Sub:-   Supply of poor quality MPCM stickers to post offices – Allegations regarding

Sir,

This is to bring to the notice of the SSPOs that the MPCM stickers now supplied to post offices are of substandard nature as a result of which the counter P As are consuming more time than  committed to the members of public under the Citizen Charter to perform a transaction in MPCM.

1.     Due to poor quality perforation, a piece of sticker is not being torn easily and causing damage to the side sticker as a result of which two stickers are lost instead of one per MPCM transaction and there by inviting unnecessary loss of stationery / Govt. revenue.

2.     The back-gumming is too poor to separate the sticker from the gum paper which consumes more time in disposing a customer.

3.     The side holes are too disproportionate to run in the tractor which is also causing unnecessary loss of stickers and affecting the printer also.

For the purpose, this union requests the SSPOs kindly to conduct a physical verification to examine the alleged standard of the MPCM stickers now supplied to different post offices in Bhubaneswar Division.

Thus, it is requested to ask the supplier to withdraw these poor quality stickers and supply standard quality stickers eliminating the above problems so that prompt and proper service can be ensured to the members of public.

A reply on the nature of action taken is highly solicited.

With regards.

Yours faithfully,

 ( B  SAMAL)
