                                                                   F. No. AICEIA/Mumbai/Misc/2015
                                                                   Mumbai, the 08thAugust, 2015

To,
The Joint Commissioner of Customs (P),
R&I (Administration),
New Custom House,
Mumbai.

Sir,
            Sub:- Joint Consultative Machinery (JCM) Meeting-reg.

          Please refer to your letter F. No. SD/INT/ADMN/I/61/2006-R&I dated 06.08.2015 on the above subject.
             In this connection, it is to inform you that a letter is given to the Additional Commissioner of Customs (P), M&P Wing, Mumbai under F. No. AICEIA/Mumbai/TPP/2015 dated 05.06.2015 enumerating the below mentioned point and a reminder was also submitted on dated 07.07.2015. 
             It is submitted that the strength of M&P Wing had been reduced from 158 to 106 after CR and further the working strength was still reduced to 80. As such, the officers of M&P Wing are facing huge difficulties in performing regular duties and the additional work as mentioned below which can easily be done away with. As such the below mentioned points are converted to agenda points:-
1)      Control Room Duty:-There is shortage of Inspectors in M&P Wing (80 working strength). The day control room duty is conducted by the officers of different Sections sitting in Everest House. The staff strength of each section has been reduced from earlier strength and in majority of the sections there is only one inspector. The inspector on Day CRO duty, the sections work of the individual officer’s gets accumulated and they have to clear it on the following days. The work of day CRO officer is as below:-
a)      To attend the some phone calls regarding miscellaneous inquiry,
b)      handing over keys of vehicles,
c)       issuance of Arms, if required.
               It is to mention that with regards attending of phone calls can be handled even by a Hawaldar. The issuance of arms which is once or twice in a year (i.e. the statistic of last two to three years) can be handled by the section in-charge of arms and ammunition. As regards vehicles, the same can be handled by MTO/PRO Superintendent.  In view of the above, it  is only the wastage of man power by deputing Inspector as CRO in day time, whereas the hawaldar/Sepoy are enough for day control room duty and  in case of  any difficulty/emergency, P.R.O/M.T.O. can co-ordinate/manage the situation.
2)     Special NRP duty:- Special NRP duty is conducted by M&P Wing, Mumbai on even days of every month. We cover the area of jurisdiction of R&I Wing during Special Night Road Patrolling (NRP). This special NRP was allotted to M&P Wing as there was not enough staff in R&I Wing. Now the strength of M&P Wing has been further reduced to 80 (working strength). Therefore, it is requested that R&I Wing may be directed to conduct special NRP duty which are part of their duty.
3)   Special Holidays duty:-  In addition to Control Room duty, the officers i.e. Superintendents and Inspectors are also deputed for Special CRO duties on holidays. Both of them sit in control room for performing the duties. Both of them perform the duties as mentioned in point 1 (a) to 1 (c). it is to submit that if the officers are required in emergency on holidays, they can be called by contacting them on mobile phone. The contact no. of all the officers is available in office record. Therefore, it is requested to discontinue the special holiday duty.
4)    Working strength of Inspectors:-  At present, the working strength of inspector is 80. Inspectors are facing heavy work load. It is requested that working strength of inspector should be maintained as per sanction strength i.e. 106.  

                                                                                           Yours sincerely,
                                                                                                    Sd/- 
                                                                                      (ABHISHEK SINGH)
                                                                                          General Secretary
                                                                                     AICEIA, Mumbai Circle
