Respected Madam,
On behalf of AIPSBCOEA TN Circle, it is brought to the kind notice of the DPS Southern Region regarding few grievances of the SBCO officials vide the Directorate orders mentioned in the reference above.
As per the Directorate letter number mentioned above in reference , the guidelines have been issued to regulate the Intra-Circle transfer of PA(SBCO) officials.
This order states that “ the vacancy of PA (SBCO) cadre, which become vacant by virtue of promotion, superannuation etc. are straightaway being added in strength of PA (PO) cadre resulting in no vacancy in PA (SBCO) cadre. Due to this, Intra-Circle transfer in PA (SBCO) cadre are not being done even through TPC, because as soon as the vacancy is arising, same is being added to Postal Divisions. Matter has been re-examined, and it is reiterated that any vacancies that will arise in the future in the PA (SBCO) cadre shall not be straightaway merge with the Postal Division. Circles shall first consider the Intra- Circle transfer against vacant post of PA (SBCO) and any requests for Intra-Circle transfer in PA (SBCO) cadre may be processed thereafter by the Circle /Region Office through TPC.”
The purpose of the Directorate orders is to make the PAs SBCO accommodate as per their choice of place during rotational/request transfers. But, it is noticed that the vacancies araised due to promotions/Superannuation are not notified during rotational transfers and the requests of PAs SBCO are not considered for those vacancies.
One example is cited below:
1. One PA (SBCO) post is vacant at Madurai HO (Madurai Division) as one Smt. Chitradevi was promoted to LSG. But this post is not notified in the RT Notification in the reference.
2. Another PA (SBCO) post is vacant at Ambasamudiram HO (Tirunelveli Division) as one Smt. Vidhya was promoted to LSG. But this post is also not notified in the RT Notification in the reference.
The vacancies araised due to promotions were considered in Western Region RT 2025 vide the reference no. 3 mentioned above and PAs SBCO were posted to those places as per their choices given. The letter is enclosed for your information.
Hence, it is requested to kindly include both the PA SBCO vacancies in the RT Notification 2026 as per the Directorate orders to consider the places of choice of the PAs SBCO during Rotational/Request transfers. This will enable the PAs SBCO to get their choices of places as there are very few PAs SBCO posts only.
A line of reply is solicited Please.

One example is cited below:
One PA (SBCO) post is now vacant at Tirunelveli HO as one Smt. Vidhya had been promoted to LSG. But this post was not notified during Rotational transfer.
As per the above mentioned Directorate order, it is requested that one Smt. Anandha Gomathi who had already given representation i/c/w rotational transfer may be posted in the PA (SBCO) vacancy at Tirunelveli H.O as her request for extension is not considered by the regional administration.

Hence, suitable instructions may be issued to all the Regions for following the Directorate orders and to consider the places of choice of the PAs SBCO during Rotational/Request transfers.

To
The Chief Postmaster General,
Tamil Nadu Circle,
Chennai- 600 002.
Sub: Request to give priority to the SBCO Officials during transfers-reg…
Priority to SBCO officials during transfers:
As per the Annexure 'A to Letter No. Q-25/1 1/2022-PE-I-DOP dated 16.ll.2022:
1. Modalities for merger of Postal Assistant (SBCO) cadre:
h) However, sanctioned establishment (number of sanctioned posts) of SBCO Branch, as decided from time to time, will continue to remain the same for the purpose of posting of officials.
j) Posting of PA in SBCO will be done from Postal Divisions on tenure basis through Transfer and Placement Committee (TPC) of the Division. However, transfer/posting of PA (SBCO) who chooses to continue in SBCO cadre shall be decided as per extant rules/procedure/practice. Transfer/posting of officials who do not opt to switch over to Postal Operative Side will be made first by the Circle/Regional Office and thereafter, the Divisional TPC will consider transfer/posting for the remaining vacancies in SBCO.
Priority to be given to the PAs SBCO officials because there are only very few officials who are remaining back and more over they were recruited as PAs SBCO exclusively who obviously have full right to claim any of the posts in SBCO rather than the general line PAs. In case, if a PA SBCO claims a merged post within a division, he/she has to be given that post and the general line PA if posted on tenure basis in that place, can very well be shifted to any other post/place within the division as this will not in any way alter the total establishment of that division as per the Directorate order. This is the need of the hour as there are very few PAs SBCO posts available and far away from each other to rotate the PAs SBCO and creating a mental stress to all the PAs SBCO during each Rotational/Request transfer.
With regards,
