Sub: Determination of date of increment after expiry of duration or penalties of withholding of increments/reduction to lower stage imposed for less than a year regarding.

Ministry of Railways have received a few references regarding certain penalties of rule 6 of Railway Servants (Discipline And Appeal) Rules, 1968 which are having pay element imposed for less than a year. In one case, the penalty of withholding of increments was imposed on 24.3.2008 for a period of six months with cumuiative effect and in the other case the penalty of reduction to lower stage was imposed on 9.2.2009 for a period of six months with non-cumulative effect.

2. The question of date of release of increment in the above cases on expiry of the penalty, in the context of fixing of 1st July as the date of increment uniformally for all Government servants following VIth CPC, has been examined in consultation with the Department of Personnel & Training. It is advised that fixing of 1st July as the date of increment for all Government servants under the Revised Pay Rules following the acceptance of the recommendation of the VIth CPC, is relevant only in respect of Annual increment. This provision is not applicable where the increment is withheld as a measure of penalty. In cases where the increment is withheld as a penalty for a specified period restoration of the withheld increment would be at the end of the currency of the penalty and not postponed to the next 1st July. The person concerned may even be entitled to the next increment on the 1st July following the expiry of the currency of the penalty, (notwithstanding the fact that the penalty imposed on him was having postponing effect on his future increments), if he has net qualifying service of six months prior to the relevant 1st July.

3. Likewise, where tne penalty of reduction to lower stage was imposed, the pay will be restored immediately on expiry of the currency of the penalty. In so far as release of next increment is concerned, the same may also be allowed immediately on restoration if the person concerned has rendered net qualifying service of six months on the 1st July preceding the date of the expiry of the currency of the penalty.

4. Please acknowledge receipt.

Twelve lakh Central Government Employees will be on 48 hr. Strike on 12th and 13th Feb. 2014 -Press Statement Issued by Confedration

PRESS STATEMENT ISSUED BY THE CONFEDERATION

CONFEDERATION OF CENTRAL GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES & WORKERS.
CHQ: 1st Floor, North Avenue Post Office Building
New Delhi - 110001
E mail: confederation06@yahoo.co.in 
Website:confederationhq.blogspot.com.

Dated: 15th January, 2014.

PRESS NOTE

Twelve lakh Central Government Employees will be on 48 hr. Strike on 12th and 13th Feb. 2014 demanding settlement of 15 point Charter of Demands, the major issues being immediate wage revision and repealing the new contributory Pension Scheme by reintroducing the Statutory Defined Benefit Pension Scheme which was in vogue for more than a century.

The Government in September 2013 announced the setting up of VII-Central Pay Commission to effect Wage Revision from 1.01.2016. The employees have made it clear that prospective date of effect is not acceptable to them and the VII-CPC recommendations must of effective from 01.01.2014. The Government is yet to take a decision on the Terms of Reference of the VII-CPC viz, the merger of Dearness Allowance, composition of the VII-CPC with a labour representative, Interim Relief, the need to bring the Gramin Dak Sevalcs of Postal Department within the ambit of the CPC.etc.

The employees are agitated over the introduction of the New Pension Scheme, passing the PFRDA Bill in the last session of the Parliament, the denial to guarantee minimum pension and the provision of the new enactment to cover even the existing employees in the new contributory pension Scheme. The employees covered under the new pension scheme are apprehensive of having no pension at the end of their service career of 35 years for the return on their contributions is presently linked to the market.

The Confederation of the Central Government Employees and Workers in their National Executive Meeting held at New Delhi on 10th January, 2014 expressed their total dissatisfaction over the closure of JCM, the negotiating machinery and the consequent non-settlement of any of their demands in the last nine years. The introduction of contract labour system in carrying Governmental functions, the indiscriminate outsourcing, closure of many institutions, the total ban on creation of posts and recruitment have made regular employment inCentral Services impossible. The Confederation has therefore, decided to organise the two day strike on 12th and 13th February, 2014. The resolution adopted at the meeting of the National Executive (copy of which is enclosed), explains in detail the major issues.

Wife has right to know husband’s salary: CIC

New Delhi: Wives of government servants have a “right” to know salary particulars of their husbands and these details should also be made public by their offices as mandated under suo-moto disclosure clause of the RTI Act, the Central information Commission has held.

Information Commissioner M Sridhar Acharyulu said every spouse has a right to information about the salary particulars of the other especially for the purpose of maintenance.

