Madam,



Sub: - Grant of Raod Mileage Allowance to Systems Administrators of Chennai City Divisions – regarding

It is brought to our notice that on receipt of Directorate instructions vide No. 17-01/2011-PAP dt. 23.06.2011, the road mileage allowance hitherto granted to system Administrators of Chennai divisions has been stopped and they were brought under conveyance allowance. This has caused resentment amidst the employees and also put to heavy loss since they have to rush to the spots to attend the unforeseen errors and technical snags only by using their two wheelers in the city. Other conveyances are not suitable to attend the faults from time to time.



In the orders cited in para supra under para 2-1, it is clearly stated that the Heads of circle shall determine the nature of Allowance whether conveyance Allowance, Road Mileage Allowance, TA etc can be attended considering the nature of job as they are the competent authorities.





As such, the chief PMG may weigh the role and responsibilities of the Systems Administrators considering their immediate requirement to attend the faults and also sitting late nights to install software, patches etc. and the non availability of public conveyance at odd hours etc.



In respect of System Administrators working in Chennai City divisions, there is every justification to bring them under the purview of Road Mileage Allowance.



It is therefore requested to kindly consider and cause appropriate orders at the earliest applying the Road Mileage Allowance to Systems Administrators working in Chennai City divisions.



A line in reply about the action taken is highly appreciated.



Yours faithfully,



(J. Ramamurthy)

Sub: Admissibility of various kinds of Travelling Allowances in the case of System Administrators, Marketing Executives, PRI(P)s etc.-reg: -

Sir/ Madam,

This is regarding (i) application of Road Mileage Allowance to Systems Administrators, (ii) grant of fixed Conveyance Allowance to Marketing Executives; and (iii) bring the PRI(P)s under TA Rules for the journeys beyond 16 KMs.

2.0 It is reiterated that the Supplementary Rules and the Government Orders thereunder, pertaining to the grant of fixed conveyance allowance, payment of Road mileage and payment of Travelling Allowance to various categories of staff, “including System Administrators, Marketing Executives and PRI(P)s, working in this Department”, for their travels within and beyond 16 KMs, are not only clear and distinct but also their implementation is well within the powers of the Heads of Departments (Heads of Circles in case of Postal Circles).

2.1 It is therefore, requested that the possibilities of payment of Road Mileage Allowance to System Administrators, payment of fixed conveyance allowance to the Marketting Executives may be examined under appropriate rules (ie. SRs 22 to 25, 45 or 46 as the case may be) and Government orders thereunder and decided at Circle level itself. Normal TA/ DA for the journeys beyond 16 KMs from their normal place/ headquarters of duty, may be granted to the PRI(P)s, System Administrators and Marketting Executives, as per the existing provisions available under the Fundamental Rules & Supplementary Rules(Part-II : TA Rules) and Government’s orders thereunder.

2.2 In case the Marketting Executives and System Administrators are also required to travel extensively within 16 KMs, as in the case of PRI(P)s, their cases may also be examined by maintanance of log books for three months with reference to the “GIO(1) below SR-25 prescribing the slabs of distances and corresponding monthly rates of conveyance allowance” and decided swiftly in order to allow the justified allowances to the employees concerned without delay.

3.0 The issue of payment of “fixed conveyance allowance” to the postal assistants assigned the duties of going to Clearing Houses, etc., in connection with clearence of cheques, has also been raised. It is clarified that no such fixed conveyance allowance, like PRI(P)s could be considered for such Postal Assistants as their job cannot be equated with the former. It is therefore, made clear that such officials may be reimbursed actual expenses incurred by them for such visits accoring to their entitlements or prescribed per Kilo Meter rate of road mileage may be granted in case of their journeys carried out through their own scooters/ motorcycles as the case may be, with reference to the applicable rules and instructions.

Sir/Madam,

I am directed to say that in the meeting of the Departmental Council of JCM, held on 27.08.2011, the staff side has inter alia raised the following two issues for consideration and taking appropriate decision.

2.0 Item 49: - The staff side stated that the work of clearance of cheques should not be brought under the ambit of conveyance Allowance as the officials entrusted the work pertaining to clearance of cheques, have to travel 40-45 KMs. a day and used to incur an expenditure of minimum Rs.50/- every day. Besides, they have also to pay parking charges for their vehicles. The present rate(s) is/are not sufficient to meet the requirements.

2.1 Item: 60: - In this item, the Staff side has contended for payment of a fixed conveyance allowance of Rs.1000/- per month to the Marketing Executive, which in their views would meet the expenditure being incurred by them during their extensive travels with in the areas, while performing their duties.

3. The matter have been considered at Directorate level. As both the matters pertain to various Circles, having different kinds of situations and circumstances in accordance with their ground realities, it has been desired to have both the issues examined in detail by the Heads of Circles in the first instance, and have their detailed reports, the practice followed in their circles, applicability of various rules and instructions on the subject, any representations, etc., from the concerned staff comments and recommendations of the HOC as well as estimated/ additional financial implications, if any, alongwith the views of their CIFAs; in order to examine the matters further at Directorate level.
