Contempt case at Hon Delhi High Court on ITS deputation:

The case was listed for hearing today. In the contempt matter, DoT submitted an undertaking to the Hon Court to correct its earlier order and implementing the judgment in a phased manner. Full details of the submission will be received by evening from our lawyer. We opposed the proposal and informed the Hon court that the rights of the absorbed officers and employees are affected due to the continuation of the unabsorbed officers in BSNL. The Hon HC judgment has to be implemented in letter and spirit. Hon HC posted the matter to 31.07.2015, after the vaccation giving another opportunity to the Govt to comply with the original order.

BSNL Casual and Contract Workers Federation has addressed a letter to Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi informing him about the wage slavery of the BSNL Contract Workers in UP and especially in Varanasi, the constituency from which he has been elected. Only Rs. 1500 – 3000 are paid where as they are eligible at least about Rs. 7,000/- at the lowest. BSNLCCWF has requested the PM to look in to the matter and ensure implementation of minimum wage, EPF, ESI etc.

Will the Prime Minister or his Office have time to mete out justice to the hard working casual contract workers?

One more attack against a North East young man, this time at Gurgaon. Delhi is witnessing such racist  incidents now and then. North East residents are also Indian citizens and can not be discriminated or harassed.

End these attacks. The Government should take strong action against the culprits.

It is difficult to find a real karma yogi like Comrade M.K.Kelu, who every body, including Com. EMS called ‘Keluettan’ with respect. Entire life of Keluettan was spent for serving the toiling masses and the poor. There may be very less people like him, who had to face brutal police atrocities and murderous beatings. He was unmarried, simple in habits, Party Office was his home and all were his friends and comrades. He was always in front of the struggles. He was courageous to face any situation.

I had been lucky to get his advice and guidance, while I was at Calicut and he was the District Secretary of the CPI(M). I got inspiration from him for my trade union work. At all times when we were in trouble, he was there to save us.

On his 24th death anniversary on 20th May 2015, I pay my respectful Homage to Com. Keluettan!

Red Salute and a bouquet of Red Roses to his memory!

20th May 1498 – The day and visit that was the starting point of imperialism.

170px-VascodagamaVasco da Gama’s arrival at Calicut on 20th May 1498 was the starting point which helped the European powers like Portuguese, French and English colonialists to capture India bit by bit. Those who came in the guise of merchants, became the masters within two centuries. India changed in to a colony of the British – its biggest colony by the 18th century.

The sustained struggle for Independence and the favourable situation after the II World War saw India winning Independence of 15th August 1947.

The European powers consider the landing of Vasco da Gama a great day. But for India it was the starting point of losing their freedom.

 

Central Government should declare Merger of DA and Interim Relief for employees

The DA for the Central Government employees has reached 113% of their pay. It has been the practice that, when the DA increases more than 50%, it should be merged with pay so that the workers will not be losing much due to the increase in the cost of living.

Though the VII Central Pay Commission has been appointed, the terms of reference given to CPC do not include DA Merger and hence the CPC is denying to give any recommendation in the matter.

As such, it is incumbent on the government to declare DA merger at least to 100% with out any further delay.
