Respected Sir,

            I request your kind attention to the letters cited above on the issue of granting Gr. B (Non-Gazetted) status to the Senior Accountants cadre. This issue is pending for more than one year and due to this inordinate delay many problems have been cropped up in the units. For example in the units like Cuttuck and Hyderabad, LTC bills and CGEGIS payments in respect of diseased officials were kept pending.

            It is submitted that the DOP&T with the notification under reference 1 has already classified all the civil posts under the Union and the posts carrying the grade pay of Rs. 4200 has been accorded the status of Gr.B. Acting on this DOP has issued orders classifying the post of Senior Accountant and HSG I posts as Group-B (Non-Gazetted). But the issue is still under consideration of the PA Wing, even after lapse of one year. This Association has already submitted that there is only a broad parity among the cadres in the Organised Accounts Departments and they are not equal in all respects. Hence, I request you to kindly issue orders granting Gr. B status(Non-Gazetted) to the Senior Accountants working in PAOs and end the confusion in the field units. Immediate action in this regard is requested.

With Regards,

Yours faithfully,

(T.SATYANARAYANA)

General Secretary.
