Sir,
I want to know that if we get the arrear of back period i.e. 7th CPC implementing in our organization on March 2018 (14 months arrear). My query is, I had availed LTC & applied for 10 days leave encashment and I got payment according to 6th CPC at that time when in our organisation 7th CPC is not implemented and when 7th CPC applied I had applied for 7th CPC to claim the difference but I didn’t get it. The Account section says that we will not provide that difference due to non availability of circular. So kindly give anyone circular for this so that I can get that difference.
Sir,
During the implementation of 6th CPC the increment date was July & those in whose case the increment in 5th scale was in between 2nd Jan and 30th June were given the benefit of one increment to avoid the loss for more than one year. My joining date was 1st Feb 2007. i.e. in 6 th CPC & according to the prevailing rules, I was not given the same benefit and next increment was given in July,2008 i.e. more than one year. Again in 7th CPC the date of next increments are fixed 1st Jan and 1st June of every year. But what about me and others like me, who are not given the benefit of six month duration. It is not only unjustified but a great loss as compared to the juniors to me who have joined the services after 2nd July then how it is annual increment if given after the period of 17 months( My first increment was given in July 2008 after 17 month on behalf of annual increment and policy of minimum 6 months period from date of joining) but after my joining date being only five months in July 2007 so as per rules of 6 CPC, I was not eligible for taken increment in July 2007. After few months clarification G.O. came for only old employees who was working before of 1st Jan. 2006 but who joined after 1st Jan 2006 they was not eligible for taken this benefit of less than 6 month. I am still suffering
Therefore it is requested to do the needful at the earliest to avoid the injustice.
