LDC-UDC Grade Pay Issue – Demanding upgradation of the grade pay of LDC & UDC

DEPARTMENT OF EXPENDITURE DIRECTS THE MINISTRY OF STATISTICS & PROGRAMME IMPLEMENTATION TO SEND PROPOSAL FOR UP-GRADATION OF GRADE PAY OF LDC & UDC TO THEM

Dear members/friends,

Department of Expenditure (DoE) vide OM No. 58(2)/E.III(B)/2014 dated 18th February, 2014(enclosed) has forwarded the letter/documents demanding upgradation of the grade pay of LDC & UDC to Rs. 2400 & 2800 respectively, to the Financial Adviser, Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation(MoS&PI) with a direction to examine the representations and forwarding the same to DoE for consideration in the form of a proposal, through IFD. In this respect, this Association has already made it clear that the LDC & UDC issue is a clear anomaly aroused due to the discriminatory recommendation/implementation of the 6th Pay Commission and the same is to be rectified as an anomaly and not as a cadre restructuring. As has already informed you that this Association has decided to file a case in the CAT by 1st week of March for getting implemented the upgradation from the date of implementation of the 6th CPC and the preparation for the same is in full swing. However, since the DoE has directed the MoS&PI in favour of upgradation of Grade Pay of LDC and UDC, a letter demanding implementation of the upgradation from 1.1.2006 is being sent to the Joint Secretary, MoS&PI before filing the case.

Yours Sincerely

Central Government should pay the dearness allowance of state government employees as well – Mamata Banerjee

Central Government should pay the dearness allowance of state government employees as well – Mamata Banerjee

W.B Government Employees would be able to avail themselves of cashless hospitalisation facility of up to Rs 1 lakh

Centre should come forward and pay the dearness allowance of state government employees as well, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee demanded today.

“Whenever the Centre announces DA, state government employees should be given the same on a par (with central government employees).

“They (Centre) give it (to central government employees) before elections. Will others (state government employees) suck their thumbs?” Banerjee asked.

“We want the Centre to pay the DA for (state government) employees,” Banerjee said. She added that paying DA cost Rs 6,900 crore to the state exchequer.

“How will we be able to afford it when the central government is taking all the money from us?” she asked.

Speaking at a convention of state government employees organised under the banner of the Paschimbanga Sarkari Karmachari Federation, Banerjee said the matter had also been taken up with the Finance Commission.

She reiterated her charge that the Union government had stopped funds for various central schemes like Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana and the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme.

“There should be a tax for those who lie,” she said.

She also added that restructuring should be done for the interest on loans taken from the Centre by the previous Left Front government.

“Why should we pay for the faults of CPI(M)?” she asked. Criticising the Left-affiliated coordination committee of state government employees, Banerjee said the body should now be dismantled as it did no work.

“They have no work besides criticising others. They are shameless. They did no work for the last 34 years and now, too, are not working,” she said while adding that such employees were holding up various files.

She, meanwhile, announced that housing loans would be restarted for the welfare of employees. Rs 100 crore has been earmarked for the same under a scheme entitled ‘Akanksha’.

A health scheme has also been extended for another two years under which government employees would be able to avail themselves of cashless hospitalisation facility of up to Rs 1 lakh.

“We have added new hospitals to the list and also (expanded the disease cover),” Banerjee said.

As to contractual employees, she said none would lose jobs but, due
