MAKE THE DEMONSTRATIONS ON 29-04-2013 A GRAND SUCCESS
Comrades, campaign extensively to make the demonstrations on 29-04-2013 demanding the constitution of 7th Central Pay Commission and withdrawal of bill on New Pension. The below given material can be used to print the hand bill to distribute among our members. It can also be translated into the local language.
Dear Comrades,
As you are aware,
the Government of India replied to a question raised in the Parliament has
stated that setting up of 7th Central Pay
Commission for effecting wage revision of Central Government Employees is not
presently under its consideration. In the past when we demanded the appointment
of 6th CPC in the year 2005, a similar statement was
made by the then Finance Minister. But the joint movement of Central Government
Employees for which we created the platform of Steering Committee of the JCM
under the leadership of late Com. J.P. Chaubey, the then General Secretary of
All India Railwaymen Federation could achieve the demand and the 6th
CPC was announced.
The real value of
wage determined by the 6th CPC has now been eroded
to the extent of above
100% due to unprecedented inflation in the economy and spiraling rise in the
prices of essential commodities. While the Government permits wage negotiations
and revision in the fully owned Public Sector Undertakings every 5 years, the
denial to revise the wages of Central Government Employees despite such large
scale erosion in the real value of wages is absolutely unjustified. Besides the
above stated reasons the large scale anomalies created by the 6th
CPC pay structure also justifies our demand for the immediate constitution of 7th
CPC.
The Government had
been persisting with enactment of the PFRDA Bill in the Parliament in almost
all sessions ever since the UPA-II Government took over. Ironically they could
elicit support from the main Opposition Party in the country for this ill
advised enactment. Lakhs of new workers who have joined in various Organisations
of the Government since 2004 are worried of their future, which is forlorn and
bleak, in the wake of the denial of an age old social security scheme of Pension.
We have been together opposing this move right from the day the NDA Government introduced
the bill in the Parliament in 2003. However our efforts, actions and objections
have all been ignored with disdain by the Government. Though they could not
muster enough support required to pass the bill in the Parliament, the Union
Cabinet has recently taken the decision to allow 49% FDI in the Pension Fund.
In the prevailing
situation, it is very much required to channelize our efforts through a wider platform
of Unity. After the successful one day nationwide
strike on 12-12-12 by the Confederation of Central Government Employees and 48
hours strike in the month of February 2013 by the entirety of Indian working
class, the momentum for such a united action to achieve the 7th CPC
and protect the Right to Pension picked up fast. Confederation of Central
Government Employees, All India Railwaymen Federation and All India Defence
Employees Federation came together and initiated such united and joint action
by giving a call to hold nationwide demonstrations on 29-04-2013 and issue
telegrams to the Honourable Prime Minister of India urging to settle our
demands. Join this protest in a big way. Register the strong resentment over
the injustice. Express collective intent
to achieve the genuine and justified demands. Show the united determination to ward
off the assault on our hard earned Rights, including the Right to Pension.

DELAY IN ANNOUNCEMENT OF
DA CONDUCT NATIONWIDE DEMONSTRATIONS ON 23rd APRIL-2013.
CONFEDERATION
CALLS FOR A STRONG PROTEST AGAINST THE INORDINATE DELAY IN GRANTING 8% DA TO CG
EMPLOYEES BY GOVERNMENT
No. Conf/27 /2013
Dated
17th April 2013
Comrades,
DELAY IN GRANT OF DA - HOLD PROTEST DEMONSTRATION ON 23RD APRIL
2013
Since
the implementation of the recommendations of the 4th Central
Pay Commission in 1986, the Dearness Allowance (DA) is paid in two six-monthly
installments – in March and September of every year. The practice followed
since then is that the order granting DA to government employees is issued in
March and September itself.
This
time the practice in force since 1986 is violated. Our enquiries with concerned
Ministries informed us that the file is already moved for Cabinet approval. But
it is nearly a month now. The Cabinet has found no time to take a decision on
this.
This
naturally is quiet disturbing, especially in the time of galloping price line.
The employees have, in the past, fought bitterly for grant of DA and the 3rd CPC
gave a definite formula for DA in the aftermath of the one day strike on 19th September
1968. We cannot allow the hard won DA to be tampered with.
Confederation
has written to Prime Minister conveying the disquiet amongst the
employees over the inordinate delay in the grant of additional installment of
DA due from 1st January 2013 and urging the Prime Minister to
take immediate steps to assuage the feelings of the employees. Copy of the
letter is given along with this Circular.
The
Secretariat of Confederation therefore calls upon every affiliate as well as
State Committee of Confederation to organise lunch hour demonstration in the
work place on 23rd April 2013, Tuesday and send the following
telegram to the Prime Minister of India.
TEXT OF TELEGRAM: EMPLOYEES AGITATED OVER
DELAY IN GRANT OF DA, URGE TO EXPEDITE ISSUANCE OF ORDERS.
Each
affiliate and State Committee of Confederation may send a detailed report on
implementation of the programme in their organisation/State to the
Confederation CHQ.
With
greetings
Yours
fraternally

Manmohan Singh,
Hon'ble
Prime Minister of India
South

Sir,
Subject: Grant of Dearness Allowance to Central Govt
Employees and Officers – Reg.
I
am to invite your kind attention to the delay in the grant of additional
installment of Dearness Allowance to Central Government employees and officers
and the consternation it is causing amongst the employees.
It
would be apt to point out here that since the implementation of the 4th CPC
recommendations with effect from 1st January 1986, the Dearness
Allowance is paid to Central Government employees in two six monthly
installments – along with the salary for March and September every year. The 5th and
6th CPCs also recommended the same principle for payment of
additional installments of DA and since then the order granting additional
installment of Dearness Allowance is being issued well in advance honouring the
recommendations.
The
Central Government Employees were expecting the announcement of grant of
additional installment of Dearness Allowance (8 % with effect from 1st January
2013) and Office Memorandum on that in the month of March 2013 itself. The
delay of more than a month has led to disquiet amongst the employees.
I
shall be thankful if the fears of the central government of employees are
allayed by immediately releasing the additional installment of Dearness
Allowance with effect from 1st January 2013 without any further
delay.
Thanking
you in anticipation,
Yours
faithfully
Sd/-
