1. NJCA INDEFINITE STRIKE DATE AND STRIKE NOTICE SERVING
DATE POSTPONED TO 11TH JULY 2016 & 09TH JUNE

NJCA meeting held at JCM (NC) staff side office on 07th March
2016, after detailed deliberations has decided to postpone the indefinite
strike date of 11th April 2016 and strike notice serving date
of 11th March 2016 to 11th July 2016 and 09th June
2016 respectively. The following are the reasons which necessitated the change
in dates.
a) While summing up the discussion on Charter of
demands held on 1st March 2016 by Empowered Committee of
Secretaries (ECoS) with JCM National Council Standing Committee members,
Cabinet Secretary has stated that reasonable time should be given to the
Government for a fair consideration of all the demands raised in the Charter of
demands, since the issues concern inter-departmental consultations.
b) After declaration of the Election schedule in
five State Assemblies, the Election Code of Conduct has come into effect.
Further there will be polling on 11th April 2016 (strike
commencement date) in West Bengal and Assam.

1947 with regard to the validity of strike notice is not more than six weeks
from the date of serving the strike notice. Even if we give strike notice on 11th March
2016, for commencement of indefinite strike after the election dates (ie 20th May
2016), the six weeks period will be over by that time and we have to serve
fresh strike notice again.
Considering all the above aspects, the meeting took the
following decisions:-
1. The indefinite strike shall commence from 6am
on 11th July 2016.

To
Cabinet Secretary,
Government of India &
Chairman,
National Council/JCM
Subject:- 7th CPC recommendations
and Charter of Demands – Reg.
Dear Sir
Kindly
refer to the NJCA letter dated 10th December 2015 conveying you
the decision of the National Joint Council of Action to go on indefinite strike
in pursuance of the Charter of demands submitted there-with, if no
settlement through bilateral discussions is brought about.
I
am also to invite your kind attention to the discussion the Empowered Committee
of Secretaries chaired by you with Standing Committee of NC of JCM on 1st March
2016 where-in while summing up the discussions on the charter of demands you
assured that a fair consideration would be given on all demands raised by the
Staff Side. It was also stated by you that reasonable time should be given to
the Government since the issues concern inter=departmental consultations.
The NJCA
in its meeting held on 7th March 2016 considered the request
made by you. To give space for negotiated settlement on the charter of demands
raised by the Staff Side it has been decided to defer the commencement of the
indefinite strike to 11th July 2016 and to serve the strike
notice on 9th June 2016, if the desired settlement through
bilateral discussions is not brought about.
It is requested that in the intervening period the Government may hold
meaningful negotiation with the Staff Side, JCM so that a settlement could be
reached on the Charter of demands raised by the staff side, in the interest of
industrial harmony.

To
All
Constituents of NJCA
Dear Comrade,
The
NJCA met today and reviewed the discussion in the meeting of Empowered
Committee of Secretaries presided by the Cabinet Secretary on 1st March
2016 where-in the Cabinet Secretary had requested for more time to arrive at
conclusions on the charter of demands raised by the Staff Side.
The meeting also considered the situation in the aftermath of the
coming into effect of the Code of Conduct with the declaration of election
schedule in 5 State Assemblies and the fact that there will be polling on 11th April
2016 in West Bengal and Assam.
The meeting, therefore, came to the conclusion that it will not
be feasible for us to stick to the date of strike as 11th April
2016. Considering the fact that as per section 22 of the Industrial Dispute
Act, 1947 with regard to the validity of the strike notice which is not more
than six weeks from the date of serving the strike notice, it was also felt
that we may have to revisit the issue of serving the notice for strike afresh.
Considering all the above aspects, the meeting took the following decisions”
1. The indefinite strike shall commence from 6 am on 11th July
2016
2. The strike Notice would be served on 9th June
2016.
3. Massive demonstrations shall be held in all work place on 11th March
2016 in support of the charter of demands and strike decision.
4. The decision of the NJCA would be communicated to the Cabinet
Secretary.
Detailed mobilization
programmes would be given later on.
With greetings
Yours faithfully,
