding balances will be paid to nominee(s). Whereas, Hon’ble Supreme Court in its judgement stated that nominee(s) is merely empowered to collect the amounts as Trustee for the benefit of legal heirs. It was creating disputes between the provisions of the Acts and verdict of Supreme Court. Hence, right of nominees have now been more clearly defined.
  • In the existing Acts, there is no provision for nomination with regard to account opened in the name of minor. Further, existing Acts say that if account holder dies and there is no nomination and amount is more than prescribed limit, the amount shall be paid to legal heirs.  In this case, the guardian has to obtain succession certificate. To remove this inconvenience, provisions for nomination with regard to account opened in the name of minors have been incorporated. Further the provision has been made that if the minor dies and there is no nomination, the balances shall be paid to guardian. 
  • The existing Acts are silent about grievance redressal. The amended Act allows the Government to put in place mechanism for redressal of grievances and for amicable and expeditious settlement of disputes relating to Small Savings.
  •  The above provisions which are proposed to be incorporated in the amended Act will add to the flexibility in operation of the Account under Small Savings Schemes.

Apart from offering higher interest rates compared to bank deposits, some of the small savings schemes also enjoy income tax benefits. No change in interest rate or tax policy on small savings scheme is being made through this amendment.

Apprehension that certain Small Savings Schemes would be closed is also without basis.
