Chief Executives of
Constituent Organisations &
Conveners, Local JACs
Dear Comrades,
At the very outset, wish you all a very happy and prosperous New Year
2011. Our New Year resolution should be, on priority, getting the
resolution on rejection of arbitration award on grant of parity in pay
scale with central secretariat called back from Parliament and getting
the award implemented.
Reports receiving from the field formations of the constituent
organisations indicate that the non implementation of the award and
the move of the government to reject it is not generating sanction –
and hence action – as it should. Many reasons are cited by many a
comrades. The common refrain is that the direct beneficiaries of the
arbitration award who are still in service are getting dwindled day by
day.
There is a failure on the part of the leadership in educating the
mass of employees on the adverse impact of the rejection of the
arbitration award on grant of parity in pay scale with central
secretariat.
One should remember that irreparable damage has already been caused
to our demand for parity in pay scale with Assistants of CSS by the
simple action of certain misguided colleagues knocking the doors of
judiciary and the Supreme Court knocking out the demand in the
expected lines.
The sixth CPC has also not done what was expected of it – stating
that, relying on the Supreme Court judgement rejecting the parity with
Assistants of CSS, parity has never been accepted by the government.
Though the SCPC gave the same grade pay to both SAs and Assistants,
the Assistants have again manipulated to be at a higher grade pay,
against the very recommendation of the SCPC.
The award given by the Central Board of arbitration in 2004 granting
parity in Pay scale to SAs of Audit & Accounts with Assistants of CSS
from 1.1.1986 is the basis for the demand of audit and accounts
fraternity for the parity with Assistants of CSS – with judiciary
going against us.
If the Parliament also rejects the concept of pay parity with
Assistants of CSS by the rejecting the arbitration award, the result
would be that forever the audit and accounts personnel would have to
be at a lower pedestal in the pay hierarchy vis-à-vis Assistants of
CSS.
Let us remember that audit and accounts employees achieved the long
pending demand of pay parity with Assistants of CSS in 1984/1987 and
also in 2003 not through judicial process, but through negotiations
backed by sustained agitation.
The story is not different today. It should be our endeavour to
defeat the forces that are working against the interests of audit and
accounts fraternity – in and out. For that a strong movement is to be
built up, the local JACs will have to be functioning and active.
The local MPs should be contacted and they be persuaded to write to
the Finance Minister calling upon him to recall the resolution and
implement the award given by the Central Board of Arbitration in CA
ref No 03/2001.
Keeping in mind that any laxity in mobilising the membership and the
MPs of your area would be suicidal for the cause of audit and accounts
personnel for ever to come, the Apex JAC appeal to every one of you
plunge into education and mobilisation of Members of the Association
simultaneously trying to enlist the support of the Members of the
Parliament.
AWAKENING DAY ON 15-02-2011
The Apex JAC calls upon every constituent and its field formations to
observe 15th February 2011 as "AWAKENINGDAY" by holding lunch-hour
demonstration in each office and adopt the enclosed resolution. Copy
of the resolution may please be forwarded to Apex JAC as well as to
the CHQ of each constituent organization.
