As per the approved policy of the Board of Deendayal Port Authority,
which has duly been endorsed by the Ministry of Ports, Shipping & Waterways
in August 2023, 12 Nos. of dependent family members of the erstwhile DLB
(presently known as Cargo Handling division (Under the Traffic Department),
decided to provide employment on compassionate ground.
The Board, at it meeting held on 04-09-2024, under the Chairmanship of
Shri Sushil Kumar Singh, IRSME , Chairman DPA, took this decision.
The Traffic manager, has been directed to issue ‘Offer of appointment’
to all such dependents family members. The issue of providing employment
to these people, were under consideration since long by the department due to
non verification of documents. This benevolent decision of the port
administration has ultimately led for employment of such family members of
deceased employees, which will definately bring out them from financial
destitute. In December 2023, 14 such dependent family members of DPA other than
CHD were provided employment. In last 7 months, DPA has provided employment on
compassionate ground to 28 such dependents as per approved policy.
