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.