“More so, wife has a right to know the salary particulars of the husband, who is an employee of the public authority,” he said.

The commissioner further said that the details about a government employee’s salary is no third party information and these have to be voluntarily disclosed under Section 4(1)(b)(x) of the RTI Act.

He said the salary paid to the public authority is sourced from the tax paid by the people in general and it has to be disclosed mandatorily under the RTI section.

“The information about the salary of employee or an officer of the same public authority cannot be considered as a third party information… Public authorities cannot reject such RTI applications about salary under the pretext of the third party information,” he held.

Acharyulu warned the Home Department of Delhi government that such denial of information will be wrongful and could incur penalty. The warning was in context of an application filed by Jyoti Seherawat seeking salary slip of her husband who is employed at the Home (General) department.

The information was denied as her husband gave in written to the department that such an information should not be provided to anyone.

Merger of 50% percent DA may soon be considered by Central Government –Sources

Sources close to the Central Government Employees Federations told that Merger of 50% DA will soon be considered by Central Government before the budget session of Parliament in February 2014. According to the sources, the central government is likely to consider the central government employees  demand for merging of 50 % DA, for the reason that the DA will be crossing 100% level after January 2014.

The rate of dearness allowance to be paid to govt servants has been increasing consistently due to the rise in the prices of essential commodities for the past two years. In 2011 the rate of DA was at 50 % level. Since then all the Federation demanded the central government to merge the 50 Percent DA with basic Pay. But the government did not accept this demand to merge the DA with basis pay, as it was not recommended by sixth CPC.

The demand would be considered in view of parliament elections

But federations kept on demanding the government that raising dearness allowance alone will not help to compensate the alarming rate of price rice. So they urged the government to consider their demand favorably. It is believed that after the defeat in the election of four state legislative councils, the UPA government has decided to reconsider about its decision on the issues which directly affects the common public. The high command of the ruling party thought that the reason for their defeat in the state election is mainly because of their government failed to contain the price rise. The gap between common public and UPA government has been considerably increased. To correct these failures the UPA government decides to do something to attract the voters.

After announcing the government’s proposal to constitute the 7th pay commission, the community of central government employees has been convinced to have soft view on this government. Further the 50 lakh central government employees would be made happy if the 50% DA is merged with Basic Pay. It is told that , as the central government staff association and federations demanding it very seriously, in case the government decides go with this demand, there will be around one crore voters will be in favour of UPA government. So the government may consider the demand of merging of 50% DA with basic Pay in view of forthcoming Parliament elections.

Allowances will have no impact on merging DA with basic Pay

The sources, associated with National Council JCM, said that the government initially was not willing to consider this demand as some allowance and advances have been raised by 25% whenever the DA crosses 50% level as per the sixth CPC recommendation. But federations insisted that the allowances, which are raised to 25 % level when DA crosses 50%, will have no impact on merging DA with basic pay. The only allowance will have an increase when Basic Pay increases are HRA. No other allowances will be increased and other entitlement of the respective Grade Pay will not be revised as the 50% DA to be merged will be kept under separate component like it was treated in 5CPC as Dearness Pay. “There is no need to worry about financial implications, as the 50% DA will be paid by just changing its nomenclature as Dearness Pay”, said sources.

50% DA merger to be decalered before DA crosses 100%

Further, it has been informed that it is good enough for the government to announce its decision before declaring the next additional installment of DA. Because the AICPIN for Industrial workers for the Month of December 2013 is awaited to determine the rate of dearness allowance to be paid from January 2014.The result of last 11 months AICPIN shows that DA will definitely be raised by 10 % from existing 90% level. So the rate of DA will be 100% with effect from 1st January 2014. After the DA increased to 100%, the demand for 50% DA merger will have to change its avatar. Probably the demand would be for 100% DA merger. So the federations expect the government may consider 50% DA merger soon.

However, decision if any in this regard should be taken before the announcement of election for parliament. It is expected that election announcement for parliament will be made by the end of February 2014. Before that,  the announcement of 50% DA merger is expected from central government.

PRESS NOTE

Twelve lakh Central Government Employees will be on 48 hr. Strike on 12th and 13th Feb. 2014 demanding settlement of 15 point charter of Demands, the major issues being immediate wage revision and repealing the new contributory Pension Scheme by reintroducing the Statutory Defined Benefit Pension Scheme which was in vogue for more than a century. The Government in September 2013 announced the setting up of VII-Central Pay Commission to effect Wage Revision from 1.01.2016. 

