In the seventh pay commission’s recommendation there is cited clearly for giving double TA to hearing impaired and defined there about physically handicapped but the expenditure deptt what’s will be doing now. …….. I will filed a case against the expenditure deptt in CAT Principles bench in this regard there is not other way
anirudhmahto says
In the sixth pay commission the expenditure deptt haven’t give the double TA to hearing impaired whereas the proposal was actually accepted by the implementation committee. The expenditure deptt was ordered only for giving double TA to blind and orthpaedically handicapped. It was totally wrong and the deaf and dumb employees welfare association go to the supreme court in this regard and supreme court ordered in WP no 117 of 2011 for giving double TA to deaf and dumb employees . But the deaf (hearing impaired ) haven’t benefited in this matter. Which is totally wrong
anirudhmahto says
The expenditure deptt and the dopt ko ye pata nahin hai ki disability Kya hoti hai . There is clearly defined in service rules and disability act 1995 that the physically handicapped means the blind orthopaedic and the hearing impaired
There isn’t defined the deaf and dumb
anirudhmahto says
Saree hearing impaired are idiot hain CAT principles Bench me double TA nahi dene ke khilaph case karna chahiye against the expenditure department there is not cited anywhere in the supreme court order that deaf Hearing impaired will be not eligible for giving double TA. Deaf and dumb employees means all deaf person and all dumb persons why the expenditure deptt adding and viewing the deaf and dumb employees. There is not cited anywhere in service rules the dumb word but the benefits taking the dumb
anirudhmahto says
