Dear Comrades,

Parliament March and came to the conclusion that inspite of cancellation and
delayed running of Trains due to adverse weather conditions and also the havoc
unleashed by the Cyclone in Tamilnadu, the March and Rally was an unprecedented
success and impressive. (Report enclosed).

decided to implement the strike decision in a most successful manner. The
following decisions are taken for making the strike a grand success.

Secretariat members shall undertake campaign programme and address meetings in
all states. (Campaign programme will be published in website within two days)

notice should be served on 28.12.2016 (28th December 2016 Wednesday) to Government and to all the Departmental heads. On that day demonstrations should be
organized in front of all offices. Copy of the strike notice may be submitted
to all lower level authorities also. (Model copy of the strike notice and
charter of demands enclosed. Necessary modifications may be made in the strike
notice). In

ONE DAY
STRIKE ON 15TH FEBRUARY 2017
· AGAINST
THE BREACH OF ASSURANCE AND BETRAYAL BY GROUP OF MINISTERS OF NDA GOVERNMENT.
· TO
UPHOLD THE SELF-RESPECT AND DIGNITY OF 33 LAKHS CENTRAL GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES
AND 34 LAKHS PENSIONERS.
ABOUT 15
LAKHS CENTRAL GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES AND AUTONOMOUS BODY EMPLOYEES WILL
PARTICIPATE IN THE STRIKE
v Central Government employees and Pensioners
betrayed by NDA Govt. by breach of assurance given by Group of Cabinet
Ministers including Shri Rajnath Singh, Shiri Arun Jaitely and Shri Suresh
Prabhu regarding increase in Minimum Pay and Fitment formula. This is the worst
pay revision after 2nd CPC report in 1960. Government implemented the
report without any modification suggested by Staff side (JCM). In 1960 entire
employees went on five days strike.
v Central Government Pensioners and Family
Pensioners betrayed by NDA Government by not implementing Option-I (parity)
recommended by 7th CPC and accepted by Cabinet.
v Autonomous bodies employees betrayed by NDA
Government by issuing instructions NOT TO IMPLEMENT 7th CPC benefits to Autonomous body employees and Pensioners UNTIL
FURTHER ORDERS.
v Three lakhs Gramin Dak Sevaks of the Postal
Department betrayed by NDA Government by not extending the benefits of 7th CPC to them and also by not publishing the separate one-man
committee report already submitted to the Government.
v Thousands of Casual, Part-time, contingent
employees, daily rated mazdoors and contract workers are betrayed by the NDA
Government by not regularizing their services and by not revising their wages
on the principle of “Equal Pay for Equal Work”.
v 7th CPC Submitted its report after 21 months on 19th November 2015. Even after 13 months the NDA Government has not
implemented the revised HRA, Transport Allowance and all other Allowances.
Government is deliberately delaying it further to deny implementation from
01.01.2016 and also to delay it to next Financial year 2017, thereby denying
arrears.
v Government betrayed Central Government
employees and Pensioners by denying eligible 3% Dearness Allownace with effect
from 01.07.2016. DA for pre-revised Minimum pay of 7000 is 7% = 490 per month.
Same pre-revised pay of 7000 revised to 18000 after merger of 125% DA as on
01.01.2016. New DA granted for revised minimum pay of 18000 is 2% = 360 per
month. Thus there is a recurring loss of Rs. 130/- per month in DA granted to
Minimum pay. For other higher pay scales the loss is still higher.
v In the past, only one Committee before
implementation of CPC report and one Anomaly Committed after implementation was
constituted. This time Committee after Committees are constituted but no
negotiated settlement with the JCM (NC) staff side on any of the issue, but
only one-way hearing of the views of the staff side. Implementation Committee,
Empowered Committee, Allowances Committee, Pension (Option-1) Committee,
Anomaly Committee, New Pension System (NPS) Committee and Senior officers
Committee (?) to discuss the issues arising out of 7th CPC recommendations. (No formal orders constituting the Group of
Senior Offices Committee and no terms of reference made public). Almost six
months are over after Cabinet approving pay scales and one year is over after
submission of 7th CPC report, but no outcome of any committee).
v No negotiated settlement on Confederation’s 21
Point Charter of demands which includes increase in minimum pay, Fitment
formula, no reduction of HRA rate, Revision of all allowances, Restoration of
abolished Advances, Option-1 for pensioners, Scrap New Pension System,
Autonomous bodies wage revision, GDS Issues, Casual Labour issues, MACP
promotional hierarchy and “Very good” bench mark, filling up of vacancies,
removal of 5% compassionate appointment restriction, Five promotions, LDC/UDC
pay upgradation, Parity in pay scales with Central Secretariat Staff, removal
of CCL adverse condition, equal pay for equal work etc.
WHAT
HAPPENED ON 30TH JUNE 2016?
AND WHO
BETRAYED THE EMPLOYEES AND PENSIONERS?
On the night of 30th June 2016, Shri Suresh Prabhu, Hon’ble Minister for Railways
informed the Secretary, JCM (NC) Staff side Shri Shiv Gopal Misra that the Prime Minister had empowered three Cabinet Ministers, viz: Shri Rajnath Singh, Hon’ble Home
Minister, Shri Arun Jaitely, Hon’ble Fiance Minister and Shri Suresh Prabhakar
Prabhu, Hon’ble Railways Minister, to negotiate with the staff side, JCM (NC),
and invited staff side (JCM) for a meeting at the Official residence of Shri
Rajnath Singh, Hon’ble Home Minister on the same night 21:30 hrs. On persistent
demand of the staff side (JCM), the Group of Ministers assured that the issue of
increase in the Minimum wage and Fitment formula will be referred to a High
Level Committee and the Committee will submit its report to the Government
within four months.
NOW SIX
MONTH’S ARE ALMOST OVER.
WHERE IS
THE HIGH LEVEL COMMITTEE REPORT?
CHEATING……………….CHEATING…………………..
CHEATING
WHEN
CABINET MINISTERS BETRAY, WHAT SHOULD WE DO?
STRIKE…………….STRIKE………………..
STRIKE
Strike is
the only BEFITTING REPLY to those who betrayed the cause of the Central
Government employees and pensioners.
We
cannot go on begging before the NDA Government.
WORKERS
ARE NOT BEGGERS.
Let us
make the 15th February
2017 one day strike
A
resounding success.
Let us
not surrender our prestige and self-respect
Before
those who betrayed our cause.
Fraternally
yours,
