Forum, JAC, NFTE

In the website of the NFTE  it is published on 27-05-2016 as follows: “ NFTE’s participation in JAC and Forum of BSNL unions and associations will remain suspended till holding of National Executive meeting of NFTE.”

We do not know what is the reason behind such a decision. However, we hope that the NFTE National Executive will take a positive decision to continue with Forum and JAC and participate in the struggles of the BSNL employees for the revival of BSNL and for the demands of the BSNL employees.

Meeting of NJAC with Cabinet Secretary on VII CPC Recommendations

31 Tuesday May 2016

Posted by VAN NAMBOODIRI in CG Employees, VII CPC

≈ Leave a comment

Leaders of the National joint Action Council Coms. Shiv Gopal Mishra, K.K.N.Kutty etc. met Cabinet Secretary P.K.Mishra on 26-05-2016 and discussed about the recommendations of the VII CPC and the demands of the employees. Except that a slight increase in the minimum wage is being considered, there is no positive decision conveyed by the Cabinet Secretary. Even the recommendation of the VII CPC for parity of the earlier pensioners with present pensioners (one rank one pension) has not been decided by the government.

In such a situation, the NJAC has decided to meet on 3rd June 2016 to discuss about future course of action.

Latest Position of Pensioners issues- NCCPA Circular

Circular, NCCPA

NATIONAL CO-ORDINATION COMMITTEE OF PENSIONERS ASSOCIATIONS.

13/c  Feroze shah  Road,
 New Delhi. 110 001
Dated: 30.5.2016
Website: www.nccpahq.blogspot.com
Email. nccpahq@gmail.com
Dear Comrades,
                We send herewith a copy of the NJCA Circular letter dated 27th May, 2016.  The same is self-explanatory.  You could see there-from that the  Government might not positively react to the demands placed by the NJCA over the recommendations of the 7th CPC.  Simply raising the minimum wage by a few rupees without any consequential change in the fitment formula or pay matrix will not bring about any tangible benefit. The revision of the minimum wage along would benefit only those who are likely to be recruited to the cadre of MTS in future.  As you are aware, the 7th CPC had not accepted any demand of the employees.  It is beset with dissenting notes in many chapters.  The fight between the personnel in the organized Group  A Services and all India Services had triggered such dissenting note on the part of the Member who retired from the IAS.  A significant section of the Secretaries to various Departments, we were told, were against any revision over the recommendations of the 7th CPC.  In any case, we are to await the outcome of the discussions at the NJCA meeting scheduled to be held on 3rd June, at New Delhi.
                 Coming to the issues pertaining to the Pensioners, we must recall that the 7th CPC had rejected almost all the demands unanimously placed before them by the Pensioners organizations. While tendering oral evidence the Staff Side had inter alia pressed for the parity for the past pensioners before the Commission, especially in the background of the granting of one rank one pension to the Defence Personnel.  It is ironic to note that the Defence Ministry which had piloted the demand of the Ex-service men for one rank one pension i.e.parity between the past and present pensioners has now taken a stand against such parity for civil servants.  No personnel either in the organized Group A services or All India Services would stand benefited by the present recommendation of the 7th CPC except a few as most of them were in receipt of almost time bound promotion in their career.  The modified parity one must recall has only benefited the upper echelons in the bureaucracy.  One can understand that the Govt. refusing to make improvements over the suggestion made by a Commission.  But it must be most intolerable when the Govt. refuses to implement a recommendation which was the outcome of a persistent presentation jointly by almost all the beneficiaries.  The plea advanced for non acceptance of the recommendation is the alleged impracticability due to the non availability of the relevant records.  Should the pensioner suffer for the reason that the concerned department of the Government has not kept the records properly? It is the most callous approach and must be resisted with all the force that we can command. We cannot afford to have this situation to develop. We are certain that most of the individual pensioners would be able to provide the requisite information needed to consider the first option in the pension fixation to the concerned department and most of the Departments would be able to verify the same with the available documents with them.  We must however await the decision of the NJCA in the matter.
                In the meantime, all affiliates will take such action needed to mobilize the pensioners and undertake a serious educational campaign.
                With greetings,
Yours fraternally,
KKN.Kutty.
Secretary General.

Women have equal right to enter temples.

29 Sunday May 2016

Posted by VAN NAMBOODIRI in General

≈ Leave a comment

Denial of  women from entering Sabarimalai temple is gross discrimination. The temple authorities and the government should accept the right of the women to enter SabariMalai or any other temple. Constitution provides equal right for men and women in such cases. The LDF government has to act to end this injustice to women.

Stop these attacks on Africans

29 Sunday May 2016

Posted by VAN NAMBOODIRI in General

≈ Leave a comment

Three-four incidents of assaulting African nationals have been reported from Delhi in the last few days. In one case a Congolese  was beaten to death. The assaulted include a priest and citizens of Uganda and South Africa.

Whether it is racial attack or otherwise, such attacks and assaults on foreign nationals should be seriously dealt with and the culprits punished. But the Delhi Police and the government of India are considering these as minor incidents and dealt with as such.

The government should understand that such assaults on foreign nationals have serious implications. If not dealt with strongly, such incidents may increase. Relation with the foreign governments will deteriorate.

Government should act immediately and sternly.
