Further, in case of reversion to feeder cadre, DPS of the Postal Circle where official is working as Inspector Posts may consider such requests in consultation with parent Circle of the official in feeder cadre. Cases where an official is allotted to his / her parent Circle, DPS concerned may take a decision. Cases decided by Circle may invariably be informed to Directorate.
