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

Prime Minister of India

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