The employees have made it clear that prospective date of effect is not acceptable to them and the VII-CPC recommendations must of effective from 01.01.2014. The Government is yet to take a decision on the Terms

of Reference of the VII-CPC viz, the merger of Dearness Allowance, composition of the VII-CPC with a labour representative, Interim Relief, the need to bring the Gramin Dak Sevaks of Postal Department within the ambit of the CPC.etc.

The employees are agitated over the introduction of the New Pension Scheme, passing the PFRDA Bill in the last session of the Parliament, the denial to guarantee minimum pension and the provision of the new enactment to cover even the existing employees in the new contributory pension Scheme. The employees covered under the new pension scheme are apprehensive of having no pension at the end of their service career of 35 years for the return on their contributions is presently linked to the market.

The Confederation of the Central Government Employees and Workers in their National Executive Meeting held at New Delhi on 10th January, 2014 expressed their total dissatisfaction over the closure of JCM, the negotiating machinery and the consequent non-settlement of any of their demands in the last nine years, The introduction of contract labour system in carrying Governmental functions, the indiscriminate outsourcing, closure of many institutions, the total ban on creation of posts and recruitment have made regular employment in Central Services impossible. 

The Confederation has therefore, decided to organise the two day strike on 12th and 13th February, 2014. The resolution adopted at the meeting of the National Executive (copy of which is enclosed), explains in detail the major issues.

CGHS Hospitals will stop cashless treatment from 1st Febraury

The 800 hospitals in the country empanelled under the Central Government Health Scheme will stop cashless transactions from February 1, 2014, because, they claim, the government has not cleared arrears of Rs 600 crore.

The aggrieved hospitals have come together under the umbrella of the Association of Healthcare Providers India and had served notice to the CGHS office in New Delhi on December 13, 2013.

A meeting with the Union health secretary K.N. Desiraju on January 9 yielded no results.

A senior officer of AHPI said, “The amount has been budgeted in the health budget and it must be released. But it is not being done. Hence, the question is, where is it going?”

Since 2010, the hospitals have been complaining of 40 per cent unauthorised deductions in the payments. Now they have come together to put across their point to the government.

AHPI general secretary for AP Govind Hari says, “The problem started in 2002 when they started inviting tenders. In doing so, they reduced the cost of surgeries drastically. Also, orthopaedic treatment costs Rs 3,200 in Karnataka and Rs 10,000 in AP. These errors in terms of determining the cost put the hospitals in a spot.”

A senior member of the APHI said, “We want to quit as it has become more of a burden than a service as the clearance promise of 180 days is hardly followed.”

Additional director, CGHS, Dr Prasad, says, “We have not received any communication from the hospitals.” But senior officers in the Begumpet office of the department say there has been an assessment of the pending amount, and deliberations have started to sort out that matter.

PFRDA proposes partial withdrawal to make NPS attractive

Partial withdrawals are currently not allowed under the NPS and a subscriber has to completely exit from the scheme subject to certain conditions on the utilization of the amount.

New Delhi: To make the national pension system (NPS) more attractive, the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has published draft rules that will, if implemented, allow subscribers to withdraw funds partially to meet major expenses such as those related to treatment of certain diseases and education.

Under the proposed guidelines, a subscriber can withdraw as much as 25% of the accumulated funds for marriage of children, purchase of property, higher education and treatment of ailments such as cancer and paralysis.

Partial withdrawals are currently not allowed under the scheme and a subscriber has to completely exit from the scheme subject to certain conditions on the utilization of the amount.

PFRDA administers the NPS for Union and state government employees and the unorganized sector.

The move will make the pension scheme attractive vis-a-vis insurance and the employee provident fund (EPF), where partial withdrawals are possible. The pension scheme for unorganized sector has failed to gain popularity since its launch in May 2009.

The approval of the PFRDA Bill last year by Parliament has paved the way for the restructuring of some of the features of the NPS to make it more attractive. The PFRDA Act, 2013, provides for partial withdrawals, not exceeding 25% of the contribution made by the subscriber.

