The policy and programme resolution adopted by the 46th Conference stated: ".

In the light of the sanction from the 46th Conference, the National Executive Committee meeting decided to avail the legal recourse on certain issues where discussions have reached a dead end and scope for mass action is limited. The NE meeting decided to take up the issue of anomaly in the pay of direct recruitee vis-à-vis promotee as a priority one. Further details shall be intimated, including financial aspect of pursuing the legal option, in due course. It was decided to file the case in the Principal CAT, New Delhi.

 

It was also decided that the anomaly in the pay of AAOs of those who joined on or after 1st Jan 2006 vis-à-vis those joined or promoted before 1st Jan 2006 is also to be explored for legal recourse. There may be a situation in other cadres also, but because of lack of direct recruitment during the period, number of cases may be limited. Units may kindly intimate HQr if such cases do exist or not.

 

With greetings,

Yours fraternally
