National Council JCM Staff Side Meeting Will Be Held Tomorrow
Much Anticipated National Council JCM Staff Side Meeting Tomorrow
The National Council JCM Staff Side meeting is going to take place tomorrow in New Delhi. The meeting, to be attended by the representatives of all federations, will be chaired by the Staff Side Secretary, Shiva Gopal Mishra.
Important agendas of the meeting include demanding a change in the attitude of the Central Government towards the Central Government employees, merger of DA, granting interim relief and to hold discussions over the date of effect of the recommendations of the 7th CPC.
In the past, interim relief was granted before the recommendations of the new Pay Commissions were implemented. In the Fifth Pay Commission, it was recommended that whenever the DA crosses 50%, it should be added to the basic pay. The recommendation was accepted and in the year 2004, a 50% DA hike was added to the basic pay of all Central Government employees. Therefore, interim relief was not granted during the 6th Pay Commission.
There were also a number of confusions in the tenure of the Pay Commission, which had to be constituted once every ten years. One Pay Commission was almost lost, as a result. To make up for these errors, a demand has been presented to implement the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission from January 1, 2014 onwards.
Members of the National Council JCM Staff Side, including Mr, C. Srikumar, Mr. S.N. pathak, Mr. J.R. Bhonsale, Mr Raj Gopal and the association president, Mr. M Raghaviah, attended the meeting that was held on September 14, 2014 at AIRF office, under the leadership of Staff Side Secretary, Shiva Gopal Mishra, and presented their views. It was decided at the meeting that further debates will be conducted on important issues and decisions will be made on 12.10.2014.
Tomorrow’s meeting attains prominence due to the fact that representatives of all the employee associations are going to participate and debate over some of the most eagerly awaited issues.