“This flexibility is positive and will help in increasing the popularity of this scheme,” said Suresh Sadagopan, a certified financial planner at Ladder7 Financial Advisory, a Mumbai-based financial planning firm. “The fact that PFRDA has restricted the withdrawal to 25% of the accumulated amount is also good. Ultimately, it is a scheme meant for retirement savings. If higher withdrawals would have been permitted, the situation would have been a repeat of EPF, where more than 80% of the accounts have less than Rs.20,000 in them.”

The new law also gives the pensions regulator statutory and punitive powers, similar to that of the Securities and Exchange Board of India, the Reserve Bank of India and the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority.

The government is in the process of revamping the pension fund regulator. It is also shortlisting candidates for the post of the chairman of the pension fund regulator and for the posts of three whole-time members. In November, Yogesh Agarwal, chairman of PFRDA, resigned after being prodded by the finance ministry to quit.

Under the proposed draft guidelines, the subscriber should be in NPS for at least 10 years and regularly contribute to the scheme. Also, the subscriber will only be allowed to withdraw for a maximum of three times and that too with a gap of five years between two withdrawals. However, in case of illnesses, the mandatory gap between withdrawals will not apply.

“We are proposing the above frequency in order to make sure that the subscriber should be left with a decent and considerable accumulated pension wealth at the time of superannuation/age of 60 years enabling him to purchase sustainable annuity,” PFRDA said.

According to the current rules, a subscriber can exit the NPS on retirement or on attaining 60 years. In this case, at least 40% of the accumulated funds have to be mandatorily used to purchase an annuity with the balance paid as a lump sum amount. In case the exit is before retirement or before 60 years of age, at least 80% of the funds have to be used for purchase of an annuity and only the balance is paid as a lump sum.

LDC-UDC ISSUE: TOWARDS A FINAL ACTION

LDC-UDC ISSUE: TOWARDS A FINAL ACTION

Dear friends,

It has been informed you through our earlier letters that Confederation had decided to conduct a day long Dharna action at Jantar Mantar Delhi demanding immediate Constitution of 7th Pay Commission, Merger of 50% DA to Basic Pay, Grant of Interim Relief etc. In the mean time we were eager to take up the LDC-UDC issue, which have been raising us for the last two years, in a larger platform and as such representatives of the Union/individual of LDC & UDC in various Departments were requested to come to the Dharna place of the Confederation on 9th January 2014. Prior to this, this Association has published a letter, in response to the comments posted in our web site on the subject, for discussion and finalization of the line of action to be taken to achieve the goal. Being a cadre issue Confederation has not been agreeing to include the LDC-UDC issue in its main charter of demands. But the popularity gained on the issue due to our efforts for quite some time has become a matter of attraction and rethinking by the Confederation also. In such a situation the presence of large number of representative of LDC-UDC in the Dharna would have been beneficial to impress the Confederation to add the demand in the main demands of the Confederation.

LDC-UDC ISSUE-TOWARDS A FINAL ACTION PAPER SUBMITTED IN THE DELHI MEETING

LDC-UDC ISSUE-TOWARDS A FINAL ACTION PAPER SUBMITTED IN THE DELHI MEETING

Dear friends,

This is an assembly of the representatives of deprived & low paid but highly responsible employees in the clerical cadre of category of Group C working in various offices of Government of India offices i.e. LDC & UDC whose cases have been ignored by successive pay commissions and Governments with regard to the payment of equal pay for equal work and genuine promotional avenues. On the other hand, the various Employees Federations in which the Administrative Staff including the LDC & UDC are members in Ministries/Departments of the Government of India have not been taking interest to resolve the issue of LDC & UDC so far and as such the issue could not be highlighted. During the last few months we have done vigorous campaign justifying the higher Grade pay to these sections through the web site www.aiamshq.blogspot.in. The issue has been widely published in various employees’ web sites including Central Government Employees News, gconnect.in etc who have actively supported our endeavor. As a result now the matter has become much popular and more or less all central Government Employees Associations have realized the gravity of the issue. It is to be mentioned here that the Confederation of Central Government Employees & workers has actively supported us to bring the issue before the authorities concerned. The matter was discussed in the Confederation’s National Executive Meeting on several occasions and accordingly the issue was put up as an additional item in the National Anomaly Committee (NAC) meeting in the year 2011. But the item could not be discussed in the NAC so far due to the fact that the Government has differed from their earlier decision of convening a final meeting of NAC to discuss the additional NAC items and the decision of MACP Anomaly Committee.
