Bharatiya Postal, RMS, Administrative Supervisors Association's (BPRSA) Vision for Change
In the realm of postal services, the backbone often lies in the dedicated supervisors who ensure smooth operations and efficient service delivery. Recognizing the importance of their role and the need for a unified voice, the Bharatiya Postal, RMS, Administrative Supervisors Association (BPRASA) has emerged as a beacon of advocacy and empowerment for supervisors across India.
In a recent circular dated 9th April 2024, the association, headquartered in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, unveiled its plans and objectives for the upcoming membership verification process slated for July 2024. Central to their agenda is the quest for separate recognition and representation for supervisors, distinct from other categories within the postal service.
The circular elucidates the necessity for a separate supervisors' association, tracing its roots back to the 1970s. Despite being a vital cog in the postal machinery, supervisors often found themselves marginalized within existing associations, with their grievances and career progression sidelined. The BPRASA aims to rectify this imbalance by championing the cause of supervisors exclusively, ensuring their voices are heard and their concerns addressed.
Highlighting their achievements over the years, the association takes pride in its track record of advocating for the rights and welfare of supervisors. From securing pay hikes and promotions to fighting against injustices such as recovery orders and cadre restructuring, the BPRASA has consistently stood by its members, safeguarding their interests and advancing their careers.
Looking ahead, the association outlines a comprehensive manifesto for the future. Key objectives include ensuring timely promotions, upgrading pay grades, and enhancing disciplinary powers for supervisors. Additionally, the BPRASA pledges to continue its fight against the New Pension System, advocating for assured pensions for all civil servants.
Crucially, the association emphasizes the need for unity and collective action among supervisors nationwide. By joining forces under the BPRASA banner, supervisors can leverage their collective strength to effect meaningful change and secure a brighter future for themselves and their colleagues.
As the postal landscape evolves and challenges abound, the Bharatiya Postal, RMS, Administrative Supervisors Association stands as a steadfast ally for supervisors, steadfast in its commitment to empowerment, advocacy, and progress.
