FIRST  CIRCLE  CONFERENCE  OF  AIPEU GDS (NFPE),  WEST BENGAL CIRCLE 

     
          The 1st West Bengal Circle Conference of the new AIPEU GDS (NFPE), the true sine qua non of GDS employees has come out with flying colours yesterday, the 17th June 2012, at Srirampore High School (Com. Nani Banerjee Nagar), South Hooghly Division.

    Com. R.N.Parashar, Dy. Secretary General (NFPE), has inaugurated the Circle Conference with 300 delegates, visitors and guests. He also explained the situation under which, after long efforts to keep the S.S.Mahadebaiya-led AIPEDEU with NFPE in the platform of joint movement, it became imperative to form a new union. The pro-administration attitude, reluctance to call for movements and joint movements, dictatorship in the name of leadership, undemocratic style of functioning and unanswered but convincing allegations of lack of transparency in dealing with union fund made our comrades to take a tough decision. Thankfully, our beloved Federation and affiliates are backing this new union strongly.

     Circle Secretaries of Group-C (Com. Janardan Majumdar) and Postmasn & Gr-D/MSE (Com. Nirmal Ch. Dey) were present and deliberated in the house at Com. Madan Chakraborty Mancha. Prominent leaders like Com. Shib Sankar Roy, Com. Pijush Roy, Com. Tapan Dasgupta as well as many other Circle office bearers were also present. Though preparation was taken within very short time, the enthusiasm, participation and determination of our comrades reflected in the success of the conference.
