Dear Comrades,
The Joint Council of Action (JCA), the joint platform of movement comprising of the Income Tax Employees’ Federation and Income Tax Gazetted Officers’ Association representing 97% of the entire workforce in the Income Tax Department, embarked upon the path of agitation in the following 5(five) point Charter of Demands:
1. Promotions in the cadre of ACIT, for all regular and CRC vacancies and upto the R.Y.2015-16, are to be given immediately. DPCs for R.Y. 2015-16 in all cadres by the respective Pr. CCsIT are to be conducted immediately.
2. Provide Infrastructure facility to all Officers and Officials i.e. ample space with modern furniture, Computers with nodes, etc.
3. Steps to be taken to fill up all vacant posts immediately to stop outsourcing of regular office work/data entry work.
4. To regularise all Casual/Daily paid workers against MTS posts, who are completing 10 years as on date in our Department.
5. Finalise and notify all Recruitment Rules of Group B & C officials immediately.
These very issues were discussed and pursued for months together with the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT). The deadlines were set innumerable times by the authority, even in the official meetings, to settle the issues but none of these were adhered to.
The Central JCA had finalized the 5(five) point Charter of Demand in its meeting dated 12-08-2015 and submitted it to the CBDT on 17-08-2015. In pursuance of the above-mentioned demands, the JCA launched a nation-wide agitation programme from 09-09-2015. The details of the programme chalked-out by the JCA are as follows:
1. Lunch-hour demonstration held on 09-09-2015 in all Pr. CCIT and other CCIT/CIT offices nation-wide and the Notice for a day’s Strike on 08-10-2015 served on the CBDT. Copy of the strike notice served by the state units to the Pr.CCsIT.
The non-cooperation movement started from 09-09-2015 itself in the following manner:
i) Stoppage of work relating to widening of tax-base.
ii) No work relating to I & CI job like uploading of CIB data, disposal of verification cases, etc.
iii) Artificial deadlines for completion of scrutiny assessments not adhered to.
2. Black-flag Demonstration before the Chairperson and Members of CBDT on their visit in any office outside the North Block.
3. Day-long Dharna in front of all Pr.CCIT and other CCIT/CIT offices held on 15-09-2015.
4. Nation-wide Press-conference convened on 23-09-2015.
5. Half-day walk-out from 2.00 PM on 01-10-2015.
6. Strike action on 8th October, Thursday, 2015.
It has also been decided to intensify the agitation after 08-10-2015 if any respectable settlement is not reached by then.
The members of JCA in all 18 regions of Income Tax all over India ensured a 100% participation in the programme of agitation.
The Joint Council of Action (JCA) of the Income Tax Employees’ Federation and Income Tax Gazetted Officers’ Association requests the Confederation of Central Govt. Employees and Workers and the Confederation of Central Govt. Gazetted Officers’ Organisations and its affiliates to express solidarity to the Nation-wide Strike Action in the cause of the Income Tax employees and Officers scheduled to be held on 08-10-2015.
Thanking you,
Yours comradely,
