North Block, New Delhi,
Dated the 19th April, 2010
OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject: Central Civil Services (Conduct) Rules, 1974 – Submission of representations by Government servants – instructions regarding.
The undersigned is directed to refer to this Department’s O.M. No. 1101317199-Estt. (A) dated 01.11.1999 on the abovementioned subject which indicates that the categories of representations from Government servants on service matters have been broadly identified as follows :-
(i) Representations/complaints regarding non-payment of salary1 allowances or other issues.
(ii) Representations on other service matters.
(iii) Representations against the orders of the immediate official superior authority; and

2. Necessary guidelines to deal with such representations are contained in the aforesaid O.M. which are to be followed by the administrative authorities. However, it is observed that some officials resort to the practice of sending repeated representations on the same issue which involves repeated examination of the same issue and bogs down the official machinery to the detriment of consideration of more important and time-bound issues. The matter has been considered by this Department. It needs to be emphasized that Government servants should desist from making frequent and numerous representations on the same issue. The second representation on the same issue will bc examined only if it contains any fresh points regarding new developments or facts having a bearing on the issue. It has been decided that when representations have already been considered and replied, further representations exceeding two on the same issue will henceforth be ignored. A Government servant may make a representation to an authority higher than the lowest competent authority only when he is able to establish that all the points or submissions made therein have not been fully and properly considered by his immediate official superior, or the Head of Office concerned or such other authority at the lowest level competent to deal with the matter. Government servants should desist from prematurely addressing the higher authorities.
3. All the Ministries/Departments arc requested to bring the above guidelines for the notice of all concerned for information and compliance
All the cadre/sub-cadre authorities are requested to deal with such cases accordingly.

0 Postal department to launch pre-paid cards for shopping
Postal department will introduce pre-paid cards that will enable cashless transactions at retail outlets across the country, as it looks to leverage the cash-handling expertise of its 1.5 lakh post offices to generate revenues.
The magnetic strip-based cards could be used at merchant establishments and automated teller machines (ATMs) where cards from VISA, Mastercard and American Express are accepted, said a communications and information technology ministry official.
The department proposes to allow top-ups in the multiples of Rs 1,000 up to Rs 50,000 and aims to complete project formalities such as procurement and training by the first quarter of fiscal 2010.
These cards, which will allow people across the country to make cashless transactions, could boost retail spending by rural households . “The cards could be used for various purposes such as at point of sale, at ATMs, on the Internet, for mobile commerce and for facilitating electronic money transfer,” the government official quoted earlier said, requesting anonymity.
The department has begun identifying a banking solutions partner. The banks will share a percentage of the revenue earned from pre-paid cards with the department, the official said. The banks will have the technology platform and disclose their technology compatibility and certifications with VISA, Mastercard and American Express.
According to the proposal, the department will provide the infrastructure and network to sell and distribute the cards while the bank will partner in operating the pre-paid cards through post offices.
