                  Conveners, local JACs

Dear Comrades,

                  The apex JAC met on 9^th April 2014 to review the programme of Joint Dharna on 26^th March 2014. Com. S. K. Vyas, Adviser, Confederation of Central Government Employees and Workers’, Com. V. Bhattacharjee, Convener, Apex JAC and Secretary General National Federation of Civil Accounts Associations, Com. T. Satnarayana, General Secretary, All India Postal Accounts Employees Association, Com. A. K. Mehta, President, All India Civil Accounts Employees Association Category-II and Com. S.S. Chauhan, President, All India Association of Pay and Accounts Officers (Civil) along with Shri R. K. Gupta, Joint Secretary General of His organization attended the meeting. Com. M. S. Raja, Chairman, apex JAC and Secretary General All India Audit and Accounts Association could not attend the meeting due to ill health. 

Com.T. Satyanarayana, General Secretary, All India Postal Accounts Employees Association presided over the meeting. It was observed that, the programme of joint Dharna by local JACs on 26th March 2014 has been observed widely at several places. The meeting felt that there is a need to educate the mass of employees about the demands which the apex level JAC has adopted so that in future total participation of the members could be ensured in the programmes. Since the common demands of Stenographers/PAs/Sr.PAs are not there in the charter of demands, it has been decided to incorporate the same and constituents of apex JAC has been requested to send their proposals in this respect. As regards DEOs the situation in different constituents being different, it was decided at the very initial stage that, the demands of this cadre should be dealt by the constituents departmentally. With this object in view, the meeting has decided that the “signature Campaign” may be launched during the month of April & May 2014 on a brief memorandum listing all the demands and with a request that these demands should be settled at the earliest.

                  The memorandum is annexed to this circular. Signatures may be obtained in this memorandum in duplicate. One copy may be sent to the Prime Minister and another copy may be forwarded to the headquarters of apex JAC under intimation to headquarters of respective All India Associations. The signatures will be taken by local units under overall co-ordination of local JACs and each and every member may be approached individually for signature. It should be ensured that all the members sign it latest by 31^st May 2014.

                  The apex JAC will finalise a tour programme during the months April, May & June 2014 in consultation with the Chief Executives of constituents of apex JAC  so that local JACs are revitalised and start functioning.

With greetings,

Yours fraternally, 

(V. Bhattacharjee)

            It has been decided in the meeting of the National Anomaly Committee that these demands may be discussed by Joint Secretary, Estt (DOPT) and Joint Secretary, Personnel (Department of Expenditure).  Twice the Joint Secretary, Personnel has informally met the members of the staff side.  Last meeting was held on 14.02.2014. But this Sub-committee consisting of Joint Secretary, Personnel is yet to have first formal meeting to discuss these demands and to settle them.

            We therefore, request you to direct these officers to have early discussion with the staff side members with a view to settle these demands without further delay.

Yours Faithfully,
