A report in Times of India states that the VII Central Pay Commission may submit its report by end of November 2015 and that it may recommend 15 % increase in pay.
This is unacceptable to the employees. 15% increase in 10 years since 2006 means only 1.5% in a year, which is far below the growth in GDP as also far less than the increase given to PSUs. More than 15% increase has been granted to PSUs with 5 year wage revision, which comes to about 30% in
10 years.
The CG employees are already in the war path with a massive dharna on 19 November 2015.

Com. Ram Naresh Prasad, Dist. Secretary, BSNLEU, Jamshedpur has been compulsorily retired on the basis of false charges by the Sr.GM Jamshedpur. It is a vengeance against the Dist. Secretary for taking up the genuine issue of employees as well as the exploitation of the casual and contract workers.
We strongly condemn the vengeful act and demand that the official be reinstated. It is to be remembered that the Sr.GM B.N.Singh was transferred from Bongaigaon (Assam) to Jamshedpur after several complaints were found against him. We demand that he should be transferred from Jamshedpur.

SOLIDARITY WITH THE PEOPLE OF FRANCE
The World Federation of Trade Unions (WFTU) denounces the terrorist attacks in Paris that resulted in many innocent people, many ordinary people losing their lives. To the working class and the people of France, we express our condolences. From history, we know that terrorist attacks like last night’s in Paris are utilized by the imperialist mechanism, so they can take new antidemocratic measures against the people. To all the workers of France, to all the affiliates and friends of the WFTU, we assure them that we are standing by them during these difficult and dramatic moments. They should know that they are not alone. Our thoughts and our internationalist solidarity are with them.
